A nice, normal life. Is that too much to ask? For Riley Thorn it is. Divorced. Broke. Living with a pack of elderly roommates. And those hallucinations she’s diligently ignoring? Her tarot card-dealing mom is convinced they’re clairvoyant visions.
Just when things can’t get worse, a so-hot-it-should-be-illegal private investigator shows up on her doorstep looking for a neighbor…who turns up murdered.
Nick Santiago doesn’t play well with others. Unless the “others” are of the female persuasion. Wink. He’s a rebel, a black sheep, a man who prefers a buffet of options to being stuck with the same entrée every night, if you catch his drift.
When the pretty, possibly psychic Riley lands at the top of the list of suspects, Nick volunteers to find out whodunit. Only because he likes solving mysteries not because he wants to flex his heroic muscles for the damsel in distress.
All they have to do is figure out who pulled the trigger, keep the by-the-book detective with a grudge at bay, and deal with a stranger claiming he was sent to help Riley hone her psychic gifts. All before the killer discovers she’s a loose end that requires snipping.
There are many things that her family could have passed down to Riley but their psychic abilities is something she wishes there was a return policy on. Just in case her life wasn’t challenging enough between a job that is a nightmare, an ex whose betrayal continues on long past their relationship and that doesn’t even include her living arrangements. When you add in dreams about the demise of your neighbor things are about to get interesting.
Nick has exchanged his career as a police officer into one as a Private Investigator. When he finds himself meeting Riley due to the death of her neighbor his investigation leads them on a wild and wacky journey unlike anything you have seen before.
The characters are so much fun, their interactions are humorous and hot as this story delivers everything you could want and more.
