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...
ï»żWhen Savannah Martinâs fellow Realtor and friend Lila Vaughn is robbed during an open house, Savannah rushes to the rescue with tea and sympathy, or at least a really good lunch and a shoulder to cry on. However, Lila seems more peeved than distraught, and her main gripe is that the sexy robber who tied her to a kitchen chairâfor her own goodâdidnât follow her suggestion to tie her to the bed instead.
Lilaâs description of the man fits Savannahâs old school-mate Rafael Collier to a T. Rafe has recently turned up in Savannahâs life again, and he isnât above doing a little breaking and entering. Metro Nashville Homicide Detective Tamara Grimaldi is of the same opinion, and when Lila turns up dead, tied to her bed and strangled, Rafe becomes a suspect.
Now Savannah must get busy finding the real murderer before Detective Grimaldi can arrest the wrong man.
