0The third installment of the Lily Barlow series packs a punch as Southern charm and sharp wit collide with mystery once again.

Lily and the cast of characters she calls friends are back in Marshall, Virginia. The mystery they thought they would solve in Key West, identifying the victim with the purple flower tattoo, still hangs over them, so Lily and Storie come up with another plan to move their investigation forward. Meanwhile, a plot twist pushes Lily to decide how to proceed with Jack-stay best friends or officially start dating. There's an ex-sniper and talk of a paternity test, all while Lily toys with pursuing a degree in criminal justice. Miss Delphine is still in the hospital for tests. And don't forget those tiles on Connie Barlow's tombstone. Surely someone can shed some light on those.

Packed full of romance, comedy, and mystery, this fast-paced and flirty tale will keep cozy mystery and contemporary romance fans enthralled to the very last page.
