Dead to the Max is the fast-paced adventure of the irrepressible Max Starr, a thirty-something, down on her luck accountant with the unfortunate gift of being psychic. Desperate to get to the bottom of why she's suddenly become the Bay Area's newest Sylvia Brown, she embarks upon a roller-coaster ride of adventure geared toward solving a murder, only to realize too late that solving that murder just might be the death of her. She's fast coming to the conclusion that not only is she psychic, she's also possessed by the spirit of the murdered woman. But Max has more than murder plaguing her, she's got a matchmaking ghost, that of her dead husband Cameron, who wants her to find romance with hunky Homicide Detective Witt Long. He's got such big hands and big body. Poor Max is dying to know if other parts are equally as big. And dying just might be the operative word here.

When Max Starr tells Detective Witt Long she's had a second vision of a murder, Witt knows he's in for another crazy adventure. The police aren't going to solve the crime without Max divulging what she saw, but that will only move her straight to the top of the suspect list. For the second time in less than a month. So Max goes on the hunt for the murderer herself, dragging a reluctant Witt along with her. But the deeper she ventures into the dead woman's life, the more she sees that nothing is as it seems and everyone has something to hide. As she stirs up a hornet's nest, Max soon begins to fear she might be the next victim. Even scarier, Witt makes it clear he wants her. Badly. Just how long can she resist him? When it comes to Witt and her very sexy visions about him, she suspects that resistance is futile.

When phone sex operator Bethany Spring is murdered, the brutal slaying plunges Max Starr into the woman's kinky after-midnight world. Barely surviving this crash course in Phone Sex 101, Max turns once again to hunky detective Witt Long to help her crack the case. Needing Witt for his detecting skills is one thing, but meeting his mother is scarier than facing down a cold-blooded killer. What commitment is the irresistible detective going to extract from her next? Max almost prefers being possessed by a spirit.
