From author Erin Huss comes another “hilarious and fun” (Huffington Post) addition to the Cambria Clyne Mysteries. For apartment manager, Cambria Clyne, every day is a bad hair day, and her birthday is no exception. At least the rest of her life is in order. Her daughter is thriving in their new home, Cambria is up for a promotion at work, and she’s got two men vying for her attention—the hunky … attention—the hunky ex-maintenance man and her dreamy baby daddy. As if that wasn’t enough excitement, Cambria’s best friend, Amy, has just landed the role of a lifetime on the hit prime time drama Ghost Confidential. Yes, things are looking up for Cambria Clyne, and this just might be her best birthday yet!
Until it all goes up in flames.
Celebrations are put aside when the stars from Ghost Confidential start showing up dead. There’s a killer with a personal vendetta on the loose, and when suspicious items show up in Amy’s possession, it becomes evident that someone is trying to pin the murders on her. Now Cambria must figure out who is attempting to frame her best friend, all the while still taking care of her daughter, dealing with the crazy antics of her residents, choosing between two men, and preparing for a property inspection that could make or break her apartment management career. Will Cambria catch the killer before anyone else shows up dead? Or will this birthday be her last?

This was one of those books that I couldn’t put down, It was laugh out loud funny, but also had so many twists and turns to keep me guessing. The characters are so likable that I can’t wait to see what happens to them next.
This book kept me reading nonstop. I really enjoyed it, and I definitely recommend it.
What a FABULOUS book! If you are looking for a super fun, laugh out loud story with crazy (albeit well developed) characters all rolled in to a well told story that has your attention from the first word till the very last, this is the book for you! Cambria and the rest of the ‘gang’ are total entertainment in this easy read which will keep you up past your bedtime so you can read “just one more chapter.” I hadn’t read the first book prior to this, but not only was that not an issue, I certainly am going back to read it now! Oh, and of course, the twists and turns you would expect in any mystery that keep you guessing until the very end with a touch of romance. So, why are you waiting, go check out this dysfunctional group, they will make you want for more by this author. This is my unsolicited, honest opinion after reading an advance copy of this book.
Great mystery with zany characters. Warning – may cause excessive bouts of laughter! The characters are very well developed – and characters they certainly are. This could almost be an apartment complex for misfits! They mystery was also good with several plot twists. Reading the book kept me up way too late when I could not put it down. A very enjoyable read!

Zaniness and sarcastic humor abound in this cozy mystery. I have read several books in this series and they are getting better as they progress. Lily, apartment complex manager Cambria’s young daughter, and the wacky residents of the complex are priceless, especially Gloria and her diaper-wearing parrot! Single mom Cambria is dry-witted, beset by disasters like fires, murderers, absconding renters, and a funeral urn that seems to bring bad luck in its wake. So much fun you almost don’t care about solving the murders.
A definite recommend it you like your cozies with tons of personality and humor. The heroine’s romantic life, though it pops through now and then, is mild in heat and definitely takes the backstage to the weird and wacky world of apartment living in greater Los Angeles.:-)
I read a complimentary advance copy of the book; this is my voluntary and honest review.
Apartment manager, Cambria Clyne, is trying to hold things together. Between getting ready for a property inspection on the apartment complex, she is turning one year older, trying to keep the renters happy (and still renting), and attempting to prove her best friend Amy didn’t kill her co-star. Yep, all in a day’s work!
Cambria just can’t seem to catch a break and with her quick wit, nose for finding trouble, and knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, readers are in for the fun ride of their life. With a mixture of humor, madcap adventure, and a mystery to solve, this book has it all.
Another great cozy mystery by the author. I love how she weaves seemingly unconnected pieces into the storyline to make a great plot. The characters are well developed and as neurotic (Cambria) as always. Highly recommend.
Cambria and crew are back at it again! Cambria is an apartment manager with a daughter Lilly. She is involved in a somewhat love triangle with Lilly’s dad and a cop named Chase. Trouble follows her like bee to honey. In this book, a famous actress is murdered and her best friend Amy is the prime suspect! Cambria knows she is not responsible, so she takes it upon herself to infiltrate herself into the situation to prove her innocence. As expected, be prepared for another hilarious adventure with Cambria and friends! Who is the murderer? What will happen in the love triangle? Find out and more when you read this AWESOME HILARIOUS book! I received this book as a gift and am leaving a voluntary review.
