Fortune never fails to entertain
Love these laugh-out-loud books one of my favorite series..Fortune, Ida, and Gertie..are fun.
It’s Jana DeLeon & Sinful, LA – Sinful puts a quirky twist even to eccentric. I grew up in the South where eccentric wasn’t the neighbor down the street, it was your family, but Jana does it funnier!
Thoroughly enjoyed this book and have recommended to friends and family. A clean, fun, mystery set in the Louisiana bayou country. Full of great characters.
Love this book! Fortune has settled in Sinful and decided to be a PI after retiring from the CIA. Ida Bell and Gertie are along for the fun. Of course Celia is trying everyone’s nerves especially Carter. This book takes place the week of Halloween. A dead body, Halloween maze and Fortune all make this a page turner!
I love all her books. Can’t go wrong
This is the best cozy mystery series I have read.
Love all of her books.
Free of the CIA and with her new PI license, Fortune Redding, Gertie, and Ida Belle start out as being part of the Holloween maze, each playing a character. Fortune is “The Executioner” who chops the head on a dummy, till after the break when a real headless body takes its place. Ironically, her significant other Carter becomes the chief suspect and ends up hiring the troublesome threesome to solve the mystery he’s locked out of by state police. Very good and mostly up to her old mark. The Holloween theme is a nice touch. Lacks the complexity of plot and character of the earlier books.
Loved it!!!! Can’t wait til the next book in this series comes out!!!!. Fortune and the girls always leave me an hysterical mess laughing so hard!!!! Great story lines and wonderful plots.. Jana really delivers every time.
The Miss Fortune series is an awesome series! You never know what mischief Fortune, Ida Belle and Gertie will get into next. I love these books as much as my Stephanie Plum books.
The characters in this series are fun to read and always entertaining
Love the characters. Love the funny interaction with the characters. Keeps me laughing throughout the entire book. Love the whole series. Keep them coming!
Just as much fun as all the Fortune books!
there is not enough room to write what i want about this author.. she is my all time favorite. the situations these ladie get into are wonderous. i wish i lived in the same town even next dooe.. id be laughing forever. i can can be so far down in the dumps and read any of these books and im back to where i should be. i know you cn only right somany books at a time but iwish you could write once a month id buy everyonei .. my husband gets up in the middle ofthe night to see what all the racket is about ..it is my laughing…. i love you jana please dont ever stop writing. thank you thank you
I love this series. These ladies are wonderful, loyal, unpredictable and fun. The writing lets you picture exactly what is going on and laugh out loud. Highly recommend.
I recommend any Miss Fortune book in the series. I have laughed out loud several times while reading. The 3 main characters are a hoot!
I loved this book as I have all of the Swamp Team 3 Books. Jana DeLeon has created 3 funny and lovable characters. I have read all her books and have not been disappointed yet.
Jana Deleon’s Miss Fortune series is a fun romp through the bayou town of Sinful, Louisiana, as Fortune Redding (a former CIA assassin) and her quirky, elderly cronies solve mysterious murders.
Swamp Spook is the perfect Halloween read for the month of October. Costumed as an executioner, Fortune helps with the haunted maze during Halloween week. During a break, the headless dummy is replaced by a dead body, and then (as usual in this series) over the top, hilarious havoc breaks out.
Although Swamp Spook is a stand alone story, the book will be more enjoyable if the reader starts with book one, Louisiana Longshot and reads the series.
Well, here’s another book in the Miss Fortune series that had me in a no-stop reading mode. Jana Deleon is another author who has the reader wondering just what kind of mischief and mayhem her main characters (Fortune, Ida Belle and Gertie) are going to get into next. Stand by for laugh out loud humor and enjoy!
