Charlotte “Charlie” Larkin believed she'd been cursed when it came to matters of the heart, especially since every man she'd ever been involved with had met an untimely end. To add insult to injury, to-die-for true-crime writer Gus Riley has come to the remote Montana town to research her for his next book!
Following an attempt on Charlie's life, Gus insists the two join forces to pursue the investigation.
Charlie is unwittingly drawn to her sexy protector, but she knows she should keep her distance…Except when Gus insists they fake a relationship to draw out the killer, her defenses crumble at his all-too-real advances. And being in close proximity to Gus is making Charlie forget that the arrangement is supposed to be temporary—a dangerous distraction from a very dangerous killer.
