Private Investigators Meg and Charlie Schock are back for the third installment of the gripping Schock Sisters mystery series. Growing up, the Schock sisters lived across the street from a serial killer—at least according to their mother. She’s spent years spying on the man and tracking his every move, but no concrete evidence has ever been found. When Helen Schock joins a citizens cold case … citizens cold case group and uncovers a link between her suspicious neighbor and three murdered women found in Virginia fifteen years ago, she does the one thing Meg and Charlie never expect…she hires them to prove she’s been right all along.
As the three work together to expose the truth and bring justice to the dead, they uncover an unexpected twist to the case…and find themselves hunted by a killer desperate enough to destroy them all.

3rd Tango is a strong third addition to the wonderful Schock Sisters series by Misty Evans and Adrienne Giordano. I love almost every book written by this awesome duo both together and individually but this series has a special hold on my heart. Yes, I have a crush on both their guys and Matt has had my heart since the first time I read his story. It is great to see Taylor with her engagement ring as much as it is to see her working with the group. It has to be tough working for the by-the-book FBI and coordinating with the Schock Sisters and Matt!
We have been hearing about their mother’s obsession with her neighbor and now we get to discover the real story, a fun and intense experience!
I loved this fast-paced, well written book with unforgettable characters, danger, loyalty, humor, family drama, suspense, plot twists and turns. I was completely captivated from the beginning and couldn’t stop reading until I was finished with the book. I love private investigators Meg and Charlie Schock and their dynamic with the other characters especially their mother who hires them because she believes there is a serial killer living across the street. If you enjoy well crafted, can’t put down mysteries, don’t miss “3rd Tango” by gifted authors Misty Evans and Adrienne Giordano. I received an advance reader copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving my review. I enjoyed it so much, I purchased a copy to read again.
Misty Evans and Adrienne Giordano have delivered another great mystery in the Schock Sisters series! This writing duo delivers just the right amount of mystery, suspense, and action to keep me turning the pages and I just loved the additional romantic elements for both sisters that were woven into the story.
This series is checking off every box I have when it comes to mysteries. The stories are engaging, the characters are real and have an emotional depth that really allows me to connect with them, and the mystery element always has a few surprises and twists and turns that keep me reading at full speed to find out how things are going to turn out. The Schock sisters are such wonderful characters, and I am loving watching them both grow in not just their roles in their investigation business, but as people. I also love how close and tight-knit the Schock family and Meg and Charlie’s work family are and no matter what, how they always have each other’s backs. And the use of humor throughout the book totally works for me!
Although this can easily be read as a standalone, I would recommend starting from the beginning to get a true appreciation for the characters. Charlie and Meg are both strong leads and every character that has been introduced, including their love interests, adds even more depth to both characters.
This is definitely a book and a series to add to your TBR for any lover of mysteries, romantic suspense, or crime stories.

Charlie and Meg Schock are back! And this time they’re bringing their mother. 😉
Ms Evans and Ms Giordano have done it again–given us a mystery that I, at least, honestly wasn’t 100% how things were going to turn out at the end until…we got to the end. Is their mother right about the neighbor across the street (she’s been convinced he’s a serial killer since the girls were young)? Are Charlie’s suspicions about her mother’s co-investigator correct?
Even more importantly–will JJ and Jerome survive lunch with Charlie and Meg’s parents? And does Meg have enough pot brownies to see her through it all?
Read 3rd Tango to find out!
(You should also read it because it’s a darn good story with fabulous characters that will keep you guessing and turning the pages. Some events from prior series books are alluded to, but you don’t have to have read them yet to enjoy this one. Chances are you’re going to want to read them after reading this, though–consider yourself warned.)
Rating: 4 stars / A-

I am still really enjoying the Shock sisters. This series is progressing at a great pace. In 3rd Tango, it really became a family affair. All hands were on deck. I loved how Meg and Charlie took on their mom, their neighbors and still managed to stay sane. The mystery was well crafted as was the reveal. The end was especially great. While this is a series, I’m not sure that this one would have to be read in order. Other than to experience the Shock family from the first moments.
Charlie and Meg Schock are bringing their boyfriends to lunch with their parents. They are worried that it will be a disaster. The lunch lives up to expectation when their mother hires Schock Investigation to prove her neighbor is a serial killer. The sisters agree to appease their mother but suddenly they find the facts show that the neighbor may be involved in some dirty dealings. I didn’t expect that their mother could be right. 3rd Tango is a suspenseful story. The characters pulled me in. I liked them. Charlie and Meg are strong and feisty women. They have different strengths but they work well together. With help from JJ and Jerome, their boyfriends, they are getting answers. I couldn’t wait for all the pieces to come together. Unfortunately their mother keeps inserting herself in the case and gives everyone a headache. I hated how she wouldn’t listen and puts herself in danger. This plot is complex and has unexpected twists. Misty Evans and Adrienne Giordano have combined mystery, romance and humor. 3rd Tango kept me entertained. I’m a fan of the Schock Sisters.
I received a copy of this book which I voluntarily read and reviewed. My comments are my honest opinion.
3rd Tango is my favorite of the Schock Sisters series. It was interesting from the very beginning and there was never a dull moment in their action-packed investigation. Meg and Charlie’s mom got them into so many crazy situations. What an adventure! I can’t wait for the next one!

Love the Schock sisters and their family. Charlie and Meg’s mom always seemed a little crazy because she has a fixation on the neighbor. She has believed for years that he is a serial killer. Now she wants to hire Charlie and Meg to investigate him after she enlisted the help of a group who thinks he may be linked to some bodies that were found in another state. They only go along with her because they figure if they can give her some info one way or the other, she will give up her obsession. But, could their mother be right?
The third in this mystery series by Adrienne Giordano and Misty Evans is just as great a read as the first two have been. If you haven’t read the other books, you can still enjoy this as a standalone. The sisters, Meg and Charlie Schock run an investigative company. Both are well qualified and this time, it is their mother who is the client. She used to be an investigative reporter, and suspects a neighbor of being a serial killer, so she hires her daughters. As with all these mysteries by this author duo, nothing is quite as simple as it seems. An entertaining ride as always, I enjoy trying to figure out the mystery and this time I only figured out part of it so was still surprised at the end. Fun mystery series!
