When her husband died in bed with a 19-year-old college student, Loretta Boggs swore off men. Now she moonlights as Green Valley's finest infidelity investigator. When she's not staking out scumbags, sidelining sugar babies, and catching cheating bastards, she's the fearless leader of Cheated On-onymous, a secret support group for betrayed women that meets in the basement of Green Valley Library.

Fire Lieutenant Buck Rogers is Green Valley Fire Department's newest recruit. He's also renting the house next door to Loretta’s. When a mysterious family secret compels him to seek the talents of a private investigator, he calls in a friendly favor.

But keeping things neighborly isn't easy. Not with Loretta spying on Buck's chin-up routine through his open bedroom window. Not with Buck's shameless flirting and beguiling blue eyes. Buck may be testing her resolve, but Loretta is testing his mettle. Can she get over the fact that he's just so young?
