It seems like an easy enough job. Go to work, check some fishing licenses, and do everything she can to move on from her cheating ex. But when bodies start popping up, Rylie gets a rude awakening.

Rylie hadn’t grown up wanting to be a park ranger (or move back home in disgrace) and she wasn’t sure what it involved, but she had to start somewhere. Rebuilding a life after being lied to, cheated on, and evicted, isn’t an exact science. She thought her first day on the job would be all fresh air and nature walks.

There had been two men in that boat. Two. Rylie is positive . . . ish. Living with her parents may be driving her crazy, but not crazy enough to start conjuring up men in her mind—regardless of how long it had been since she’d had a date. As an urban park ranger, Rylie is practically surrounded by men all day, every day. Making up more in her head would only complicate her life further. When she confronts the one man remaining in the boat, he’s more eager to discuss her online dating profile than any possible wrongdoing.

If Rylie had a checklist for her life it would look like this: Full-time job . . . check. Serious boyfriend . . . check. No dead bodies in months . . . check. On paper it looked good. Fantastic even. But in reality, she still lives in her parents' basement, doesn't feel like part of the ranger team, and knows a body is bound to show up at any moment. When she discovers a teenage boy with severe hypothermia, Rylie has to work with one of her biggest rivals to figure out what happened.

Rylie Cooper is a park ranger. It would seem like an easy enough job—go to work, check some fishing licenses, and do everything she can to move on from her cheating ex. But when bodies keep popping up, Rylie is kept busy with the investigations as much as the hunky guys. The Rylie Cooper Mystery Series: Books 4-6 includes the second set of three stories in a fun and entertaining mystery series readers describe as “hard to put down” with “the right amount of mystery and romance.”

It isn't every day you find fingers poking up from the ground. Especially while supervising a bunch of tweenagers. But that was just Rylie's luck. Ever since she'd become a park ranger, bodies seemed to show up all over the place-on a trail, in a catfish trap, on a frozen beach. Now, they came from below. Like zombies. And it wasn't even Halloween. A new clue in a cold case should have gotten the police interested, if not downright excited. But when the police take over, they seem to want to keep the case cold. As does one of the murder suspects. It's up to Rylie to find the truth . . .

Rylie is staying out of it. No more investigating, no more drama, no more danger. She has enough on her plate training the woman who completely upended her life. But when someone is brutally attacked, Rylie is conflicted. Surely, the police can handle the investigation. They have the experience, the training, the knowledge. And Rylie not only has a job to keep, but friends she doesn't want to let down . . . again. Until she realizes she may have been the target of the attack and the woman she's training—her nemesis—may have been the attacker.

It’s just a fishing tournament. A boring old—Who are we kidding? When is anything boring when Rylie’s around? It’s a simple event—the person who catches the largest fish wins. But rumors of cheating are on the air, and Rylie’s assigned summie is ready to catch those dirty, rotten criminals. Whether they exist or not. Between the tournament and planning her wedding, Rylie has her hands full. When two fishing superstars—who just happen to be exes—enter the event, Rylie knows things are about to get out of control. Will Rylie be able to stay out of trouble this time?

The last thing Rylie needs is a dead body ruining her big day. Or one of Garrett’s exes. Love is not jealous. But Rylie is. Garrett is the perfect man—rich, mature, breathtakingly gorgeous. Plus, he still wants to marry Rylie after she almost got him killed with her stupid investigations. But those days are over. No more investigating. Period. When a snowstorm blows in with a vengeance, they’re all trapped in the lodge together. And one of them might just be a murderer.

A week ago, Rylie thought she'd be on her honeymoon with the love of her life, sipping fruity drinks, and soaking up the sun. Never did she think she'd be on a beautiful island solving a murder. Now, women are turning up dead at the resort and the authorities seem to be covering up the truth—that the deaths aren't accidental, but murders. Can Rylie solve the mystery before anyone else is murdered?

Rylie Cooper has been coping with life in a brand-new way… by reading. Her best friend is an ocean away. Her love life is in pieces. And she's been living inside mystery novels. Then four bodies turn up at the Colorado reservoir. Four very different deaths. Four very specific crime scenes. Rylie recognizes every single one of them. Because she just read them. Someone is working through a cozy mystery series—book by book, murder by murder—and the author is somewhere between prime suspect and only expert. Rylie has to figure out which one.
