I Love the Cover. It was what grabbed me and wanted me to try this one out. I know judging a book by it's cover is not good and I may be losing a couple of good books by doing that but this one... sigh...
Okay, First thing first. The Cat. O'Ryan. Is ADORABLE. And a total gentlemen. He goes outside to do his business. And waits up until Lee returns home from work to go to sleep. I am absolutely in love with the him.
The main character Lee, is back home to start anew. With a trip to an interview ending up her losing the interview and then discovering a dead body. She finds out that the dead was the host for the late night show for WICH-TV and gets offered the late night host job.
The books starts out great. The mystery and other events in Lee's life make up a great read as well as keeping me stuck in the book. However, that being said I do think that after a while the mystery just seemed to be stretched too thin. Halfway through the book the mystery was not a mystery as much finding out what happened to Janet for me.
Even before the climax I had realized who the murderer was. What kept me on the book was finding out why? and What happened?
I may be saying a little too much but I think this book or the mystery on some very bad things that had happened in the past. What goes around comes around. There is a result for every action. Bad or Good.
The climax was worth the bump in the book. Wrapped the book up nicely, with probably a hint of good change and new friendship.
