Pumpkin Ridge — Pamela Grandstaff

Melissa Wright has been in love with handsome Patrick Fitzpatrick since the day they first met, but Patrick had always carried a torch for his widowed sister-in-law Ava. Three years ago when Ava married a wealthy businessman, Melissa thought the spell had finally been broken. Now she has Patrick, a brand new career, and after years of struggling to overcome her past, what looks like a bright future. Bright, that is, until one night a tragic accident sets in motion a chain of events that threatens to change everything. At first, it seems as if a truck driver under the influence took the life of a random stranger, but Melissa has a suspicion that Patrick knows more than he's telling, and that Ava is somehow involved. Luckily, Melissa is friends with the three nosy Fitzpatrick cousins, and with their help, she's determined to solve this mystery no matter what the cost. It's October in Rose Hill, where the scariest Halloween monster may reside in the mind of a beautiful woman.
