Meet Penelope Pembroke: owner of the best (only) B&B in Amaryllis, Arkansas (pop. 5492) whos flirting with 50, divorced (Travis Pembroke, had a wandering eye), mother of Amaryllis PD Detective Bradley Pembroke, apple of her father Jake Kelleys eye, best friend of Mary Lynn Hargrove, the mayors wife, and the only human creature tolerated by Abijah, the 18-pound orange tabby who stalks the family home-turned B&B.
Penelope keeps her ear to the ground, her eyes open, and her battered heart in solitary confinement. Then one night, while having a beer and a Reuben at the seedy-though-popular Sit-n-Swill, she meets Tiny aka Sam who is about as much of a biker as she is a belly dancer. She insists on dabbling in danger and disaster despite Sams best efforts to discourage her.
The fireworks begin in Book 1, light up the skies in Books 2,3,4, and 5, and end in one spectacularly explosive display in Book 6. Book 1: The Bogus Biker A police raid on the Sit-n-Swill, a devastating fire at her ex-husbands historic home, and a game of cat-and-mouse with Tiny aka Sam turns Penelopes placid life upside down.
