Now her life is crazier than the cacti being launched at her car.There is an upside. While serving a subpoena she’s connected with her high school infatuation, Rafe Amato.

He thinks like a cop, he acts like a cop, and he annoys her like a cop. Her upside doesn’t feel so up anymore.When the Las Vegas Police name her suspect number one, Roxy is inches away from losing her job, her home, and her freedom. She needs help. And she’ll take any help she can find—even if it comes from the man who drives her crazy one mile at a time.Vanessa Knight's Cozy Mysteries with a Kick ~ No open door scenes, we’re not that cozy (or un-cozy as it were.)
