Elise Wells travels to Santa Fe, New Mexico, for her mother's funeral and to investigate her death. She needs to find out what really happened to her mother, and if someone killed her -- who?
Elise's guilt overwhelms her because she didn't come when her mother needed her. She determines to make up for judging her and for alienating herself for so long.
All the while, she fights her growing attraction to Ramon Castillo... a man she's not sure she can even trust.
After several 'accidents', Elise realizes someone is trying to run her off, or kill her, before the reading of her mother's will. What is the secret the Castillo family will go to any length to hide?
