About this eBook

Riches to rags … Chaos has never been so supreme … Now a suspect herself … No calm in sight …

Being a suspect in the murder of her ex-lawyer is not the fun Doreen thought it would be. And, of course, she’s been ordered to stay away from the case, … but she can’t help being interested. So she enlists Mack’s brother, Nick—her new lawyer—to help.

Mack’s first priority is to clear Doreen as a suspect. No one in their right mind would seriously believe she’d done the deed, of course. … But, the fact is, she had both motive and opportunity, so clearing her of suspicion isn’t the walk in the park that Mack would like it to be. Especially not when she insists on sticking her nose into his case, where it doesn’t belong.

And just when Doreen is certain things can’t get any worse, answering her doorbell shows her that this nightmare has just started. Who just walked into her life? None other than her soon-to-be-ex-husband, … Mathew …

Doreen is really coming into her own. Evaluating, weighing, living and loving life. This time Doreen is the prime suspect as her lawyer (ex) is found murdered. She is not the prime suspect for long, Mac does his due diligence and exonerates her. Not fast enough to keep her from investigating on her own, well with the help of her now lawyer and Macs brother, Nick. Her neighbor Richard pops up now and then, ok fess up who else thinks of Tool Time and the neighbor over the fence. Mac and Doreen appear to take a step closure in acknowledging their friendship could be changing into something deeper, albeit with a little help from Doreens ex popping up. This mystery has several casts of characters that could be involved, or are involved with twists and turns that keeps you turning the page for a resolution. Thank you for the arc! I freely volunteer my thoughts and opinions.

This one is a lot closer to home for Doreen as not only is it her ex friend and lawyer Robin who is found dead, but she is also a suspect and her ex husband is in town. This is the first book in the series that I really did worry that Doreen would be in grave danger and as much as I agreed with Mack she shouldn't look into the murder I also know she needed to in order to get closure from her ex who fyi is a total creeper! There are some good twists and a few heart stopping moments as we slowly find out why Robin was killed and why. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Once again Doreen and Mack have mysteries and murder to deal with. Ex-lawyer, soon to be ex-husband, other ex's as well. In the meantime Doreen is still finding herself, maybe not quite ready to roar but becoming more independent. And her legion of fur and feathers are on duty. A gentle romance, a page turner to be sure. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
