Three months ago, everything changed for Verity (21yo) and she put the work she loved as a private investigator behind her. But then Verity is with her best friend, Elizabeth, when her family is robbed at gunpoint. Elizabeth is overly distressed and begs Verity to help her, so, despite her reservations, she takes on one last case.
Maybe Verity gets a little sidetracked from the investigation, and maybe readers do too, because of the adorable romance that runs into her when she least expects it. The heart of the book is that Verity is afraid to go after the things that she wants because wanting something opens her up to vulnerability, which is a struggle everyone can relate to. Her story is a reminder that, while everything may not go according to plan, ruined plans do not mean that there is no happy solution. Keep trying.
The characters are British. The mature content rating is for alcohol use, illegal activity, innuendo, mild sexual harassment, and kissing. The violence rating is for assault and gun use.
