Fun Read

Forty-five years ago, Lillian Redmond's Hollywood acting career came to an abrupt end when the studio boss was murdered. Lillian provided the alibi for the prime suspect a gangster. Everyone thought Lillian lied about spending the night with the gangster. Now, Lillian wants to find the real murderer, clear her reputation and write her memoirs so she sets off from Alabama to track down her old friends and gather clues. Chicago private detective Archie Hunter, who worked at the studio when the murder took place, learns what Lillian is planning so he comes to Alabama to protect her. Lillian's granddaughter Lilli is supposed to take her grandmother to Disney World and talk Lillian out of writing the book. When Lilli arrives at her grandmother's house, she finds sexy private investigator Sam Hunter, Archie's son, handcuffed to granny's bed. Sam came after Archie to try to persuade his father to go home. Soon, Lilli and Sam set out on their own road trip to find Lillian and Archie. A couple of pairs of sinister gangsters are thrown in to spice things up.This book provided two romances to follow, between Lilli and Sam and between Lillian and Archie. It was nice that the elder characters romance was hotter than the younger couples for a change. The murderer was easy to figure out early in the story but that's ok because this is a romance not a mystery. The mystery was used as an excuse to get the two main couples alone together in tight spaces for long periods of time and to put Lilli into perilous situations. Overall, well worth the read.
