So Carlotta Wren's life hasn't turned out as she'd planned. She didn't plan for her parents to skip bail for a white-collar crime, leaving her to raise her brother. She didn't plan on having the silver spoon ripped from her mouth and forgoing college to work retail. She didn't plan on her blue-blood fiancé dumping her. And she didn't plan on still being single ten years later, working at Neiman Marcus, with no idea where her fugitive parents are. But she's coping. Until— —her lovable brother is arrested, and the hunky cop decides to reopen her parents' case. —her brother becomes a body mover for the morgue, and his sexy boss gets Carlotta involved. —her former fiancé's wife (a good customer) is murdered, fingering Carlotta. With three men in her life, Carlotta has added motivation to help bag a murderer to keep her own well-dressed body from being next on the list!

I was half-way through the book before I finally started to get into it, but once the hooks were in you couldn't drag me away from it. It's entertaining, the protagonist is likeable...I might even go so far as to say it's a thinking man's Stephanie Plum novel. There is definitely more to this than ...
Absolutely loved it! I've had this on my shelf for a while and I am so glad I decided to pick it up. I loved that I had no idea who the killer was until he showed himself. I had theories but I was completely wrong lol. I like when a book takes me by surprise. I can't wait to read more of this series...
This book was more than I expected even though it was nothing like I thought it would be. I was told that it was akin to Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series. What I found was a beginning to a series much more like something Charlaine Harris would have written, without all the sex. There were int...
Stop!! Stop!!. I can hear all my friends yelling already. Eric, why are you reading this crap? (Well, actually, I'm listening to it.) Hey, it's like watching TV. I started this series because it was recommended to those who like the Stephanie Plum series, and I have to admit Grandma can be hyster...
