The characters and settings in this series of books are stellar. These are people you know or might want to hang out with, but with both eyes open for some of them! The descriptions of life styles on the bayou’s of Louisiana are particularly intriguing for someone who was raised in the far north. My take is that there is fun to be had when you pick up a book from this series; and they are the books you’ll want to keep on your shelves, or on your Nook or Kindle, to re-read later on. They are that much fun.
Change of Fortune is the eleventh book in Jana DeLeon’s Miss Fortune Mystery series. Things in Sinful, Louisiana continue to get crazier. With her three-month undercover stay in Sinful coming to a close CIA assassin Fortune Redding has to make some tough decisions. Not the least of which is dealing with Ahmed, the arms dealer who has put a price on her head. Of course, Ida Belle and Gertie are up to their usual escapades. It’s more of the delightful same, a most enjoyable read.
This is such a great series. You can always expect it to contain lots of mystery, mayhem and laugh out loud moments and this book doesn’t disappoint in anyway. I even caught Mr serious (aka my dad) laughing a few times in this book and with such a wonderful cast of characters, why not?
Fortune is fed up with hiding and with the summer all most over its time to take charge and take down Ahmad once and for all. It’s just a shame Sinful isn’t the quiet peaceful town everybody thinks it is, with an alligator roaming lose in the streets chasing people up lampposts and food being stolen from the local cafe, can Fortune spend enough time preparing for her toughest mission for the CIA or will Ahmad and his mole finally get the revenge he so desperately desires. One thing is for certain, where Fortune is you can find Ida Belle, Gertie and Carter.
Cassandra Campbell is the voice of Fortune and I can’t imagine anybody else could do a better job of bring the characters to life
love these books
This book is very funny and is full of action. I enjoyed reading about the characters and their quirky personalities.
I loved this book the most of all the Fortune series by Jana DeLeon. It was so funny in parts but also exciting and nerve wracking at the end.
.
Love this series. I found myself laughing out loud
Another great book in the series!
When I grow up I want to be like Fortune Redding, tough, resilient, loyal and courageous – when it comes to be past she steps up and makes the future she wants a possibility.
Ahmed didn’t stand a chance against this woman, which he learns.
But what can of worms has she opened with Big and Little? Only time will tell.
Lucky for Carter he’s met his match and I can’t wait to read what happens next.
Love the Miss Fortune series!
Fantastic as all of Jana Deleon’s books.
Had to wait a long time to get Change of Fortune from the library and it was worth the wait. Fortune’s summer lasted through 11 books which makes the most action packed summer ever, even in a work of fiction.
As with all the books in this series I had several laugh out loud moments, most featuring Godzilla. All the usual players had some page time.
This is a pivotal book in the series and sets up Fortune’s future. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next.
I love all the fortune books. Such fun!
I borrow these books from my local library and have had to read them out of order depending on what’s available so I knew what happened in this book (@ least with Ahmad). The rest of the story was funny as all get out and the whole Celia up the lamp post and then the tree was priceless. Sinful wouldn’t be the same without her and Gertie.
LOVE ALL OF HER BOOKS!
I LOVE the entire collection of Miss Fortune mysteries, strong and smart, but funny at the same time.
