Abby Shaw has returned to her hometown of Paradise, Colorado—leaving behind a career in corporate law and a cheating husband—to take over her aunt's candy shop, Divinity. But her sweet new life quickly turns sour when a fellow merchant dies in a fire. With all clues pointing to arson—and Abby's brother as the number one suspect—she must sink her teeth into finding the killer.
