Author Mac Sullivan, a best selling novelist, is charismatic and charming and interested. Sherriff Eric Jensen may have been tough on her but he is attracted to Shannon.

When her life is turned upside down, she gets down to business and tries to find the killer. Who's setting her up? I cared for Shannon. Then he's murdered and she finds the body. Her life changes when a blind date with Jerry Sexton goes horribly wrong and he assaults her. She's good at what she does and loves her seaside town of Lighthouse Cove. She took over the company after her father's heart attack. Shannon Hammer runs a home-renovation and home repair business. Now she'll have to nail down the truth - or end up in permanent foreclosure. But as they get closer to prying out the murderer's identity, Shannon is viciously attacked. Shannon is happy to put her rotten date behind her, but when Jerry's found dead in a run-down Victorian home that she's been hired to restore, the town's attractive new police chief suspects that her threats may have laid the foundation for murder.ĭetermined to clear her name, Shannon conducts her own investigation - with the help of her four best friends, her eccentric father, a nosy neighbor or two, and a handsome crime writer who's just moved to town. On a blind date with real-estate agent Jerry Saxton, she has to whip out a pair of pliers to keep Jerry from getting too hands on.

Shannon's home-renovation and repair business is booming, but her love life needs work. But while Shannon can do wonders with a power drill and a little elbow grease, she's about to discover that some problems aren't so easily fixed. In the seaside town of Lighthouse Cove in northern California, everyone knows the best man for the job is actually a woman - contractor Shannon Hammer.
