Charlie’s day went from bad to worse when she tripped over a dead man on her living room floor.
Charlie Foster’s life morphed from shoe store owner and college student to murder suspect in one trip across her living room. Can she clear her name and find out what in the world happened in her apartment before she’s booked for murder one? Or before the real killer gets his hands on her?
Detective Bobby Allen never meant to become his suspect’s alibi. Is it his sixth sense that tells him blue-eyed Charlie Foster is the key to unraveling the clues to his ‘unofficial’ case? Or is it the one night of passion they shared?
Can they ignore the attraction to one another long enough to figure out what the killer’s next move is before they both become casualties in an unknown battle?
Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex, graphic language, violence.
