Publisher's summary

Want to take a ride on the wild side?

Shelby Nichols isn't your average soccer-mom turned private investigator.

She's more on the quirky side with a little wild thrown in.

That's because a near-fatal gunshot wound to the head left her with the ability to read minds.

This lands her in all kinds of troubling situations. Helping a reporter, finding a missing child, and solving a conspiracy that involves the police are just a few.

Soon, Shelby is crossing danger at every turn. Will she find the answers in time? Or will this be her last adventure?

Get it today and find out.

USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author Colleen Helme offers a clever mix of mystery, laugh-out-loud humor, and page-turning adventure in the highly acclaimed Shelby Nichols Adventure Series.

Must read

Wow I really enjoyed this book, nope make that the whole series. I just love the characters and the plot never quite ends up in the direction you think the story is going and with all the twists and turns the story takes you just have to hold on and enjoy the ride. Another must read or listen to story by a very talented author.
Shelby is called in on a private case when her best friends niece goes missing. At the same time she is working on a cold case for the police, trying to solve a ten year old murder. Uncle Joey (a mob Boss) wants her help to find out why an old friend/enemy is getting back in touch and to top it all Billy is shot in a home invasion. Can Shelby juggle all the balls in the air and put her mind reading skill to good use before things get even more dangerous? Hopefully as the bodies start to pile up and a hit man is in town.
The narrator was very good and I can't imagine a better reader for this bunch of fun characters

Love this Series!

Would you listen to Crossing Danger again? Why?

Yes! I thoroughly enjoy each of Shelby's adventures, and Crossing Danger is just as entertaining.

What did you like best about this story?

This story, as with all of the Shelby Nichols Adventures, has several over-lapping plots; introduces new characters, and builds on Shelby's past relationships. I especially appreciate that Ms. Helme allows Shelby to have a happy marriage and be a normal healthy young woman. Very refreshing!

What about Wendy Tremont King’s performance did you like?

I love Wendy's performances with all of the Shelby Adventures! She does a great job with all types of voices (several male characters) and gives Shelby the perfect voice to reflect her personality.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The scenes with Shelby / Chris and Shelby / Ramos are super sweet.

Any additional comments?

I look forward to each new edition to the Shelby Nichols Adventures!

I Like Shelby; But

Colleen Helme has created some great characters and the series is a personal favorite. In this book she has created some more new characters that added to my enjoyment. Chloe and her father Sam, her mother Kira and her Aunt Holly; who prior to Shelby gaining her mind reading abilities had been her best friend. Billie and Dimples have also become staples of the books and are likable characters as well. The growing attraction between Shelby is interesting and gives Shelby a bit of a bad girl feel. The author is quite good at creating interesting characters. Even so there are invariably portions of every book in which credulity is twisted into positions that would strain any Olympic Gymnast. It's difficult to maintain your maturity or your dignity when you're yelling at an audiobook. Still this one rates a solid four stars; good read or listen.

The funny parts.

I liked the voices of the different characters and how they all want to protect the main character.

Shelby Nichols—mind reader, PI, alway a great read

I'm always checking for the next book in this series:
This ditsy determined darling, reads minds to solve the problems of her own clients, police, and Uncle Joey (the crime boss). Great plots, well defined characters, tears mixed with humor makes for a story that’s hard to put down. KEEP THEM COMING !

Amazing!

I loved listening to Crossing Danger! Wendy does such a great job bringing Shelby to life. I love the Shelby Nichols Adventures! It's fun to go back and listen to them after I've read them first. I'm excited for the next book!

excellent!!

i love all the great characters and their many facets, especially Shelby! She is vulnerable yet courageous, soft yet tough, beautiful yet loves throwing caution to the wind! im a senior who would give anything to be Shelby for even just a day! this is my second time around on the series, even better this go round! and my special needs daughter listens with me, loving everything about all! Can't wait for Book 15 of Shelby and book 2 of Angel Falls!! ❤

My favorite so far!

Exciting and fun! I can wait for the next one and the trip that will follow.

They keep getting better

This is such a fun series. Shelby is very likable and her interactions with Ramos are perfect. I even enjoy her police friends and kids. Her relationship with Uncle Joey is sweet, even if he is a mob boss. Still not a fan of Chris. He is too whimpy, she needs Ramos!

Continues to be a great series

Not disappointed at all in audiobook #7 in the series. Multiple side stories and action that converge. A possible new “gift” and assignment for Shelby. Still appreciate the narrator’s work with voice of Shelby. I binge-listened on this one. One worry: I am concerned how often Shelby’s stomach “clenches” and “twists.” I think she might need upper endoscopy.
