When aspiring romance author Violet Foster stumbles across the brutal murder of Emily Hayes, she becomes swept up in a mystery that could place her whole family in danger.
Devastatingly handsome Nolan Adler is one of Savannah, Georgia's top investment bankers, and Violet's been pining after him ever since he moved in next door. Determined to get Nolan to see her as more than a friendly neighbor, Violet employs the most unexpected person to help. The brother of the murder victim, Finnegan Hayes, who's no stranger to using deceit to get what he wants.
Violet has good reason not to trust a former criminal like Finn, but she's desperate to woo Nolan, and find justice for Emily. When a shocking discovery changes everything they thought they knew, the pair fall into a web of lies and murder that threatens to destroy them both.
