Three former debutantes and notorious bad girls start their own detective agency and give new meaning to undercover, in this delightfully decadent trio of stories that includes Man with a Past, in which P.I. Geena Cole must help a former classmate prove his innocence. Original.
Gemma Bruce's three novellas are page turners! Three wild debs reform at an interesting boot camp and turn their skills into money-making detective work. In the course of their work, each encounters a sexy love interest and all s well that ends well. Would I recommend this page-turner? And how! Especially if you like gutsy, sexy women who have spurned the idle life of the rich in order to do something worthwhile. My kind of gals. I'm looking forward to Bruce's next book.
Twice won't be enough!

I LOVED this book! As I read I felt I knew the characters, because the dialogue was familiar enough (no holds barred) to have come straight from me or from any of my girlfriends. The female characters are strong women who don't pussyfoot around, unless it's with the divine men they encounter! The ONLY way to improve this page turner would be to make it keep on going! I can only hope we hear a great deal more from Gemma Bruce, and SOON! Cindy T.

"Wicked Widow". On Long Island, Mathilde Sims hired Women-Tek private Eye Hannah "Nan" Harrington-Scott to investigate her wealthy husband Rupert when she notices that a James Bond clone is doing likewise. She decides checking out Damon Connelly is more fun especially when he reciprocates by inspecting her with enough heat to melt her clothing off. "Man with a Past". A decade ago teen Geena Cole helped Cabot Vandermeer III escape town before he is arrested as a killer. He has come back with a need to prove his innocence and a greater desire to kiss the neighbor who helped him flee. Cab hires private eye Geena to find proof that he is not a murderer though his real motive is winning Geena. "Love Bites". Delia Petrocelli hates her life as a boring socialite married to a wealthy loser. Geena assigns her to investigate whether Ben Michaelson killed his last lover as the victim's sister insists. As she stirs her mark's juices, she falls in love with him, but the evidence seems to point towards his guilt, which could mean he might kill his next paramour, her. These three former bad girls turn wicked women investigative romances are fun to follow because the female stars and the men they nab make for a fun fine time for the audience. It will not take a sleuth to know that Gemma Bruce has provided a fabulous who-done-it anthology. Harriet Klausner
