Spring has arrived in Cinnamon Falls, and the annual Daffodil Jubilee, hosted by the town's charming Daffodil Inn, is in full swing.
Morgan Taylor, who is reluctantly helping her parents host the event, wishes she could be spending the day celebrating with her best friend Nia or daydreaming about Will, the dangerously hot single dad she can't get out of her head.
As the Jubilee draws to a close with the twilight Petals and Promises dance, Morgan finds herself swept into the moment she's long dreamed of when Will asks her to dance.
But it's not long before the lustful evening air is shattered by a bloodcurdling scream. A guest is found dead at the centre of the inn's garden maze, and whispers ripple through the crowd: Murder.
