Blind Justice

He is the law. She is the noise. And the secrets of Stone Creek are about to scream. Sheriff Jericho North is the Wall of Stone Creek. Silent, imposing, and unyielding, he keeps the peace by burying the past. He likes his coffee black, his town quiet, and his perimeter secure. But when a beat-up van rolls into his territory, bringing with it a chaos agent armed with a microphone and an obsession for cold cases, Jericho's orderly world begins to crack. Skye Sutton doesn't believe in silence. A true-crime podcaster with a relentless need for the truth, she's come to Stone Creek to solve the "Prom Queen Mystery"—a disappearance that has haunted the town for fifteen years. She expects resistance; she doesn't expect to be tackled by a Sheriff who looks like a mountain and smells like gun oil and danger. When Skye's investigation triggers a violent warning, Jericho is forced to become her protector. Trapped together in the snowy isolation of the mountains, the friction between Jericho's brute force and Skye's sharp mind ignites a fire neither can control. But as they peel back the layers of the town's history, they uncover a conspiracy that hits devastatingly close to home. With a killer closing in and a blizzard cutting them off, Jericho must decide: protect the order he has sworn to uphold, or let Skye broadcast the deadly truth that could destroy them both. The "Romance" engine is now powered by a "Mystery" chassis. Order meets Truth in this Grumpy/Sunshine romantic thriller.
