A murder at the local hockey rink leaves photographer Callie Cassidy nursing a few injuries of her own, but that won’t stop her from trying to catch the killer—before someone else gets iced…

No one has ever labeled Callie Cassidy a romantic.

As Valentine's Day rolls around and villagers drape hearts and Cupids across every surface, she's just not that into it.

Besides, with her own second-chance romance on rocky turf and her best friend's engagement to a man Callie doesn’t entirely trust, she's in even less of a mood to celebrate the month of love.

So when hockey coach Renata Sanchez asks for Callie’s help getting her annoying ex-husband to leave Rock Creek Village, Callie jumps at the distraction—despite knowing Renata’s brother, Detective Raul Sanchez, will be likely to bristle at her interference.

But before Callie can even begin her investigation, a confrontation between Renata and her ex erupts outside Sundance Studio. Later in the day, the man drops dead, falling from the hockey arena catwalk and landing with a thud on top of Callie. Renata immediately takes top spot on the suspect list, with her boyfriend Ethan MacGregor not far behind.

With time running out to save her friends, Callie must enlist the help of her inquisitive cat Carl and her loyal golden retriever Woody to develop a picture of the true culprit.
