Finlay Donovan Knocks 'Em Dead

I didn't read the first in this series but found this follow-up (which picks up a month after the earlier story) to be a fast-paced, quick-witted romp with Finlay Donovan, everyone's favorite devoted mom, struggling writer, and accidental contract killer once again teaming up with Vero, her side-kick in crime to figure out why someone wants Finlay's ex-husband Steve dead. , The writing style is flat-out clever enough to keep you turning pages, there's a bit of romance mixed in with the adventures, as well as suspense, mystery, and a few twists I didn't see coming. A light-hearted mystery read with laugh-out-loud moments which made this a perfect read for a chilly January.

Thanks to NetGalley for an ARC of this book.
