Lizzie Hale may be the lucky owner of a successful romance bookshop, Love Under the Covers, but she's decidedly unlucky in love. Though she's read almost every famous romance novelist, from Jane Austen to Nora Roberts, none have helped her figure out how to get--and keep--a man. But Lizzie has bigger problems to worry about. Like murder. When swoon-worthy ranch owner and resident bachelor Brody Pierce is found stabbed through the chest, hearts are heard breaking all over idyllic Tinker's Creek. But when Lizzie's aunt is implicated in the murder, Lizzie is determined to clear her name. Lizzie quickly realizes that Brody was a hunk with many hidden secrets, and she's soon leafing through a stack of suspects longer than Brody's list of lovers. With the killer still on the loose, Lizzie will have to find the truth before this act of passion ignites a fire she can't put out
