My Killer Vacation by Tessa Bailey

My Killer Vacation by Tessa Bailey

An all-new, spicy murder mystery from Tessa Bailey, New York Times bestselling author of It Happened One Summer...

It was supposed to be a relaxing vacation in sweet, sunny Cape Cod-just me and my beloved brother-but discovering a corpse in our rental house really throws a wrench into our tanning schedule. Now a rude, crude bounty hunter has arrived on the back of his motorcycle to catch the killer and refuses to believe I can be helpful, despite countless hours of true crime podcast listening. Not to mention a fulfilling teaching career of wrangling second graders.

A brash bounty hunter and an energetic elementary schoolteacher: the murder-solving team no one asked for, but thanks to these pesky attempts on my life, we're stuck together, come hell or high tide.

I'm just here to do a job, not babysit an amateur sleuth. Although...it is becoming less and less of a hardship to have her around. Sure, she's stubborn, distracting and can't stay out of harm's way. She's also brave and beautiful and reminds me of the home I left behind three years ago. In other words, the insatiable hunger and protectiveness she is waking up in me is a threat to my peace of mind. Before I sink any deeper into this dangerous attraction, I need to solve this murder and get back on the road.

But will fate take her from me before I realize the road has been leading to her all along?

Tessa Bailey is a Carlsbad, California native. She packed her yearbook, ripped jeans, and laptop the day after high school graduation and drove cross-country in under four days to New York City. Her most formative life experiences came after that, while working as a waitress at K-Dees, her uncle's Manhattan tavern. She met her spouse, closest friend, and discovered the joy of classic rock within those four walls, while while completing Kingsborough Community College and Pace University's English program. Many failed attempts to get into the journalism field followed, but romantic writing remained to occupy her time.
