A disgraced designer. A famous client with a secret agenda.


Maggie must dodge a determined producer and his many minions to get at the truth behind her humiliating public downfall, while hiding out at her sister's B&B renovation.

Maggie Harper has spent her adult life building a career as a home designer to the stars in California. Working on a new reality TV show seems like just another feather in her cap, especially since it will mean creating something perfect for a certain hunky action star.

When it all goes horribly, mortifyingly wrong, there is only one place she can go to dodge the determined producer who engineered her downfall: Echo Key and the loving arms of her older sister, Olivia, and their firecracker of an aunt, Coretta.

Her reputation in tatters, all Maggie wants to do is hunker down and wait for some new scandal to draw attention away from her. But that would be giving up, and Maggie is no quitter.

A strong circle of women friends and family are just what she needs to overcome the professional humiliation and personal heartbreak, and her sister's B&B project, Inn The Shallows, is the safest space to share her secrets with the ones she loves.
