A honeymoon in Maui. A luxury beachfront resort. A handsome wealthy new husband. A vicious murder. After all, this is PI Miranda Steele we're talking about. And where Miranda goes, trouble follows. That lovely honeymoon gets hijacked when she finds the body of a popular fire dancer on the beach. Of course, she has to investigate. What choice does she have? But things get more complicated when she discovers her sexy new husband has been keeping some pretty serious secrets from her.

Thirteen years ago, Miranda Steele's abusive husband stole her baby and gave it up for adoption, then kicked Miranda out of his house. So, she remade herself. Thirteen years later, the smart-talking, hot pepper-eating loner came to Atlanta hoping to find her daughter. Instead, she met Wade Parker, a successful PI and the most eligible 44-year-old bachelor in town, and joined his investigative agency. Since then, she's solved several murder cases and faced her past - for the most part. But nightmares still haunt her, and she wonders if she can handle the truth.
