The Girl in Town

About the book

Having left Chesapeake Valley behind after her mother's murder, Eve is looking for a fresh start.

But no matter where you go, home has a way of pulling you back...

Former NSA agent Eve Wicker has experienced her fair share of hardships and tragedies.

Needing to be closer to her ailing father, Eve decides to take on the role of Sheriff in her hometown.

A decision that unexpectedly reopens old wounds from her past.

When Eve receives a call about a body found in the woods, she heads to the crime scene.

There, she crosses paths with the town's rugged recluse, Roman Pike, a former Marine known for his toughness.

Dealing with egotistical men is nothing new to Eve. What catches her off guard, however, is the shift from conflict to a surprising connection with Roman.

Their newfound friendship is put to the test when a case from Roman's past collides with another murder - that of his ex-girlfriend.

It becomes clear that Chesapeake Valley is no longer the peaceful town it once was.

In the midst of the mountains, the most dangerous threat may just be a charming enigma with a sinister agenda...

From the local bakery to the Sheriff's office, life in the Valley is anything but ordinary.
