Plot Summary
Two paranormal romance authors, Emily Freemen and Selma Alvar, discover that life doesn't always go as planned and fiction is more than words on a page when they find themselves in the 1950s throwback town of Camden, Michigan.
The two women discover more than the budding publishing careers they'd hoped to create at the Romancing the Mitten book signing when they meet the town's sexy mechanic, Casper Snojason, and mesmerizing ladies' man, Kian Lucas Nordin.
Separated and struggling with the strangeness of the small town the girls work to uncover the secrets of Camden while falling deeper for the too-good-to-be-true men.
Now they just need to decide if they need to call for help or remain locked in Camden forever.
