Maggie Newberry is a whip-smart advertising agency copywriter who's fast on her feet, at least verbally, and a little stunned that over thirty and still hasn't yet found "the one." She needs to put all that aside very fast when the murder of her long-missing sister lands in her lap in her comfortable Atlanta condo and Maggie finds herself flying to Paris and Cannes to find the little niece none of them even knew existed–and trying to stop her sister's murderer before it's too late for any of them to have a happy ending.

When handsome Laurent Dernier arrives upon the scene, it is not clear whether the sexy Frenchman will help or hinder the investigation into Maggie's sister's death. One thing is for sure, in every way that matters, he's a beast!
