Publisher's summary

Riches to rags.... Chaos has never been so supreme.... Now, a suspect herself.... No calm in sight....

Being a suspect in the murder of her ex-lawyer is not the fun Doreen thought it would be. And, of course, she’s been ordered to stay away from the case, but she can’t help being interested. So, she enlists Mack’s brother, Nick - her new lawyer - to help.

Mack’s first priority is to clear Doreen as a suspect. No one in their right mind would seriously believe she’d done the deed, of course. But the fact is, she had both motive and opportunity, so clearing her of suspicion isn’t the walk in the park that Mack would like it to be. Especially not when she insists on sticking her nose into his case, where it doesn’t belong.

And just when Doreen is certain things can’t get any worse, answering her doorbell shows her that this nightmare has just started. Who just walked into her life? None other than her soon-to-be ex-husband Mathew.

A few mistakes

A few edits were missed, especially in chapter 11. I feel like Mathew and Rex’s character profiles could have used a little more depth and lacked believability on being dangerous men. This was my least fav in the series so far

Skipping Chapters

The story was good enough but the chapters were completely out of order. Confused as to what was going on considering the others books were in correct order.

errors

There were several slight clicks then a grammatically correct version of a previous phrase was inserted. As in the last book there were duplicate events in illogical sequence. what is happening?

Not Up To Previous Books In Series

I've listened to each of the books in this series from A through M and truly enjoyed all of them. This book, however, did not live up to the rest. Doreen's character was really irritating at times. She never appreciates Mack and all he does for her but in this book that comes through time and again. At this point in time I feel Doreen should also be less ignorant about cooking and be trying to cook and eat more. I also feel like she was being very gullible and taking unneeded chances with her ex husband. All around this book was just not written as well as the previous books. Hopefully the author will move Doreen's character forward more in the upcoming books.

Corrected Chapter Sequence

Bought the audiobook the first day it was released because I love the series but all the chapters were grossly out of sequence (reason for low rating by other reviewers). Returned the audiobook and notified Audible and the author's fan site of the problem. It took a couple months but the publisher sent a corrected version to Audible and everything seems to be in order. I have already listened to the eBook so I know the story and writing are good. Looking forward to hearing it performed by a professional narrator instead of a computer generated voice.

great story, product needs work

Knew I loved the story after reading it the past. Took a while to get used to the new narrator's version of Mac. Then there were several production errors. A few chapters would replay instead advancing to the next. And Chapter 11 had a lot of bloopers that never got removed. (where the narrator stopped and reread the words correctly.) Noticed one later in the book but I didn't note the location. Overall it's a great story and I love the series.

bad editing

starting in Chapter 11 the editing is horrible so when the narrator messes up she just starts over in the middle of a sentence and then the chapters start to repeat. so Chapter 23 repeats twice.
