After a life-changing injury, Mel O'Rourke trades in her badge for bed sheets, running a B & B in the quirky mountain town of Pine Cove. Her peaceful life is interrupted when an old frenemy, the notorious and charismatic cat burglar, Poppy Phillips, shows up on her doorstep, claiming she's been framed for murder. While she's broken plenty of laws, Mel knows she'd never kill anyone. Good thing she's a better detective than she is a cook as she sets out to prove Poppy's innocence. The situation gets complicated, however, when the ruggedly handsome Deputy Sheriff Gregg Marks flirts with Mel, bringing him dangerously close to the criminal she's hiding. And just when her friendship with café owner Jackson Thibodeaux blossoms into something more, he's offered the opportunity of a lifetime in New Orleans. Should she encourage him to go, or ask him to stay? Who knew romance could be just as hard to solve as murder?
