Summary
Carla Connor is a bestselling author struggling with writer’s block and the overwhelming pressure of fame. Seeking respite from the media storm and a chance to reconnect with her passion for writing, she retreats to the small, quiet town of Willowbrook.
Lisa, a retired police officer, owns a cosy independent bookstore in Willowbrook after the tragic loss of her wife. Living a quieter life, she’s content in her small-town refuge, far removed from the chaos of the outside world.
When Carla stumbles upon Lisa’s bookshop, she’s intrigued by the small, blonde owner who seems to know nothing about her fame. But what Carla doesn’t know is that Lisa knows exactly who she is and is a big fan. As their paths cross more often, a bond forms. One that unexpectedly grows deeper, leaving both women questioning just how much their lives might change in this quiet town.

Summary
The woman tosses the dripping tray into the bin and swans off toward her car, leaving Carla standing there soaked and vaguely baffled. She swears those big green eyes lingered on her chest a second too long, but she lets it slide.
She’s practically flashing her golden globes at half of Manchester, and of course, she’s wearing black lace. Because why wouldn’t she be?

Summary
Lisa already knew what to expect. Or rather, who to expect… Carla Connor had been transferred from Humberside Police, and while Lisa hadn’t heard much about her directly, the whispers from colleagues had been enough to form an opinion. Despite the glowing reviews and action-packed stories she’d been told, she wasn’t exactly optimistic about the new arrival.
Or
Carla and Lisa are both detectives, forced to work together despite being polar opposites. Chaos (among other stuff) ensues.
