Rest in Pink

Liz Danger, Book 2

By: Jennifer Crusie, Bob Mayer

Narrated by: Cris Dukehart, Eric G. Dove

From the NY Times Bestselling duo that wrote Agnes and the Hitman, the second book in the Liz Danger series.

Liz Danger is a ghostwriter, trapped in her old hometown for the summer. Good thing she has Vince Cooper, her recurring one-night stand living down by the river in his old diner car, making her feel happy and safe and normal until September when she’ll be leaving again, although she’s starting to wonder if she really wants to.

Vince Cooper is a cop in a town with a shady new housing development that’s bringing a lot of armed strangers, a corrupt mayor, a police chief boss under fire, and an idiot blogger stirring up trouble. Good thing his recurring one-night stand is sticking around for the summer. The only drawback? He’s not looking forward to the empty space Liz Danger will leave behind her when she goes in September.

Treacherous small-town politics, a rust belt biker gang, a widowed ex who doesn’t understand the word “no,” a seven-year-old in need of a temporary mom, a flamboyant blonde boss who needs watched at all times, exploding family secrets, arson, murder, and three hundred and ninety-two soaking wet teddy bears later, Liz and Vince will come face to face with the madman burning down their town, and even worse, with their imploding relationship.

“A comic caper and raucous romance. . . laugh out loud funny.” Kirkus Reviews on Agnes and the Hitman

“A sex, sassy, and smart combination of romance and suspense that is simply irresistible.” Booklist on Don’t Look Down

Sooo good.

I have a few authors on my automatic buy list. I added Jennifer Crusie/Bob Mayer after I read "Lavender's Blue." This second book in the series justifiably confirms this decision. Following up on all these Burney characters and the several subplots from the first book, we find a little mentioned character from "Lavender's Blue" creating havoc and mayhem for Vince and just about the whole town. Let me not forget pivotal character Liz, her employer Anemone, seven-year-old Peri and the rest of the Burney gang of friends. So many characters and each one breathes life into Burney. I chuckled, laughed out loud, spit out coffee, stomped around angry and read dialogue to my husband (such a patient man). A re-read worth read.

Let me not forget to mention Cris Dukehart and Eric G. Dove do a fine narration with al the quirks needed.

She’s back and KILLING IT!

I love this new series. I can’t work or sleep because I can’t stop listening! I love the characters, dialogue and how they grow and develop through the story line!!!! Thank you and Bob Mayer for writing another great book!
