Customer Reviews

NOT a boring, predictable, everyday mystery!

I have read A LOT of mysteries in 45 years. This book stands out of the pack for me. This was written very well. There were multiple mysteries, the humor was well executed (not cheesy), the characters were engaging, and the story was well paced with NO "wasted space" (what I call pages and pages that do not serve to progress the story, that are boring, and only increase a book's page count). The author hooked me right away and kept me fully engaged and entertained until the end. When I finished the book, I immediately ordered the next in the series. I can't wait to get back to Sinful, LA for Fortune and the girls' next adventure.

Pleasant Surprise

Louisiana Longshot is a fast read, there are some assuming sections of this book, and it did take me a little bit to figure out end. It is because of these three triggers of thought that I will most likely read some of the other books in this series.
