Christine Bentley, business owner, mother, and best friend to Bianca and Clara, has what she needs in life and couldn’t ask for more. So she should have been the heir to a fortune, a title, and an estate… she’s happy with her profitable dress shop. Then Trevor Williams comes into her life and what should have been little more than a chance meeting turns into a life-changing moment for Christine. With questions about mysterious steam coming from Trevor’s shop, run-ins that end with Trevor acting like he doesn’t know her, and a failed marriage that made her wary of men, Christine isn’t sure her original instinct about Trevor was right. When an oddly Victorian-dressed couple attack Trevor late one night, Christine’s questions skyrocket but her curiosity has been piqued and she has to know what the bearded man with the man-bun is really up to in his café at night. Is it drugs as Bianca and Clara suspect or is it something even worse? If you enjoy a light-hearted, easy, and relaxing murder mystery book, then this is the book for you.
