Rebecca Mayfield has always been a by-the-book cop until Richie Amalfi enters her life–and makes her want to throw the book at him! Now, Richie’s accused of murder and runs to Rebecca to help him prove his innocence. She’s completely flummoxed by this, but the more she learns about the case, the more convinced she is that he’s not guilty. Will she break all the rules to help him, or do her job … job the way she’s been taught? And what are the consequences for either choice?
As dangers lurk and more deaths happen, Rebecca discovers there’s a lot more to Richie than she thought and a lot more to like than she imagined, she fears not only for her life, but also her heart.
If you’ve missed TV shows like Castle or Remington Steele, you’ll enjoy reading about Rebecca and Richie because they, too, give you mystery and humor with a touch of romance. Start this first book in the best-selling Inspector Rebecca Mayfield “Clock” series, and you’ll soon find the hours seem to fly by …

Loved it! Will definitely read the next in the series.
I’m recommending this book because it appears to be a first in a series, and I’m willing to try the next one in the hope that the protagonist is written as being more self-confident and less sophomoric regarding her casework and love interest.
Loved it, purchased the next one in series.
Enjoyed this book. intend to continue on with the series.
I enjoyed this book tremendously. The writer kept you in suspense; always wondering what the final outcome was going to be. Who was actually the guilty party?

Detective kept suspect with her in order to attempt to prove his innocence in a murder investigation. Many twists and turns to solve the murder.
A fun series. I bought several more in the series. Entertaining characters
Great read, very enjoyable
A good story with interesting characters. A little lingering romance in the air that makes you want to read the next book. Not a romance novel though. It’s definitely a good mystery with a hint of romance that doesn’t gag you. Rulebook Rebecca is a great character that you definitely want to get to know better. If you’re a woman you certainly want to get to know Richie better as well.
Cute story. Interesting characters.
Ok,half hearted effort to be steamy spoils mystery
On O’Clock Hustles held my interest. There was a romantic tension between the two main characters which wasn’t ever consummated, which made me want to read the next book in the series.
Waste of time
