The prime suspect in her brother's murder: Max Pershing. He's the man Ava Renault has secretly loved since girlhood--against her controlling mother's wishes. The wealthy Pershings have a longstanding feud with the even wealthier Renaults. Still, Ava believes that Max is innocent...believes it strongly enough to give him her heart. But if he's not the killer, then who set him up? Who's the real murderer?

Another good installment in the series with a serial killer and the two town matriarchs determined to cause trouble for everyone else in town on top of the murders. In this one, high school sweethearts are thrown back together by her brother's death and by planning for the town's best-mother pageant. There's a dash of Romeo and Juliet to their story as they were carefully broken up by their mothers' lies to each other, but now they realize perhaps they didn't have a real reason to quit trusting each other in the past. But how can they make it all work out with the way life has been going in Loomis this spring?
