Will Jake be able to help solve the case before any more people get killed and can be keep Livia and her young daughter Diana safe? Although it was a bit of a slow burn, the story was easy to follow and I enjoyed the crime/detective elements mixed in with a romance storyline. At first Jake enjoys his new life in solidarity, but during a fun community activity a woman's bones are discovered, and Jake finds himself thrust back into his detective world as he tries to uncover the truth behind this gruesome discovery.

Amazing right? This is where the book loses a star for me. But then one day Jake discovers he has been left an remote cottage in the country by his late reclusive uncle, and decides to leave his old life behind in search of solitude in the quaint countryside.
