Who killed Mrs. Christie and stuffed her in the jelly cabinet? Was it her Speed Date and the suspected mobster, Eddie Ferrini?

In Fool Moon, waitress Rosel Martin asks these questions when Mrs. Christie’s body falls out of the jelly cabinet and lands at her feet. Rosel’s the only eyewitness who can place the suspect, Eddie, at the scene of the crime. She soon receives threats to keep her mouth shut or pay the price. When the police are too intimidated to help, a desperate Rosel turns to her ex high school love, Will Boone, for comfort and support. Her family is appalled that Rosel has connected with Will again since he’s led a life marred by drinking bouts and scrapes with the law. They put pressure on her to stay away from him. Will Boone loves the rush of danger and upsetting authorities, but gave up his "bad boy" reputation for the woman he loves. When his sister dies in a tragic "flying accident" in Will's ultra light, Will falls into depression and guilt, pushing everyone, including Rosel, away. Now Will finds out Rosel may be in danger, and his sister's death may not be so accidental after all. Will vows to pick up the pieces of his life, find the truth behind his sister's death, and reunite with the woman he loves before the next Fool Moon.

When Lady Genneva Harrington stumbles upon the dead body of her former suitor, the count, she fears her hotheaded brother is the killer. Only an hour before, the count threatened to humiliate her by announcing the news of their broken relationship at his grand ball, and her furious brother swore revenge over her humiliation. Could her loyal brother be capable of murder?

Waves of regret and doubt besiege her, and when her brother disappears, she vows to save him from the hangman's noose by finding the count's real murderer.

Determined, she finds herself alone in her search until she meets the notorious rake, Lord Blackbone. Now she believes she has an ally, yet she must risk not only her reputation by associating with the wicked man, but risk her heart as well by trusting him.

A man of wealth and privilege, Blackborne lives by his own rules, and he's never met a woman he can't charm and seduce. Yet, he too has a mysterious connection to the count. Will Blackborne's motives for corroborating with Genneva prove more deadly than any murderer's schemes?
