Synopsis (Goodreads):
Jane Ladling told her side of the story. Now Special Agent Conrad Ryan tells his.Thoughts on Conrad: Falling for the Gravekeeper: Heh. Jane wasn't the only one who fell and fell hard when murderous circumstances had Special Agent Conrad Ryan heading to Aurelian Hills. Conrad was hit by Cupid's love whammy stick, too. He was just a teeeeeeny bit better about hiding it.
Welcome to Aurelian Hills, a small town rich in history and community, and six feet deep in murder.
When a local playboy doctor is found dead in an unearthed grave, Conrad is on the case. But this loner by choice is ill prepared for the cemetery’s quirky owner. A beautiful brunette with a curious nature, a fascination with cats, hats and a talent for distracting him. Doesn’t help when she, well, tries to help, and constantly inserts herself into the investigation.
With suspects stacking up, wild theories flying and a would-be amateur sleuth giving him a run for his money, Conrad must do what he does best. Buckle down, piece together the evidence and save the day. What he won’t do? Fall for the enchanting gravekeeper. Not him. No way.
That said, he was pretty much immediately smitten with Jane's big blue eyes, her quirky ability to lead any conversation into heretofore untapped directions, and those amazing hats she enjoys.
Despite all that, he did try to convince himself that relationships weren't his thing. Jane being Jane (cold medicine induced ramblings and all), she soon had him realizing that pretending he didn't relationships was painfully unfun. Soon the lone wolf was bonding with Jane's best guy friend, eating pancakes with her BFF, attempting to win over her cat, and enjoying Jane's ability to whip up a feast in no time flat.
He also had to solve that murder that brought him into town. While Jane was off putting herself in danger as she followed her own erratic path of clues, Conrad was interviewing witnesses, following up on information, and trying to keep Jane out of serious trouble.
Man, these two were a hoot. *thumbs up*
