Life comes with stipulations.If you want to fit into last year's swimsuit, you can't eat ice cream and a Gennydoodle cookie after every meal.If you want to go to Heaven, you can't raise Hell on Saturday night and show up in the church pew on Sunday morning, hungover and reeking of cheap perfume.And if you want your hundred-year-old mansion completely updated and remodeled for free, you have to sacrifice.Stipulations, my child.-Granny Bert CessnaNow that Madison Reynolds has agreed to be part of a reality-television home remodeling show, she barely recognizes her own life. The show is an instant success, bringing cameras and reporters right to her doorstep, eager to chronicle her every move in the small Texas town.
With In a Pinch Temporary Services hovering on the thin line between prosperity and extinction, Madison takes on another quirky case, this one concerning a property dispute. Complications turn a simple mission into all-out danger, and once again Madison finds herself embroiled in an intriguing mystery.
Between her cantankerous grandmother, a moody teenage daughter, an ever-starving son, townspeople eager to grab their fifteen minutes of fame at her expense, and a mother-in-law appalled by her undignified foray into the public eye, Madison had her hands full, long before the skeleton was discovered. Now work is interrupted at the Big House, ghost stories abound, more secret passages have been unearthed, and someone is trying to scare her away from her new home.
What she needs is another session of Brash deCordova's unique 'river therapy'... not to mention the kiss that eludes them with frustrating regularity.
What she gets is another round of stipulations and complications.
