About this series
Wedding bells are about to ring for Jessie Witthun and Charlie Cameron, but their summer in Toronto is about to heat up, and not in a good way! Irena Kovács, the snooty receptionist at Jessie's favourite salon, pulls DC Investigations into a dangerous mystery with its roots in the hotbed of European politics. A sexy and enigmatic stranger with impossible biceps and a talent for showing up where he wasn't invited moves in downstairs. In a dark twist, the circus comes to town, but it quickly becomes the deadliest show on Earth for Jessie and Charlie. And, on top of everything else that might derail her wedding day, Jessie's sister Jeanie returns with a shocking announcement. From Hanover to Toronto to Niagara Falls, Jessie is up against homicidal Hungarians, a stray lion, and now her new nemesis--none other than Rocco Perri, Joe Notto's successor and the self-proclaimed King of the Bootleggers.
Jeepers! How much mayhem does a girl have to go through to get married? If you're Jessie Witthun--a lot!

Quick-witted P.I. Jessie Witthun is determined to be a Roaring Twenties' New Woman, and no amount of danger is going to keep her from pursuing justice or living the life she chooses, but she really is a magnet for trouble! She inadvertently becomes the target of a brutal thug, top enforcer for the biggest crime lord in town. But she also attracts the attentions of two very different men, sexy RCMP Inspector Ed Wright, and dreamboat Charlie Cameron, the son of her mentor.

Set in 1923 Toronto, Canada, and loaded with historical flavour, fascinating characters, humour, and a serious dash of romance, this novel is a fun, addictive read. You won't want the exciting adventures of this spunky young heroine to come to an end. And the good news is that Jessie Witthun's escapades continue, in the Jessie Witthun Mystery Series. You'll be hooked!

Five months have passed since Jessie, Charlie and Ed made a dent in Joe Notto's criminal empire and sent him to prison. And, much to her relief, Jessie hasn't killed anyone! She and Charlie are enjoying their sleuthing partnership at D.C. Investigations, and Ed and Jessie are full into a steamy sexual relationship, despite her lingering love for Charlie. However, when their friend Mr. Fang hires D.C Investigations to solve the cold case disappearance of his wife, Jessie lands on the radar of the Black Lotus tong, a very dangerous Chinese crime organization in Toronto. Once again, her life is threatened by powerful gangsters, and her sleuthing intersects with Ed's investigations for the Department of Justice, much to his frustration. A violent war may be brewing between Black Lotus and a new, mysterious tong that is spreading its tentacles from Vancouver into Toronto. As Jessie will soon discover, there's a stunning link between the case of Fang's missing wife and these dangerous syndicates. And in the midst of it all, she is hired by Charlie's fiancée Celeste to protect a shocking secret. The worst part of it is that Jessie knows this secret will devastate Charlie, but she is painfully caught in the middle. With her characteristic humour, determination and nerve, Jessie Witthun is going to get to the bottom of things, just hopefully not by being dangled out a fifth-floor window!
