“Fans of laugh-out-loud romantic suspense will enjoy this new author as she joins the ranks of Janet Evanovich, Katie MacAllister, and Jennifer Crusie.”—Booklist, on An Affair to Dismember
“Elise Sax will win your heart.”—New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis
Three months has been Gladie Burger’s limit when it comes to staying in one place. That’s why Gladie is more than a little … than a little skeptical when her Grandma Zelda—who is more than a little psychic– recruits her into the family’s matchmaking business in the quaint small town of Cannes, California. What’s more, Gladie is also highly unqualified, having a terrible track record with romance. Still, Zelda is convinced that her granddaughter has her clairvoyant “gift.” But when the going gets tough, Gladie wonders if this gift has a return policy.
When Zelda’s neighbor drops dead in his kitchen, Gladie is swept into his bizarre family’s drama. Despite warnings from the (distractingly gorgeous) chief of police to steer clear of his investigation, Gladie is out to prove that her neighbor’s death was murder. It’s not too long before she’s in way over her head—with the hunky police chief, a dysfunctional family full of possible killers, and yet another mysterious and handsome man, whose attentions she’s unable to ignore. Gladie is clearly being pursued—either by true love or by a murderer. Who will catch her first?

Fun and funny, with first protagonist.
A very nice story with plenty going on. Some very funny moments during the story.
Meet Gladie, who has commitment issues, along with some weird phobias and living in a small California town, helping (supposedly) with her grandmother’s matchmaking business but sidetracked into a murder investigation. There’s a handsome, sexy new neighbor and ditto for the chief of police, zany situations & characters. The pace is fast and hilarious, I actually laughed out loud reading this one. The description of Gladie’s attempt to rescue what she thinks is an owl, while making a food run is priceless! Light-hearted beach read.
Very funny e-book
Great book! I like a book with a great story and plenty of twists!
It was just OK. Too simple of a plot
Gladie and her grandma are a pair to draw to!!
This book is so ridiculous, bordering on offensive.
could not follow the plot.
Very similar to Evanovich.
This series is hilarious! Oddball characters that keep me laughing and coming back for more!
A fun easy read. Enjoyed reading this book very much!
This book gave me a couple of laughs but a little too much predictable drama, reminded me of watching a sitcom (not Friends). I won’t continue on in the series but don’t feel like it was a total waste of time finishing this book.
Nice light reading!
Good book, kept my attention
Book was okay and somewhat enetertaining. It held my interest enough to finish it but I’m not sure I’d read the author again.
If you don’t want sex and crude language in your books, this series is not for you.
Love the series.
Very enjoyable book. It included all my favorites — funny, mystery, action, and romance.
Enjoyed so much read the entire series
