They were cousins who shared decades of secrets.

And now one of them is dead.

Britta Baxter, beloved fitness influencer and estranged wife of a surgeon, gave up city life to start anew on their grandma's property overlooking Lake Shetek in southwestern Minnesota. After she convinces her cousin, Maxine Thomsen, to revisit the same lake where they'd spent their summers together as kids, Maxine is shocked to learn the boy she loved as a teenager lives across the same quaint bay. Although repairing the decades-old relationship between Maxine and Noah seems possible, a dark ending has already been set in place.

When Britta's body is discovered floating in the bay, Detective Josephine Kelly is called in to assist in the murder investigation. With a near-perfect record, Detective Kelly's sharp instincts rarely lead her astray. Once she senses something is amiss in the neighborhood, she'll apprehend a suspect no one saw coming.

A puzzling excursion, a jewelry heist, and a veteran's mistakes. Traumatized after her last case, Bexley Squires merely hopes to rebuild a solid reputation as Papaya Springs newest P.I. When Brewer Hawkins, her former high school classmate turned sexy biker, ends up in Mexico with amnesia, she can't turn her back on him.

Framed for a crime he didn't commit, Brewer is just the cherry on Bexley's rapidly melting sundae. It's on her to save her BFF's career, and Bexley's ex-boyfriend, detective Grayson Rivers, refuses to move on alone.

With a to-do list rising faster than the cost of living in Papaya Springs, finding out she might be falling for a wanted felon is the least of her worries. The suspects have noticed her probing and she needs to stop them—before Brewer's next on their list.
