Secret affairs, hunky gardeners, and housewives desperate enough to
bare it all... welcome to "Magnolia Lane," TV's hottest new prime
time show. A place where L.A. shoe designer Maddie Springer should
be in fashion heaven. That is until the body of a rising young
starlet is found dead on the show's set. Now it's up to Maddie to
sift through a leading lady with a secret, an actor on the verge of
a nervous breakdown, a sexy cyber scandal, and one tabloid reporter
who'll stop at nothing to get the story of the century. Not to
mention Maddie's hot-cold relationship with the case's familiar
lead detective, Jack Ramirez. In a world where secrets, lies, and
deception can earn you an Oscar, Maddie plays the role of a
lifetime to catch Hollywood's hottest killer. But if she doesn't
watch her step, Maddie's fifteen minutes of fame just may be her
last.
Baguettes, bodies, and haute couture galore Shoe designer turned
amateur sleuth, Maddie Springer, is at it again, this time in
fabulously fashionable Paris. When Europe's designer de jour, Jean
Luc LeCroix, invites Maddie to show her creations at Paris Fashion
Week, Maddie's sure she's died and gone to heaven. That is until
Jean Luc's top model is found dead on the runway, stabbed with a
familiar stiletto heel. Sure someone is trying to frame her, Maddie
enlists the help of her friends, including the sexy Detective Jack
Ramirez, to uncover a daring jewel heist, a devious blackmailer,
and even a few skeletons lurking in the closets of those closest to
her. But as the evidence mounts, Maddie becomes the prime suspect
and Ramirez is stuck between a badge and a cute blonde with a
tendency for trouble. Will he stand by her as she attempts to track
down an international killer, or will this be the case that finally
comes between them? One thing's for sure, if Maddie doesn't uncover
the real killer soon, she may be saying her final adieu.
L.A. shoe designer Maddie Springer hasn't seen her father since he
reportedly ran off to Las Vegas with a showgirl named Lola. So
she's shocked when he leaves a desperate plea for help on her
answering machine - ending in a loud bang. Gunshot? Car backfire?
Never one to leave her curiosity unsatisfied, Maddie straps on her
stilettos and, along with her trigger-happy best friend, makes
tracks for Sin City in search of her MIA dad. Maddie hits the
jackpot, all right. She finds not only her dad, but also a handful
of aging drag queens, an organized crime ring smuggling fake Prada
pumps, and one relentless killer. Plus, it seems the LAPD's sexiest
cop is doing a little Vegas moonlighting of his own. In a town
where odds are everything, Maddie bets it all on her ability to
out-step a vicious murderer. She just hopes her gamble pays off...
before her own luck runs out.
Allie Quick has high aspirations - much higher than reporting on
the latest celebrity gossip for the "L.A. Informer," Hollywood's
most notorious tabloid. But if she's going to join the ranks of the
real reporters, she's going to need a headline worthy story under
her belt. Which is just what she gets when the producer of the
trashiest reality shows on TV winds up murdered, and Allie
convinces her editor, Felix Dunn, that this story has her name
written all over it. Between an aging sing-off judge, a family with
sextuplets and triplets, and the star of a little person dating
show, Allie has no shortage of reality stars to question. But when
she finds herself falling for her prime suspect, Allie's
relationship with her editor is suddenly on the rocks, and her life
is in danger. This is one deadline Allie can't afford to miss

Her name is Bond. Jamie Bond. And she is licensed to kill any
pre-nup you can throw at her. Catching cheating husbands became
Jamie Bond's life when her father was shot and wounded on the job,
forcing Jamie to take over the family business: The Bond Agency.
But three years later, the PI is shocked when the gun that wounded
her father surfaces during a high-profile murder trial. Is this the
connection Jamie's been waiting for to finally nail her father's
shooter? But, oddly enough, Derek Bond doesn't seem interested. In
fact, if Jamie didn't know better she'd say he's even trying to
stop her from looking into it. Along with her team of bombshell
investigators, Jamie suddenly finds herself in the middle of a cold
case that's heating up the media, dodging old grudges and new
enemies, while questioning the motives of those closest to her. If
she can live with the truth, the secrets Jamie uncovers may bring
down more than a marriage this time.
