If you enjoy a lot of witty banter and a good dose of romance in your mysteries, you'll adore Savannah Martin and Rafe Collier!Â
âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ âThe hilarious dialog and tension between Savannah and Rafe will delight fans of chick-lit mysteries and romantic suspense.â Jo Ann Vicarel, Library Journal
đ  It took me four minutes longer than the fifteen I had promised before I could pull my pale-blue Volvo â the safest car on the road â to a stop behind the sleek, black Harley-Davidson waiting in the circular driveway. The man straddling the seat matched the motorcycle: dark, muscular, and more than a little dangerous. The T-shirt might as well have been painted on for all that it left to the imagination, and the tattoo peeking from under the left sleeve looked like the tail end of a viper curled around his bicep.
I hesitated before I opened the car door. Real estate can be a scary business on occasion. Those of us who are involved in it advertise our faces and phone numbers all over town, then agree to meet total strangers who call, claiming to want to see an empty house somewhere. Often in an area that isnât the best, like the one I found myself in now. Sometimes â rarely, but it happens â one of us gets attacked. And there was something about this man that suggested that I ought to step carefully. So I did, both because it seemed prudent and because the gravel was difficult to navigate on three inch heels. âSorry Iâm late. Iâm Savannah MartinâŚâ
And then I stopped â dead, if youâll pardon the pun â when he removed the mirrored sunglasses and I met his eyes.
They were as dark as those on a Jersey cow, and surrounded by long, thick, curving eyelashes. Thereâs nothing wrong with my lashes â nothing a liberal application of make-up canât correct, at any rate â but I would have sold my soul to possess his. He could hawk mascara for Maybelline with those lashes. Not that that was the reason I was staring.
âStruck speechless by my good looks, darlinâ?â His voice was amused.
âSorry,â I managed, fighting back a blush. How mortifying, to be caught staring! âFor a second there you looked familiar, butâŚâ
âYou ainât never forgotten me?â He grinned. White teeth flashed against golden skin, and a ghostly memory stirred, like an alligator in a swamp, but it subsided without breaking the surface.
âUmâŚâ I said, distracted. The grin widened wickedly.
When a few seconds passed while I didnât say anything else, he added, âBeen back to Sweetwater lately?â
So he was from back home. Well, it made sense. The drawl, slow as molasses, was pure South, and he wasnât someone I had met recently, or I would have remembered.
âA few weeks ago,â I said slowly, running mental mug shots past my inner eye. âYou?â
âThatâd be telling.â Another grin curved his lips and the alligator stirred again. I concentrated, and almost had it, but just as I was about to reach out and grasp it, it slipped through my fingers once more.
âYou couldnât give me a hint, could you?â
I smiled hopefully. He contemplated me in silence for a few seconds before he said accommodatingly, âSure. Columbia High.â
I nodded. Of course. He was someone I had gone to high school with. That explained it. Long enough ago that I wouldnât necessarily remember him right off; not so long ago that I had forgotten entirely. But there had been hundreds of students in my high school, from all over Maury County and beyond. How in the world did he expect me to recognize him after all this timeâŚ?
And then the brick dropped, or the alligator reared, or whatever. I jumped back. âOh, my God! Rafael Collier. YouâreâŚâ
âGuilty as charged.â He made a little mocking half-bow. His voice was pleasant, but his eyes were anything but. They had turned as black as the motorcycle heâd been riding, and approximately twice as hard. I swallowed and opened my mouth. And put my foot in it.
âI thought you went to prison.â
He lifted an eyebrow. Just one; the other didnât move so much as a fraction of an inch. âThat was twelve years ago, darlinâ. I got out.â
Obviously. I swallowed again and took another step back.

If you enjoy your cozy mysteries with a good shot of romance, and a love triangle with a sexy bad boy and a Southern gentleman in the mix, then you will love this. Very reminiscent of the Stephanie Plum books, but the laughs are louder, the romance is sexier and there is a great murder mystery to top it off.â Bella McGuire, Cozy Mystery Book ReviewsÂ
