The perfect first date. Good food, romantic setting, good vibes. Until a woman screams and a shot is fired. As a trauma counselor, Stacie Maroni doesn’t hesitate to barge through the fray. Nor does her date, Detective O'Hare. With the case falling outside his jurisdiction, O’Hare and Stacie should simply be witnesses. Emphasis on should. As contradictory information emerges, things get complicated, and Stacie’s involved whether she likes it or not. Good thing O’Hare has her back.

The last thing Stacie Maroni expected to find in the break room was a dead guy. And even worse, a dead guy with her name, phone number, and office location in his pocket.

Although these events don’t seem to be linked, Stacie is in the thick of things and sleuthing for her life. At least the two mysteries distract her from the attention of, and her attraction to, the handsome detective.
