About this book

"Event planner Pepper Pomeroy is making the most of her current unemployment by arranging a surprise for her sister, Felicity. Warren, Felicity's boyfriend, plans to lure his lovely lady into a private jet, propose, and whisk her away on a romantic vacation.

Everything goes so well when Warren pops the question that he suggests Pepper do this sort of thing professionally. But before she can get her new business off the ground, there are some disturbing questions. Like who's the dead guy Pepper finds in the ladies' room of the jet hangar? Is it possible Felicity's high-flying fiance has been hiding more than the engagement ring? Pepper's not married to the idea of having a criminal in the family, so in order to protect her sister, she takes off in pursuit of a killer..."--P. [4] of cover.

With her girl-next-door looks and quaint doll museum, Ciara O'Malley seemed innocent. But she was secret agent Griffin Black's number one suspect for a terrible crime and he knew how to get close enough to uncover her illicit activities. By seducing the truth right out of her.
