L.A. shoe designer, Maddie Springer, lives her life by three rules: Fashion. Fashion. Fashion. But when she stumbles upon the work of a brutal killer, her life takes an unexpected turn from Manolos to murder. And things only get worse when her boyfriend disappears--along with $20 million in embezzled funds--and her every move is suddenly under scrutiny by LAPD's sexiest cop. With the help of her post-menopausal bridezilla of a mother, a 300-pound psychic and one seriously oversexed best friend, Maddie finds herself stepping out of her stilettos and onto the trail of a murderer. But can she catch a killer before the killer catches up to her?

Maddie Springer’s life is finally back to normal after having almost been killed in her quest to learn the truth about her no-good lying ex-boyfriend. One good thing did come out of it. Ramirez. But he’s not called her in weeks. The no-good hottie.

Evidently normal or calm is not in Maddie’s aura as out of the blue she gets a call from the father she hasn’t seen since she was little. It’s not a normal I’m-sorry-I’d-like-to-get-to-know-you call, it’s a help-I’m-in trouble call complete with a gunshot as background music, then disconnect.

Her mother is of no help in the info dept. as far as the whereabouts of her father, Larry, go. But Marco, friend and employee of Faux Dad, helps her narrow down the search. When Ramirez finally makes an appearance, he refuses to help Maddie and forbids her from trekking to Vegas or getting involved. Perhaps Ramirez used the wrong word, as Maddie gathers her best friend, Dana (a sex maniac, and now a weapon aficionado) for a Vegas bound road trip.

Surprise! Not only does Marco throw Maddie’s mother off the "trail" of Maddie’s real destination, he decides to make it a road trip for three.

Perhaps Maddie would’ve been better off staying hidden under her covers, because nothing but chaos seems to follow.
