A GOOD DAY FOR CHARDONNAY

The continuing adventures of a conflicted New Mexico sheriff and her daughter, who’s too smart for her own good.

Sunshine Vicram was abducted for five days as a teen and then, nine months later, delivered a daughter who’s both the delight of her life and the bane of her existence. Sunshine’s been in love with Levi Ravinder, her kidnapper's nephew, her whole life. Levi’s risen above his family’s criminal background to become a wealthy man, but unanswered questions about the kidnapping keep them apart. Because large chunks of her memory of the event are still missing, Sunshine’s still working to unearth her past even as she takes on cases plaguing the little town of Del Sol, the latest a near-fatal stabbing in which Levi intervened and was hit by the suspect’s pickup truck. Sunshine doesn’t know that the incident will give her a lead in the disappearance of a young boy, a case she worked while a police officer in Santa Fe. And she’s not the only hard worker. Fifteen-year-old fireball Auri, who wants to be just like her mom, is scrutinizing an old woman she thinks is a serial killer. The investigation lands her and Cruz De Los Santos, the young man she loves, into deep trouble. Sunshine’s past, present, and future are all at stake as she struggles to unravel a tangled web of deceit.

A hilarious amalgam of mystery, hot sex, and comedy of errors. Can’t wait for the next episode.
