Smugglers on the hunt, a police chief on the run, lost loot, and a dead wedding planner have the Mackinac Island regulars riding in circles.

After solving two murders, bike shop owner Evie Bloomfield thought life on Mackinac Island would settle into boredom until she finds out Nate Sutter, island police chief and once-upon-a-time under cover cop is on the run. Some bad-ass guys from Nate's Detroit days think he stole money from them in a champagne smuggling operation, and now they're headed to the island to get their loot. Evie is determined to help Nate because he's a good cop; Nate is determined to keep interfering Evie and island locals out of harm's way, and the crooks are determined to get their money.

To add to the island's problems, there's a dead guy on the dock and the new wedding planner is more interested in playing bedroom bingo than ordering bridal bouquets. With the help of Fiona, Evie's BFF and local newspaper editor, Evie is determined to prove Nate innocent, figure out how champagne smuggling, bodies on the dock, and a bad wedding planner are tied together, and not wind up taking a long walk off a short pier herself.
