Unexpected Sparks

**Gina has upped the heat quotient in this expanded version of the original publication.  Don't miss the all new second edition!**

Falling in love is complicated enough without adding murder to the mix.

In the midst of bookstore owner Kate Shannon's growing feelings for a much younger Nikki Harris, a fatal fire in an insurance office across the street adds another challenge—and one that could be deadly.  Subsequent fires make life hot as they rush against time to unravel the mystery surrounding the death of Sam Madison, all the while dealing with their newfound attraction.  Will the unexpected and seemingly uncontrollable sparks blind Kate and Nikki to the true identity of the arsonist?  Or will they be able to stop the killer before anything else goes up in flames? 

Unexpected Ties

Sometimes the ties that bind can be deadly.

When Stephen Elliot ends up face down in his chocolate mousse at the Historical Society's annual dinner, Kate Shannon and Nikki Harris are swept up in another mystery, much to Kate's chagrin and Nikki's delight.  Family ties run deep in the powerful Elliot family, who pull a lot of strings in the tiny town of Truro, and it's very possible that one of those snarled knots has led directly to murder.

Meanwhile, Kate and Nikki have family threads of their own that become more complicated when Kate's grandmother unexpectedly returns from Florida, and Nikki's parents, out on the farm, start taking a sudden interest in the couple's unexpected romantic relationship.  Can they sort out all these tangled strands before the killer cuts the lifeline that binds them together?
