Lola is in the thick of getting the house/business remodeled by a new company since the previous carpenter tried to kill her. Construction is rolling and provides a new interest for Babs, while Semi and Annalise are still going strong. Dane needs Lola's help when he's accused of murdering a model that was doing work for his company. She starts looking into it and while doing so finds danger herself. In the course of investigating, her and Dane grow closer and she finally meets his horrible snooty parents. Tasked with creating a fundraising event from scratch to impress Dane's mother has Lola scrambling, overwhelmed, and out of her element. Trying to clear Dane's name puts her in the cross hairs of a killer and under the scrutiny of Dane's family and the police. As she makes headway, she and Dane also have surprising revelations and secrets as their relationship moves forward to a new place.
