But a bigger shock is yet to come, as bestselling writer Beatrice Penn (DeLuise) suddenly takes ill onstage - the victim of a fatal dose of poison. Though bad blood between Ethan and Beatrice makes him the prime suspect, Angie knows he's incapable of murder. And while she's promised to cooperate with Detective Kyle Carter's (Webster) probe, she's not about to sit idly by when Ethan is charged with the crime. Angie launches her investigation with the same sharp instincts and clever strategies she brings to matchmaking and begins to unravel the mystery behind Beatrice's death. As she and Kyle grow used to crossing paths, they continue to find common ground, and perhaps something more. However, in her determination to find the real killer, Angie may unwittingly be putting herself at risk.
