When Carley Chapman's smarmy ex-husband, Paul, arrives in Creedence, Colo., hoping to win Carley back, Deputy Knox Garrison claims to be her fiancé to protect her from Paul's unrelenting advances. Knox has always had a crush on the pretty, blonde hairdresser, so pretending to be in love isn't much of a stretch. For her part, Carley appreciates Knox's protective streak and can't deny her attraction to the hunky cowboy, but her disastrous marriage made her swear off relationships. The pair have a natural ease with each other, and the line between real and pretend blurs as fake dates lead to steamy nights, regular dinners, and even pet adoption. Though the entire town comes together to cheer on their relationship, neither Carley nor Knox, who both wrestle with abandonment issues, wants to be the first to admit their true feelings. Marts does a fine job imbuing her protagonists with both tenderness and strength, and the matchmaking townsfolk are a hoot.

"Death in White Pajamas: At the country home of Sam Richardson, a group of actors have gathered along with their somewhat sinister producer Basil Barnes and a playwright whose star is rising in the theater scene. The drama isn't staying in the production, as competitive tension in the air begins to rise between the three actresses Clara, Angela and Deirdre. But nobody expects to find Deirdre's murdered body on the grounds wearing, for some unknown reason, white pyjamas... An inspector Meredith mystery of the kind John Bude does best; a well-drawn and authentic period setting, and a satisfying mystery following the traditional rules and style of the golden age of the genre. Death Knows No Calendar: The "locked-room" element of the mystery is simple: Lydia Arundel, a fairly wealthy painter, is found shot dead in her locked studio, with suicide seemingly impossible due to the position of the weapon. Many figures in the local village, Beckwood, have a motive for her murder: the Reverend, who seems to have had an affair with her; her husband, who inherits all her money; Hawkinge, who used to be in love with her but now wants to marry Honororia, and Honororia herself, who saw Hawkinge with Lydia. All suspects were in the area the night she was killed, and local bobby Major Boddy is left to untangle the curious web. Once again, Bude is on form playing with the pettiness and pocket intrigue of village politics, and the reader is treated to heaps of misunderstanding, double-crossing and subterfuge even on this small-scale case"--
