When Anna St. James graduated college with a business degree, she never expected to find herself running a boarding house on a small island off the east coast. Now, settled into life as owner and landlady of the Moon River Boarding House on Frostfall Island, Anna couldn’t imagine living anywhere else. Most of the time, Frostfall is a charming island with a busy fishing boat harbor and town that attracts summer tourists. But occasionally, quite occasionally, if that’s a phrase, there’s an unexpected murder. Without a dedicated police force, the locals look to Anna to solve crimes.

Winter has blanketed Frostfall Island and while most of the tourists are long gone, there is still plenty of activity. A hockey tournament brings a large group of ice enthusiasts to Frostfall. Anna and the gang are looking forward to the diversion. Aside from adding a bit of chaos to an otherwise sleepy, snow-covered island, the event stirs up controversy and brings to light old family grievances.

Anna St. James is having a great summer. Frostfall Island is hosting a massive romance reader event, complete with big-name authors, cover models, enthusiastic readers, and best of all, ice cream sundaes. Anna’s sister, Cora, and their eccentric housemate, Opal, are anxious to attend so they can meet their favorite authors. Anna decides to tag along to see what all the excitement is about. And excitement is definitely not lacking. When one of the most popular authors winds up dead, it is up to Anna to find out which of her many enemies was pushed far enough to commit murder.

He’s nothing she needs … but everything she wants. Sometimes I wonder what the heck is wrong with me. I have a perfectly suitable boyfriend. He checks all the boxes—handsome, successful, attentive (sometimes a little too attentive). My young girl daydreams of being carried off by an all-too-charming highway robber or swooning into the arms of an extremely hot swashbuckling pirate were left behind with the rest of my childhood. Then why on earth has the mysterious stranger who floated into town on a ramshackle boat captured my undivided attention?
