We have been on a very lo We've been experiencing a very long stretch of temps hovering well above 36ºC with humidity between 70-80%. That's plenty (and much hotter than it used to be here). A friend of mine with similar heritage once said, "Our people were made for the mists," and I've thought about that every summer since... This is how I feel: It's too damn hot!

I absolutely love Mrs. Fields. She's based loosely on my own grandmother (though, thankfully, she was never in such dire conditions). But I laughed out loud at that last sentence concerning Nadine's breath. You nailed the geography! A+ Thank you! I am fond of Nadine. She's very fun to write. I am practically a vampire, so I'm afraid I can't relate to sun lovers, especially in this heat, but I will say stay safe out there!

Trouble always finds Killian...

Excellent deductions and theories. I can't confirm or deny your theories, but your thoughts on Adam and Killian are spot on!

Working in an empty office the next day felt strange. I'd been there alone before when Novak was out on a case or running errands, but realizing I'd be on my own for the rest of the week was different. On one hand, it felt good to think Novak trusted me enough to leave me in charge for that long. On the other hand, I wasn't quite sure I trusted myself. Not that I didn't know what I was doing — answering phones and taking messages isn't exactly brain surgery — but I really wanted to get back

Don't all (okay, most) eighteen-year-olds think they are invincible and always right? And as the owner of a car that could (and should) have historic plates, let's be nice to Bessie. Those old cars were built to last...

I did not become a parent, but I do have the benefit of age. LOL

It's funny...when I wrote this originally twenty-some years ago, I was still very young, not far removed from the painful process of asserting your adulthood to overprotective (and maybe a little controlling) parents, so Adam was very much the bad guy in that scene. When I was rewriting it this year, I realized that, while they both have valid points, Killian was definitely the stroppy cow, so I rewrote it and added the scene with Steve. LOL Teenagers...am I right?

I decided to stop by Asher's house on my way home and let him know that Novak and I were taking the case. As I pulled into the Davises' driveway, I was surprised to see a "For Sale" sign in the front yard of the house next door...my former home. I wondered why Mom hadn't mentioned that she was putting it on the market. Maybe she thought it would upset me, but I didn't exactly have good memories of the place. It had the neglected look of a house that had sat vacant for too long. I hoped

I'm very glad you didn't end up a Frankencow. That would have been an udder disaster! But maybe you could have milked it for some extra attention...
-
Judy will be back soon...and I can neither confirm nor deny your suspicions concerning Killian deal with Novak. (He totally breaks his word...but you knew that. This is reckless, impetuous Killian we're talking about...)
-
I'll just lay the rumors to rest and say that yes, Asher and Caleb are dating.
-
Killian makes lots of mistakes, but he (mostly) learns from them. 😆 Thank YOU!
-
The last question made me laugh out loud. I believe all of these questions will be answered by the end of the book. And thank you!
-
Aw shucks. Thanks, Tris!

I arrived at work early Monday morning, but Novak had still beaten me there. Although his office door was closed, I could hear the low rumble of his voice, making me think he had someone in with him. I soon realized he was on the phone. I waited until he hung up, then knocked on the door, eager to get the conversation over with. "Come on in," he called. I let myself in and took a chair. Novak looked me over. I was sure he could tell I was nervous, but he didn't make an issue of it.

An author's favorite thing to hear... 🖤

Fun fact: The house Steve is considering is based on a real house! I fell in love with it as a kid and it stuck with me. It was a B&B back then, but I think it's just a wedding venue now. The real house is called Merry Sherwood Plantation.

Something...something...Muskrat Love?

He needs to...but will he?

"What?" I gasped. "Did you see the news?" "No. What's going on?" "Oh God, it's terrible. They're blaming Caleb. I don't know where he is, and they're asking me." "Blaming Caleb for what? And who's blaming him?" "The police! They think he did it, but I know he didn't." "Asher, calm down! What do the police think Caleb did?" "They think he killed his father." "They what?" "They think he killed his father. It was all over the news this morning." "Ki

Oh Novak will definitely be involved!
