Samenvatting:

For fans of Janet Evanovich, Lisa Scottoline, and Susan Elizabeth Phillips — a romantic mystery set in Amarillo, Texas, where the sky is huge and the secrets go deep.

Emily Bernal comes back to Amarillo with $713, a complicated situation, and an ex-husband named Rich who left her for a woman named Stormy. By Monday she's a litigation paralegal at Williams & Associates, working for cowboy lawyer Jack Holden on a case that's about to get complicated in ways neither of them expects.

Their client Sofia Perez shot a man dead at the Ambassador Hotel in front of twenty witnesses. She doesn't want to explain why. She only wants one thing: find her daughter Valentina. The problem is that Valentina, according to CPS and everyone who knew Sofia, doesn't exist — no records, no neighbors who've seen her, just a crayon drawing on a refrigerator door that Emily can't stop thinking about.

The man Sofia killed was a convicted child molester. His partner has disappeared. And when Sofia turns up dead in jail three days later, Emily stops treating this as a case and starts treating it as a rescue mission. One that will take her from the flat wide streets of Amarillo to Jack Holden's family horse ranch in the Sacramento Mountains of New Mexico — and straight into a human trafficking operation with real teeth.

Pamela Fagan Hutchins grew up in Amarillo and spent her happiest times at her family's New Mexico home — and the writing knows every inch of this territory. Heaven to Betsy is the first book in the Emily Bernal Series: funny, heartbreaking, and impossible to put down.

She came back to Texas with nothing. She left with a little girl named Betsy — and a cowboy lawyer who hadn't smiled in five years.
