Mad About Murder by Cindy Vincent

 


Maddie Montgomery is once again involved in a murder mystery in her neighborhood. Even though her new beau has warned her to stay off the case Maddie is determined to solve who killed her philandering neighbor. Not only is she dealing with a murder investigation, but she is also dealing with a young teenager bent on sabotaging Maddie's book sales. Between disastrous kitchen episodes from said teen, nightmare hair appointments from one of her neighbors jilted loves, and an evening of speed dating will Maddie be able to solve the murder? And there is still the mystery that her husband left when he passed away. Once again, will Maddie be able to survive a murderer on the loose?

This is the second book in the Maddie Montgomery Mystery series. I enjoyed it very much and it gave me several chuckles along the way. Like Maddie, I wasn't happy with the way Remy treated her when he went on duty, but I also wasn't happy with the way their relationship is still kind of up in the air by the end of the story. And what about the new guy in her life? Guy seems like a nice enough man, but I have a feeling there is more to him than we get to see in this installment of the series. There were a few things left hanging by the end of the story. What was Maddie's husband mixed up in that are now coming to light? Who will Maddie choose, Remy or Guy? And what is up with Maddie's neighbor Spencer Poe? Is he former CIA as Maddie thinks or is there something more mysterious about him? The humor in the series is entertaining. Oh my goodness, Maddie's hair mishaps about killed me! The teenager trying to replicate Maddie's recipes found in her books about did me in! The speed dating scene had me cracking up! If you enjoy cozy mysteries and light humor then try this series. You'll enjoy it as much as I did!
