Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Set in Beaumont, S.C., the fifth installment in Evanovich's Full series (after 2004's Full Blast) gets off to a raucous start. When photographer Wes Bridges comes looking for a room at Annie Fortenberry's B&B, a former bordello that's supposedly haunted, Annie mistakes him for her drunken handyman and hits poor Wes on the head with her rolling pin. Hilarity ensues as Annie and her cast of eccentric boarders provide first aid to Wes in the form of a local veterinarian who specializes in livestock tranquilizers. The comedy gives way to murky mystery when the police locate the body of Annie's philandering husband, Charles, who disappeared three years earlier, and arrest Annie for his murder. The romance between Wes and Annie heats up the sheets, even as the list of suspects grows. Unfortunately, the plot flattens out, and even boarder Destiny's efforts to provide the B&B's ghost with therapy fail to rekindle the novel's earlier humor. While readers will be amused by the wacky first few chapters, the mystery never reaches the intensity of Evanovich's Stephanie Plum novels, and fans will likely be disappointed with this less than stellar entry. (Apr.)

From AudioFile
This little romantic mystery doesn't take itself too seriously, and the result is delightful. Lorelei King lends sparkle to the fifth book in Evanovich and Hughes's "Full" series. King portrays B&B owner Annie Fortenberry with natural confidence. When Annie accidentally whacks a handsome Harley-riding visitor with a rolling pin, sparks fly. The steamy romance is interrupted by the discovery of a body in Annie's garden that turns out to be her philandering husband. King provides a sultry voice for Annie's psychic friend, Destiny, and skillfully differentiates Annie and her best friend, Jamie. Aside from the high-pitched squeak used for Annie's elderly boarder, King capably brings the parade of wacky characters to life.
