The last thing Rylie needs is a dead body ruining her big day. Or one of Garrett’s exes. Love is not jealous. But Rylie is. Garrett is the perfect man—rich, mature, breathtakingly gorgeous. Plus, he still wants to marry Rylie after she almost got him killed with her stupid investigations. But those days are over. No more investigating. Period. When a snowstorm blows in with a vengeance, they’re all trapped in the lodge together. And one of them might just be a murderer.

Rylie Cooper is a park ranger. It would seem like an easy enough job—go to work, check some fishing licenses, and do everything she can to move on from her cheating ex. But when bodies keep popping up, Rylie is kept busy with the investigations as much as the hunky guys. The Rylie Cooper Mystery Series: Books 4-6 includes the second set of three stories in a fun and entertaining mystery series readers describe as “hard to put down” with “the right amount of mystery and romance.”

Rylie is staying out of it. No more investigating, no more drama, no more danger. She has enough on her plate training the woman who completely upended her life.

And Rylie not only has a job to keep, but friends she doesn't want to let down . . . again. Until she realizes she may have been the target of the attack and the woman she's training—her nemesis—may have been the attacker.

It isn't every day you find fingers poking up from the ground. Especially while supervising a bunch of tweenagers. But that was just Rylie's luck.

And it wasn't even Halloween. A new clue in a cold case should have gotten the police interested, if not downright excited. But when the police take over, they seem to want to keep the case cold. As does one of the murder suspects. It's up to Rylie to find the truth . . .
