Description

🔍 A budding new romance. A dead body discovered. Who can you trust? 🔍

Filled with twists, tension and undeniable chemistry, Death at Daffodil Inn is a must-read Cinnamon Falls mystery. Perfect for fans of Gilmore Girls, Pretty Little Liars and the Dream Harbor series.

Spring is blooming in Cinnamon Falls and the annual Daffodil Jubilee is in full swing.

Morgan Taylor, who is reluctantly helping her parents host the event at the Daffodil Inn, wishes she could be left alone to daydream about Will, the dangerously hot single dad she can’t seem to get out her head.

As the Jubilee draws to a close with the Petals and Promises dance, Morgan finally finds herself face to face with Will. But their magical moment is swiftly shattered by a bloodcurdling scream.

A guest has been found dead in the inn’s garden maze, and whispers ripple through the crowd: Murder.

With the inn’s future at stake, Morgan teams up with Will to solve the mystery. Can they uncover the truth before it’s too late, or will their search only end in heartbreak?

Tropes include:

Single dad
Amateur sleuth
Love triangle
Flawed victim
Friends to lovers
Small-town setting

About the Author

R. L. Killmore is the pseudonym for US-based author Necole Ryse. Necole has been writing since she was four years old, when she triumphantly wrote her ABC's on the hood of her grandmother's brand new Volvo. When she's not writing, she's weeping into a stack of unfinished manuscripts, abandoning exercise regimens, scolding innocent children in libraries, or listening to other people's conversations.
