For half Jewish, half Southern Baptist, Miami criminal defense attorney Mary Magruder Katz, life starts to spin completely out of control when a minor fender bender turns out to be an unlikely shot from Cupid’s bow.  The other car’s driver, isn’t just a distracted driver; he’s distracting, not to mention charming, handsome, and mysterious.

Before she knows what hit her, Mary breaks off her engagement, jumps into a sizzling new romance, gets fired from her former fiance’s highbrow law firm, starts her own practice, and lands her first client, Lillian Yarmouth.  Lillian isn’t just any client; she’s the prime suspect in what’s become the Miami society murder of the year.  While investigating Lillian’s alleged crime of passion, Mary finds that this case, like all matters of the heart, is anything but black and white.  Mary has clearly stumbled onto something that has someone seeing red.  February may be the shortest month of the year, but Mary’s got some long days (and nights) ahead.  This month could be a real killer.
