It’s all in a day’s work for Tara Holloway, the U.S. Treasury’s latest, greatest, soon-to-be-skinniest weapon against the biggest, richest tax cheats in the nation…
When she joined the Criminal Investigations Division, Tara knew she’d be investigating some very real crooks. Forget about waitresses hiding tips from the IRS or babysitters not declaring income! Tara and her partner, Eddie, are going after one of country’s richest, dirtiest felons. Being on a diet doesn’t help Tara’s mood much. Hopefully, by the time the investigation is over, she’ll be sitting somewhere in a string bikini, far, far away…

Fighting crime, like drinking a cup of coffee with low-fat milk and artificial sweetener, is often bittersweet…

This book was hilarious! I seriously laughed so hard reading it. The storyline was interesting as well, about an agent in the criminal enforcement wing of the IRS.
