White Offerings

A beautiful flower . . . love or obsession?

Ari Adams is sure that her best friend, Jane Frank, doesn't have to worry about the mysterious orchids that appear in more and more personal settings. One of Jane's spurned lovers is likely the identity, but the aid of a professional puts both their minds at ease. After her own recent brush with murder—nearly her own—Ari is relieved to solicit help from local private investigator Elizabeth "Biz" Stone to uncover the identity of Jane's secret admirer. What Ari doesn't expect are the sparks that fly every time she and Biz meet. Her heart is already spoken for by Detective Molly Nelson, and with orchids appearing in increasingly creepy circumstances, it's not the time to confuse it. Then an orchid arrives for Ari . . .

In this sequel to Paid in Full, Ann Roberts's realtor-turned-sleuth Ari Adams explores love, obsession, and dilemmas of the heart.
