Book - 2024

"Her spray-tanned, self-absorbed morning news anchor ex-husband careening back into her life in a bullet-ridden car begging for help was not on Riley Thorn's bingo card. However, her hot private investigator boyfriend Nick Santiago refusing to take the job is... well, less of a surprise. Too bad for Nick that his octogenarian business partner, Mrs. Penny, overrules him and decides to take the lead on the case. Riley's almost murdered ex worms his way into their caseload when a dead body makes it clear someone really is out to get him. And thanks to the mile-long suspect list Santiago Investigations needs all hands on deck. Even the wrinkly, retired ones. With Nick and Riley busy interviewing suspects, their elderly roommates ...wreak havoc in the surveillance department. But it's only a matter of time before Riley's ex brings danger directly to their doorstep.
