Love in a Nutshell

By Janet Evanovich and Dorien Kelly

Down on her luck Kate Appleton walks into Matt Culhane’s office and demands a job since it was his skunk beer keg that had gotten her fired from the only job she could find in Keene’s Harbor and after she was dumped by her husband and fired from her position as magazine editor and has decided to turn her family’s lake side cottage into a bed and breakfast she needs every penny she can scrounge. Matt is intrigued by the feisty woman and decides to hire her, he has had a run of “accidents” and needs someone inconspicuous to spy for him and Kate seems perfect for the job, and if she can find the culprit then he will give her a bonus of twenty thousand dollars.

These two authors have managed to produce a fun and witty novel full of love and laughter. Not only do these two bring together a flirty romance but I love the dogs in the story with Matt’s three-legged mascot to Kate’s spoiled miniature poodle, I don’t think the story would have gone quite so well without them. This contemporary romance will surely leave you giggling as you follow along on some of the best antics that have been compiled into a beautiful love story.

Wicked Business by Janet Evanovich Review

Wicked Business

Lizzy and Diesel Book Two

By Janet Evanovich

Pastry Chef Lizzy Tucker has been pulled into a world of magic and mischief when she finds out that she is someone who can find magic objects. Diesel comes into her life to protect her from his cousin and so that she can help him find the seven stones that hold the seven deadly sins. When an English professor is thrown off his fourth floor balcony Lizzy and Diesel begin a scavenger hunt that will lead them all over Boston in search for the stone that represents Lust.

Janet Evanovich did a wonderful job with this novel; she manages to encompass fantasy, romance, mystery, and fantastic comedy. Though this one may not be as funny as the first one in the series, the author did add new characters into this one that adds an interesting take into the magical world that Janet Evanovich is creating. What is interesting is the series of events towards the end of the book when we find out what happens when two magically tuned people consummate, it is interesting and adds to the fact that Lizzy and Diesel cannot be together physically in a much more potent way. This was a fantastic novel and I look forward to seeing where the rest of the series will take us. The only problem I have with the book is reading it makes me hungry, they talk about and consume food constantly and the author describes the pastries so well I almost drool for a cup cake!

Wicked Appetite by Janet Evanovich Review

Wicked Appetite

Lizzy and Diesel Book One

By Janet Evanovich

Lizzie Tucker gave up her fast paced career in New York and moved into her aunt’s old house in Marblehead and soon started working in a small local bakery life was quiet and fit her just fine. One day a handsome stranger brands her with his mark and disappears shortly after this unusual encounter another gorgeous man comes looking for her and tells her the other man is his evil cousin who is after a relic that represents gluttony, if his cousin manages to collect all of the relics that represent the deadly sins he can open the gates to hell on earth.

Not only is this a wonderful thriller it is also hilarious with outlandish characters such as the monkey who continually flips people the bird to the would-be witch whose spells continually go awry. Janet Evanovich does a wonderful job in blending multiple genres into one brilliant and cohesive novel. With fantasy, mystery, romance, and comedy this book has a little bit of everything for everyone. It is a light hearted and fun read, so if you are looking for something thought provoking you may want to go elsewhere.
