The Newest Title by Kasey Michaels is In!

Review by Christie Ridgway
Kasey Michaels has called up a winner in Dial M for Mischief, which bills itself as a "romantic caper" and is the first in the author's new trilogy. Retired cop and veteran PI Teddy Sunshine is dead, and it looks like the second half of a murder-suicide. But not to his three daughters, Jade, Jolie and Jessica. They're sure their dad was murdered because of something to do with one of his four old, cold cases. As "Teddy's Angels" they decide to work the unsolved crimes themselves in order to find out what happened to their beloved father. But there's a guy for each of these girls, and this book brings up-and-coming actress Jolie Sunshine back together with her ex-fiancé, millionaire Sam Becket. The story speeds along almost as fast as the pulse of former lovers Jolie and Sam, and rooting for them to restore their romance is as easy as the banter between the characters. In a nod to these alliterated sisters, this is a super start to a sly new series.

The Start of a New Series from J.D. Warren

Guest Reviewer Joyce Ann shares her review of the newest book form J. D. Warren, Posted on PW Blog Beyond Her Book by Barbara Vey 06/06/08.




“I got snookered again and taken in by a title and bookcover of a malapropos nature. Here's this book with a cutesy little title and cutesy little cover art, and neither has anything to with the story. When you spot this book in a store, it might catch your eye and you might think it could be pretty good. The fact is, it's much, much better! What were they thinking? Samantha goes through her days feeling like she doesn't quite belong in her life, only to discover when memory returns that it's not her life she's living. Upon that recognition, she finds out about parallel worlds, about shapeshifters and fairies, about ancient battles between good and evil, and about love.In a wonderfully imaginative story of magic and suspense, J D Warren creates characters that are engaging and colorful. And while witty and charming, I didn't think it cutesy at all. The title doesn't do it justice. I look forward to the next book, but I suppose it's too much to hope the title will be relevant."



Sounds like a fun read, Joyce Ann. Be looking for more of Joyce's book blurbs in the future.
