Simply Scandalous

When Claire Montgomery wakes up in her mother’s ransacked shop with a bloody knife in hand and no memory of what happened, she does what she and her mother have always done: she runs. But this time, she’s on her own.

With only a puzzling photo left behind by the intruder, Claire flees to Willow Creek in search of answers, seeking refuge with a stranger who once knew her mother.

Time is running out for Special Investigator Alex Rowe to find the body that will keep a murderer behind bars. With the safety of his hometown at stake, he doesn’t have time to check up on the stranger his great aunt harbors, even if his gut tells him the mysterious but alluring Claire hides more than her real hair color.

All Claire’s ever wanted is to settle down in one place, but growing comfortable anywhere has only ever ended in heartbreak.

With Willow Creek charming Claire as much as the handsome, passionate Alex, is it too much to hope that she’s found a place and heart to call home?
