Cozy fans will embrace the Domestic Bliss series." —Carolyn Hart, Edgar Award-winning author of Letters from Home "An appealing heroine and warm, genuinely winning voice." –Publishers Weekly "A fast, breezy read." –The Mystery Reader "A great mystery that puts you on the edge of your chair until the end!" –Fresh Fiction Smart, talented interior designer Erin Gilbert is becoming great friends with her free-spending client, Laura Smith, whose stunning mansion is brimming with rare, expensive antiques…until she realizes the fabulous treasures she so carefully acquired for Laura have been completely replaced with fakes! When Laura's explanations sound as phony as the furniture, Erin is compelled to dig deeper into Laura's glamorous life—the real antiques have got to be somewhere—until her investigation is interrupted by a murder! It seems Erin has revealed the same cunning con artist who all but ruined her handsome-but-bitter arch-rival, Steve Sullivan. Erin wants answers but Sullivan dreams of revenge; so when detectives are called in, their perfect suspect is…the charming (almost, maybe, not quite, perhaps boyfriend) Steve Sullivan himself! Now Erin must chase down the real killer before the cops drag Sullivan away in cuffs…that would put a real damper on their budding romance!
