About this listen

From USA Today best-selling author Jennifer L. Hart comes the next nail-biting adventure of the hilarious mother-daughter Mackenzie & Mackenzie PI team!

Another day, another secret.

Novice PI Mackenzie Taylor is going stir crazy. Deep in the throes of a classic New England winter, the endless hours of following cheating spouses have left her feeling jaded and restless. Not to mention the emotional tug of war when the father of her teenage child suddenly starts hanging around and putting a major crimp in Mackenzie's fledgling relationship with the hot Detective Hunter Black. So when she's asked to help find a missing bride, Mackenzie jumps at the chance to do some good.

Juggling the missing persons case, two headstrong men, being a new landlord of a rundown building, and a 16-year-old daughter/BFF actually acting her age for once and crushing on a much older man has Mackenzie contemplating the upside of running away from home. Instead she throws herself into work. But the more dirt she digs up on the missing bride, the murkier the investigation becomes. Was it a simple case of post-wedding jitters or did the missing woman make a fatal mistake? And is Mackenzie about to follow her footsteps right into the clutches of a killer?

A thoroughly enjoyable listen. The characters that the author creates are vivid and flawed. All with an absorbing mystery too.

Very good

I enjoyed this book, however there was a bit too much romance for my liking and I didn't think it really left much room for the investigation. Don't get me wrong there are no sex scenes, it is more the affections of two men trying to win her over, although that does mean the characters have developed nicely from the first book. I love the characters especially the mother daughter relationship between Mackenzie and Mac. I enjoyed meeting Hunters family and of course the dysfunction of Mackenzie own family adds to the drama, gives you some laughs and even a bombshell is dropped at the end of the book. The mystery was interesting and I had no clue who the killer was or the stalker but it plays out well keeping me hooked and entertained until the very end.
Mackenzie tired of following cheating spouses wants a real case. That is until she finds out it means working with her ex. A bride has gone missing just days after her wedding. Her ex is working for the woman's parents and she will be working for the husband. Can Mackenzie work with her ex and find her? A storm is going to hit the city but Mackenzie finds she has a lot more to worry about than some snow and cold weather. Somebody is leaving her messages, her dog escapes the garden, she has a leaky roof, a too hot to handle tenant that wants to be more than friends, a flakey ex who is upsetting there daughter and a disapproving mother to deal with. Just another day for private detective Mackenzie Taylor.
I liked the narrator. She kept the story entertaining with the magic of her voice.
