On the Chase

Want to get your butt kicked? Call her "Corny" or any variation. Private detective Cornelia Osgood prefers "Oz." Make a note of it. Another newsflash: If her betrothed sister thinks Oz is going to wear pink taffeta at the wedding, she's wrong. Dead wrong.

When running down straying spouses doesn't pay the bills, Oz will work security, find lost objects, hunt for missing cats, whatever. Rent's always due. Gas tank's always empty. It's while working security at a concert that she encounters Sam Arden, the smoking hot singer who has the usual trouble with stalkers that the famous and smoking hot are likely to get.

Oz is comfortable with lust but really dislikes that other L-word. Beds are fine, and she's seen her share of them. Sam's bed is really fine. After all, Oz's chronic bad attitude will keep the relationship free of strings. But the trouble with stalkers is that sometimes they get serious, and this one is putting Sam--and Oz--in the crosshairs.
