Lime Ricky — Jill Winters

A tart new comedy of love and murder from the national bestselling author of Just Peachy

The man is Class A: When Gretchen Darrow awoke to a fi re in her New York City apartment, she also woke to firefighter Rick Pallucci-so cocky, so intimidating with his ice-blue eyes, and so...built. The heat is Code 4: A weaker woman might have come unglued, but not Gretchen. This California chef moved east for one reason-a plum job at The Cooking Channel, and she's not letting anything distract her ever again. Or so she thinks...

The suspect is Prime: Who knew Gretchen's new job would yield so many backstabbers, jaded divas, and one fresh corpse? The only person she has on her side is a certain sexy lug-and cracking this case is going to set off enough sparks between them to set the whole town on fire.
