This is not a love story. It isn’t a knitting story either, so if that’s what you’re looking for, try the DIY section four rows over. As for me, all I want is a normal date night at the carnival, eating funnel cake, scoring prizes, and snuggling in the Tunnel of Love. But when one of the rides ends in a death toll, it trips my need to help in a world too often void of it. Problem is, I’m supposed to be staying on the down-low, and playing the hero is high profile.
Now, my boyfriend and I are on the run, with more mayhem, carnage, and Carolina swamp muck than you can shake a radioactive raccoon at. If we can’t rig this high-wire game of pursuit in our favor, I’ll be wishing for the inside of a body bag.
Will our red string be severed before we can cross the state line?
