    A hookup turned deadly. A jealous cowboy with a temper. Can rebel Maggie Killian flip the script before she becomes the next lost cause? 
    “Hutchins’ Maggie is an irresistible train wreck—you can’t help but turn the page to see what trouble she’ll get herself into next.” 
    —Robert Dugoni, #1 Amazon Bestselling Author of My Sister’s Grave 
    Washed-up alt-country rocker turned professional screwup Maggie Killian is drawn back to Wyoming by one dangerous temptation: Hank Sibley, the former bull rider who broke her heart fifteen years ago. When Maggie stumbles into Hank’s wholesome, Sunday-school-teaching girlfriend at a saloon, she does what she does best—reaches for whiskey and bad decisions. 
    One liquor-soaked night later, Maggie wakes up tangled in the sheets of a younger man… who turns up dead minutes after leaving her bed. 
    Stranded in cowboy country with a broken-down truck, Maggie suddenly finds herself surrounded by men with secrets, motives, and grudges. As she searches for the killer, she’s fighting two equally volatile forces: her unresolved chemistry with Hank and her growing affection for local whiskey. 
    When the police start circling Maggie—despite a string of unsettling break-ins at her guest cabin—she realizes she’s on her own. To stay on the right side of the bars, she’ll have to catch the killer before the cops decide the man she suspects most is the jealous, angry cowboy she still can’t resist. 
    Live Wire is a sharp, sexy romantic mystery and the first standalone novel in the Maggie Killian trilogy—part of the addictive What Doesn’t Kill You romantic mystery super series.
