She swore off men following a nasty divorce. His late wife was murdered and he’s determined to avoid another relationship. Can these two put their fears aside and find love again, or will his past put more than just her heart in danger?
Riley Randals has a quirky habit of making decisions based on the presence or absence of lucky
signs. Cardinals, four leaf clovers, ladybugs, and rainbows can make or break her day.
Now she's in the middle of a nasty divorce. If she can just get those final divorce papers in her hot little hands, she vows to swear off relationships for good.
Riley fears her soon-to-be ex is becoming dangerous, so she contacts the best Private Investigator in Virginia
for help, Perry Von. Just so happens, he's also the first guy who ever broke her heart.
When Riley's ex goes over the edge, Von rescues Riley --- but she quickly realizes that Von is leaving her weaker kneed
than the abduction, and swearing off relationships is easier said than done.
Eight years ago Von stopped the 'Goto Hell' killing spree by snagging the beast who murdered his
wife. Von doesn't know that Frank Goto has been paroled
and is looking for Von to get his revenge, or that Goto has his eye on Riley as the bait.

Adams Grove is mourning the loss of Pearl Clemmons, known for her award-winning chocolate
pecan pie, and the best unsolicited advice in the county.
When Jill returns to settle her grandmother’s estate she’s greeted by a Clydesdale sized guardian dog
who doesn't seem to be earning his stripes (although he drools on them pretty well), and Garrett Malloy,
the fiancé she left behind a year ago.
The biggest problem in Adams Grove used to be hunters bagging a few more deer than the legal limit,
but a string of mishaps has this sleepy little town wide awake and locking its doors.
Just when Jill realizes the 'real find" is the love she thought she'd lost with Garrett,
Jill has to fight for her life, and protect Garrett's, as she stands between a desperate man and a secret from Pearl’s past.
