    He’s the rugged, hard-working guy I made the mistake of kissing last year. A friend. And worst of all? The two of us are the prime suspects in a murder. 
    Archer Jones is a tall, gorgeous man with a killer smile. When we kissed at our friends’ wedding last year, we agreed it was a mistake. We’re friends. Nothing more. 
    Until he walks me to my flower shop’s front door—and we discover a body. 
    The villainess who’s been terrorizing our town for the past five years is lying cold on my business’s floor…and the murder weapon happens to belong to Archer. 
    And as hard as it is for the detectives to believe, neither of us have any idea how it happened. 
    Prime suspects. Former flings. Good friends. 
    All we have to do is figure out who killed Ethel Brown, and we can go back to how things were before. 
    But in the process, I discover Archer’s more than just a pretty face with calloused, working man’s hands. 
    He’s got a possessive streak and a dirty mouth. 
    He’s not afraid of jumping into an icy river to save me. 
    And he sounds good when he’s reading my own spicy romance novels to me. 
    But if we can’t clear our names, our budding romance could end before it has the chance to bloom. 
    And that’s before we realize the real murderer has been waiting for their chance to make a move…

    Ernest Hemingway’s landmark short story of a veteran’s solo fishing trip in Michigan’s rugged Upper Peninsula, featuring a revelatory foreword by John N. Maclean. 
    “A century since its publication in the collection In Our Time, “Big Two-Hearted River” has helped shape language and literature in America and across the globe, and its magnetic pull continues to draw readers, writers, and critics. The story is the best early example of Ernest Hemingway’s now-familiar writing style: short sentences, punchy nouns and verbs, few adjectives and adverbs, and a seductive cadence. Easy to imitate, difficult to match. The subject matter of the story has inspired generations of writers to believe that fly fishing can be literature. More than any of his stories, it depends on his ‘iceberg theory’ of literature, the notion that leaving essential parts of a story unsaid, the underwater portion of the iceberg, adds to its power. Taken in context with his other work, it marks Hemingway’s passage from boyish writer to accomplished author: nothing big came before it, novels and stories poured out after it.” —from the foreword by John N. Maclean

But, as mind-numbing as her job is, things are about to get worse. Xavier Adams, her self-absorbed boss, calls Vanessa into the conference room and fires her. The reason? Her facial expressions. Apparently, her resting bitch face is awake, and it doesn't matter that her sales numbers are stellar or that she organizes office events. After a girls' night of schnapps and imagining revenge, Vanessa awakens to find that Trisha is more literal than she thought and has implemented a twelve-step plan to sabotage the company. Vanessa wants nothing to do with it. She wants to file for unemployment and move on with her life, possibly with Carter Beckett, the cute cat-loving unemployment rep assigned to her case. But when Xavier contests her unemployment and ruins her shot at her dream job, Vanessa is all in. She soon discovers that something is rotten at the company, and it's more than Xavier's bare feet.
