A bizarre string of crimes brings them together, however. Caroline notices that the landmarks featured in her photography calendar are being sabotaged each month in order of their appearance. Even worse, the crimes are accelerating from vandalism to violence. She enlists Mick’s aid in profiling the criminal and serving as her personal protector.

Crandall has written an interesting mystery romance with well-developed characters and a strong sense of place. The cold winter nights described in the book will make you want to curl up under a blanket as you read. The physical intimacy is implied rather than described, and you’re likely to guess the culprit long before Caroline and Mick do, but this sweet romance will draw you into the story and make you care about the characters.
