My ReviewJennifer Ward’s To Do List: 1) Turn in my business partner and his lying, cheating, law-breaking client to the SEC for insider trading. 2)Cooperate with the FBI. Do not kiss - scratch that. Do not yell at Special Agent Nicholas Kelly, the FBI agent leading said investigation. 3) Discover a dead body...Jennifer Ward, MBA, CPA, and business consultant, likes a nice, orderly lifestyle. Schedules and To Do Lists are what gets her through the day. So when the by-the-numbers fashionista finds her business partner was breaking the law, she turned him in to the SEC. Which brought the FBI to her door, and her ordered world to an end.But that was three weeks ago. Things couldn’t possibly get worse. Right?Until Jen discovers her business partner dead in his hotel room. With Nic the handsome FBI agent dogging her every step, Jen must use her skills to discover the truth. Who killed Henry? And will she be next?
It was a really enjoyable read, there are some hilarious scenes, like the meeting with the drag queen.
The protagonist is Jen, Lark's best friend (the protagonist of the Lark Davis Series). She discovered insider trading in the company she owns jointly and soon finds her partner dead. She has to investigate and this leads her to confront Nic, FBI agent in charge of finding out what happened.
All the characters are bizarre and funny, I really loved Jen and Nic, the chemistry between them is really strong and their dialogues are very amusing. The setting is a very particular and extravagant town, I'd love to visit it if it really existed.
This book is a spin-off of the Lark Davis Series but can be read as stand alone, for a better understanding of the story I recommend reading at least one book from this series.
The story flows pleasantly, it's short and engaging with lots of humor and a bit of romance.
To read for those who love funnny and romantic mystery
