Here’s the Blurb: Addison Jones Greer, divorced mother of two teens, is the
executive director of Cowtown Theatre. When someone murders a member of the
board in the costume room, suspicion rests on everyone involved with the
theatre, including Addie. She has angered some board members because she wants to fire the
artistic director. Although she’s warmed him several times, he continues to go
over budget for productions.

Mike Riley, Fort Worth homicide detective, hates that he caught this
case. His sister-in-law dragged him to a theatre fundraiser where he met
Addison, the first woman he’s wanted to pursue a relationship in a long time.
Not about to happen now.

Addison hasn’t ventured into romance since she caught her
now ex-husband in their bed with his secretary. Trust isn’t something she’s
good at. How could she trust someone who seems determined to think she’s
capable of murder? Or worse, thinks that her kids might be involved?

Excerpt:
Addie looked up at a knock at the door. “Come in.” She opened the lower desk
drawer, pulled out a box of generic headache pills, and popped a couple in her
mouth. Mike Riley stuck his head around the door as she swallowed. She choked
on the water. He hurried around her desk and patted her on the back.

“You, okay? People aren’t generally thrilled to see me, but they don’t usually
choke.”

Still gasping, all she could do was nod her head while tears trickled from her eyes.

“Seriously, you okay? I can do the Heimlich.”

Finally, Addie gulped and whispered, “I’m okay.” While she thought she might like to see
how the good detective’s arms felt around her, the Heimlich wasn’t exactly what
she had in mind.

She took another swallow of water and breathed in deeply. “Okay. I’m fine, now.”
She wiped tears from her eyes, certain from the heat she felt that red covered
her face. “I’m sorry for the unorthodox greeting. I was taking a couple of
pills for a headache. Have a seat, please.” She waved to one of the chairs in
front of her desk. She should’ve worn something nicer than warm-ups, but she’d
had no appointments out of the office and wanted to be comfortable. “Do you
have any more information about the murder?”

“We’re still investigating.” He lowered himself into the chair she’d indicated. “I
wanted to follow up on something I’ve heard—”

“I’m sure it’s about the fight Clay and I had,” Addie jumped in. “I think everyone
heard us. The door was open.”

“Yes, we heard about it from almost everyone. Seems like you said—”

“That if he messed with the theatre, I’d make him sorry. I guess if he were the one dead, I’d be your prime suspect.”
