This third in a series is a quick, fun read.”—BooklistIt takes a special kind of best friend to realize that what you need most in your life is a murder investigation.

Or on the staff of fashion designer Emile Trebask, once Garth’s client and now Gwen’s business partner?While racing to solve the ad world’s most notorious murder on deadline, Molly must also grapple with her manipulative editor, who always has her own angle on everything. To further complicate matters, one of her best friends may have either found true love or a relationship that will destroy her. And Molly’s own ex-boyfriend is circling the story, trying to get his own scoop—and get back into Molly’s good graces. Can Molly handle all these competing interests? Can her current boyfriend, NYPD homicide detective Kyle Edwards?Never one to sidestep a challenge, in work or in love, Molly digs in her four-inch heels and presses forward.

But Molly Forrester finds both to be less than true in this sassy sequel to her first adventure, Killer Heels.Molly’s journalism career is stalled.

Perhaps meeting over a dead body isn’t the best way to build a romance after all. When her best friends, Tricia Vincent and Cassady Lynch, suggest a trip to the Hamptons, Molly seizes the chance to get away from her worries for a while. But what starts as an entertaining, champagne-filled weekend of “sipping and sniping” at the ultra-rich explodes into disaster with a dead guest of honor, a blue-blooded family feud, a jealous lover or three, and a murder investigation that stretches back to Manhattan and strains Molly and Kyle almost to the breaking point. And through it all, Molly must contend with an icy female homicide investigator who may be competing with Molly on more than a professional level.With a penchant for saying the right thing—even if at the wrong time—and the enthusiastic help of her two devoted friends, Molly Forrester tackles another murder with zest and style. But will her sharp wit and droll insight be enough to protect those she cares about most? Sheryl J.
