Sawyer Sweeney is finally in love. She's also now the party planner for the Hollis Historical Society and enjoys spending a few days a week working at the Old Town Winery. Her mother is pleased and Austin has come around to accepting her and Ryan's relationship.
Things seem to be going her way until Poppy Penderghast makes things official with Jackson Hemming. The new couple of Hollis creates some buzz, but Mrs. Hemming is none too pleased. She knows Poppy is going through financial trouble and she's afraid Poppy will weasel her way into the Hemming's fortune. Mrs. Hemming makes a deal with Sawyer to split the new couple up but before Sawyer is able to make good on her word, she finds Poppy dead, face down on the country club golf course.
Now the detective on the case, Mason Connor, has Sawyer as his prime suspect and Ryan is doing everything he can to keep her off his list. Sawyer realizes she has to find Poppy's killer before Mason finds more evidence to stack against her and arrests her for murder.
