Book Review: WHISKEY SOUR - An Addison Holmes Mystery #2 by Liliana Hart

About the Book

Addison Holmes is at it again. 

When priceless Russian gems are stolen on their way to Savannah and the courier is murdered, all the clues lead back to an escort service that seems above reproach. But looks can be deceiving.  

Throw in a sexy detective and a dangerous FBI agent, and Addison finds out very quickly that she's in way over her head. But nothing is going to stop her from getting her man. 

Review 

What's a girl to do when she's laid off from her teaching job and is accident prone? Addison moves home with her mother and  decides to become a PI with the help of Nick, sort of. When some jewels are missing and call girls are turning up dead, Addison, Nick, Matt (FBI), and Kate are all on the case. Addison gets it into her head that she'll find the killer. 

This is a fun, easy read, not to be taken too seriously. Hart mixes in humor with murders and thefts, along with two men fighting for Addison's attention. The pace is steady and of course, Addison gets her man - the killer, that is. Although it's part of a series, and some background on the relationship with Nick might be helpful, it can easily be read as a stand-alone mystery. (I haven't read the first one, only the 8th one.) Despite the murder, this is a light escape.
