    When former prosecutor and mystery writer Jenn Herrington's veterinarian husband Aaron is summoned to examine new performance horses at Big Horn, Wyoming’s WP Bar Ranch, he discovers the obnoxious California owner dead in his Jaguar at the bottom of a sheer, icy roadside cliff. Deputies arrest their beloved friend and contractor Black Bear Betty, whose tractor left tire tracks up to the cliffside, and whose disgruntlement with Glen is no secret. 
    Unlicensed in Wyoming, Jenn enlists the aid of Kid James—a painfully youthful and inexperienced local attorney whose distracting crush on Denee Hopkins has the hots for Aaron—to represent Black Bear Betty. Jenn has her own distractions: her writer’s block on her next Wyoming Mystery for her agent, and her obsession with proving former prosecutor Alfred "Pootie" Carputin is the man responsible for the nightmares and issues that have sent her to a chaplain to work through the traumatic memories of a school shooting when she was only four.  
    Jenn and Kid find no shortage of suspects in Glen’s death but can’t get past the damning evidence against Black Bear Betty, until the Herringtons take a dog sled and glamping getaway into Walker Prairie. Far from civilization and help, what they encounter there make for the best weekend of their life . . . or their last.

    A disgruntled bear fiancé. A wanted familiar. A hairless cat named Lonnie. For Hazel Kinsey, it's just another day in Paradise Falls. 
     
     
     
    When Hazel's familiar Tizzy the Squirrel fell in love with another familiar, they had no idea her furry pal would gain witch magic. 
     
     
     
    Apparently, that's a big no-no for the High Familiar Clowder, the council who rules all familiars. When the Clowder shows up in Paradise Falls to decommission Tizzy and send her to the in-between, Haze defies the stick-in-the-butt jerkfaces by refusing to trade in Tiz for a new familiar. 
     
     
     
    But the Clowder means business. They strip Hazel of her magic, leaving her no better than a human. Worst of all, she's lost the mating scent she shared with her bear-beau, the hunky-handsome Ford Baylor. Without it or her witch powers, she can never be a real mate for him. 
     
     
     
    With only seventy-two hours to find a solution to her familiar and fiancé problems, Hazel and pals must find a way to stop the Clowder, get Hazel witchified again, save Tizzy and her true love, and oh yeah, battle sinister forces intent on glomming as much power as possible. 
     
     
     
    Yep. Just another day in Paradise Falls.
