*this is a standalone romance* What does an obnoxious attorney, a coed gone wild, and a corpse have in common? Shep and Serena are about to find out the hard way. Spending summer in Hollow Brook will be murder. When Serena lets her roommate talk her into going to an exotic nightclub that promises to make all of her wildest dreams come true, she’s mortified to find the man behind the mask has an all too familiar obnoxious face. But it turns out Serena and Shep share more than a penchant for soft restraints—they share a propensity for trouble. Finding a corpse places Serena and Shep right at the top of the suspect list, and try as they might to unravel the mystery themselves, they discover that time has already run out for the two of them. Or has it just begun?
