From the NY Times Bestselling duo that wrote Agnes and the Hitman, the first book in a new series. Liz Danger has come home after fifteen years to deliver a giant teddy bear for her mother''s birthday (color: Guilt Red) when a cop with a great ass picks her up for speeding, fixes the missing lug nuts in her back wheel, pulls her out of a ditch, doesn''t give her a ticket, and helps her avoid her family. This is a man with real potential. The rest of the day goes downhill, starting with her finding out that the only man she''s ever loved is getting married to Lavender Blue, the most beautiful woman in southern Ohio. Really, the best thing in her day is that cop with the lug nuts. Vince Cooper is still not sure about being a cop in Burney, Ohio, a place he just moved to six months ago, since Burney is full of some fairly odd people spaced between long stretches of boredom. Still, considering the dangerous, difficult life he had before Burney, boredom is good. Then he picks up Liz Danger for speeding and life gets a lot more interesting. And when he picks her up again in the local bar the next night, he starts to realize that "interesting" doesn''t begin to describe what''s going to happen to him if he pulls Liz into his arms and his life. As Liz navigates her dysfunctional family, her flamboyant boss phoning in from Chicago, her still-interested ex, her bridesmaid dress from hell, a dachshund with issues, a disaster of a wedding, assault, murder, and three hundred and ninety-three teddy bears, Vince shows up to get her through, even though he knows that the real peril for him in Burney is the one who came with her own warning label, Liz Danger.--Provided by publisher.

"Liz Danger is a ghostwriter, trapped in her old hometown for the summer. Good thing she has Vince Cooper, her recurring one-night stand living down by the river in his old diner car, making her feel happy and safe and normal until September when she''ll be leaving again, although she''s starting to wonder if she really wants to. Vince Cooper is a cop in a town with a shady new housing development that''s bringing a lot of armed strangers, a corrupt mayor, a police chief boss under fire, and an idiot blogger stirring up trouble. Good thing his recurring one-night stand is sticking around for the summer. The only drawback? He''s not looking forward to the empty space Liz Danger will leave behind her when she goes in September. Treacherous small-town politics, a rust belt biker gang, a widowed ex who doesn''t understand the word "no," a seven-year-old in need of a temporary mom, a flamboyant blonde boss who needs watched at all times, exploding family secrets, arson, murder, and three hundred and ninety-two soaking wet teddy bears later, Liz and Vince will come face to face with the madman burning down their town, and even worse, with their imploding relationship."--

As she attempts to restore the decaying Dreamland amusement park, Mary Alice Brannigan must contend with the five most powerful demons in the world that it houses, as well as a shady new beau, a crooked politician, a supernatural raven, an inexperienced sorceress and more. By the best-selling authors of Agnes and the Hitman.
