What to expect
Bec Harrison flees Detroit for Minnesota after a bitter divorce, trading heartbreak for the icy shores of Lake Superior and a fresh start as a detective with the Duluth Police Department.
Theo Zaccardo owns The Mashed Spud, a popular Duluth LGBTQ bar where her no-strings lifestyle keeps her haunted past at bay. That is until a body appears in her dumpster—and her very own pizza cutter turns out to be the murder weapon.
When Bec is assigned the case, unexpected chemistry clouds the investigation and cracks appear in Theo's carefully crafted world. The line between duty and attraction begins to blur. Can their unexpected attraction overcome painful pasts and long-buried secrets?
