About this book

"When former professional bodybuilder Candy Emerson is found dead in her Rehoboth Beach gym, the police rule it a tragic accident. But is it? Reluctant to pay a huge double indemnity claim to the beneficiaries, Candy's insurance company sends novice investigator Colleen Fitzgerald to look into the case. What Colleen finds is: Candy's unstable ex, who now lives with an explosively jealous lover...Candy's business partner, whose personal problems have driven him deep into debt...Candy's most-hated rival on the bodybuilding circuit, whose career Candy is rumored to have sabotaged...A violence-prone drug dealer and suspected gaybasher whom Candy wanted arrested...Handsome lesbian aerobics instructor Gillian Smith, whose relationship with Candy was more than just a business arrangement...After the aerobics instructor gives Colleen a full-body workout that leaves her breathless, the investigator has a hard time keeping her mind on the case and her hands off Gillian. Blinded by her white-hot passion, could Colleen be overlooking a motive for murder?" -- Publisher's description.
