Publisher's summary
Series is finished!
Vicki Bohanan is back and sporting a whole new mystery. Blackmail lands at her feet on the eve of preseason football.
And for a woman with an attitude the size of Texas, it’s gonna take more than a pigskin to plug her pie hole.
A Texas Ranger, an undercover boss, and a hunky radio personality walk into the bar and keep Vicki’s head spinning like a ride at the state fair. The only score she wants to settle is with her renovated residence. But when a certain Aussie model invites her to San Antonio for a romantic Alamo shootout – cameras this time, folks – Vicki can’t escape temptation and saddles up for a cozy rendezvous.
Then runs smackdab into unexpected trouble courtesy of Reginald von Braun.
Reggie’s got secrets guaranteed to set the South aflame – and someone has discovered the truth. With blackmail in the bargain, Vicki must help solve the crime and uncover the criminal threatening to expose the past right as Reggie’s on the cusp of finding a future.
All while protecting certain revelations.
That’s hard to do when you’re plagued with that dreaded disease known as foot-in-mouth. But Vicki’s not about to let a friend go down without a fight.
No matter how catty the kitty gets.
Join the laugh-out-loud capers in book two of the Bartender Babe Chronicles that readers of Janet Evanovich are calling the Texas Stephanie Plum. Light among humorous mysteries and romantic comedies and long on—well as they say, everything’s bigger in Texas.

Story
Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of best-selling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish. Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity's notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read.

Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Story
Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

The story was good but hard to concentrate on because of the virtual voice. I've listened to a lot of books and love when the reader uses different voices. The virtual voice is horrible!!!
