Hatta Mcfarlane & her pet Yorkie, Sprout, take on an evil force that is dead set on acquiring ranch land in the beautiful Salmon, Idaho area to create a resort for their wealthy friends & political allies. Every time the evil group noses around someone gets murdered.
The team has the support of Grumpy but supportive Sheriff, Earl Hobbs, and the community at large, especially the leading women who make sure Hatta eats right (mostly sugary pastries) while investigating. Cade Weston, a local handsome rancher provides moral support and is very protective, which comes in handy when evil men decide Hatta is a liability and would like to get rid of her.
A sample review from for book one of the series:
I loved this book! The story captivated me from the beginning to the end. Hatta is living in California when she learns she inherited a flower shop and home from her grandmother in Salmon, Idaho. The inheritance comes with a stipulation: she must live there and run the shop for 90 days. She is barely settled in when the community’s most hated and feared man is killed and some are looking at her suspiciously. Her grandmother’s spirit is there to help and guide Hatta while letting her find her own way.
The characters and atmosphere are what makes this book really special. I finished the last sentence with a feeling of warmth and love and acceptance from the book.
Thanks to Lily Briar for allowing me to read this ARC.
