Savannah Martin has always been a good girl, doing what was expected and fully expecting life to fall into place in its turn. But when her perfect husband turns out to be a lying, cheating slimeballâand bad in bed to bootâSavannah kicks the jerk to the curb and embarks on life on her own terms. With a new apartment, a new career, and a brand new outlook on life, sheâs all set to take the world by storm.
If only the world would stop throwing her curveballs...
When Savannah wakes up alone on what is supposed to be her wedding day, she isnât sure what to think. Did her fiancĂ©âbad-boy TBI agent Rafe Collierâdecide he couldnât face being shackled to one woman for the rest of his life... or is something more sinister going on?
Savannahâs mother Margaret Anne, in Nashville for the nuptials, is certain she knows the truth: her future son-in-law has always been an ill-bred cad, and leaving his pregnant girlfriend practically at the altar clinches it. But the people who know Rafe arenât so sure. Wendell Craig with the TBI and Tamara Grimaldi with the Metro Nashville PD suspect foul play, and set out to prove it.
Shortly, a dead woman turns up in Savannahâs house. Rafeâs son David goes missing from church camp on the Cumberland Plateau. And a shadowy figure from Rafeâs past is stalking them allâa knife-wielding serial killer who likes to hurt women, and who has a score to settle.
Now Savannah must solve the murder, find David, and avoid getting herself killed... or she can kiss her happy endingâand Rafeâgoodbye.
