About this listen

Madison Reynolds is rebuilding her life, one obstacle at a time.

Madison's newest client at In a Pinch Temp Service is a suspicious wife, up against a formidable foe - the lovely Caress Ellingsworth, former soap opera queen. When the star is murdered and Madison is eyewitness to the deed, she wonders if the shadowed person she saw commit the crime might really be her client. Now Madison is torn between uncovering the truth and keeping her client's name off the suspect list.

Caress is not the only star in town these days. With a little help from Granny Bert and Madison's best friend Genesis, the popular television show Home Again arrives, with some crazy notion about remodeling the Big House for Maddy and her twins. The problem is, Madison can't afford to buy the house, much less pay to have it renovated. No matter how tempting the offer-or how tempting the show's star, Nick Vilardi-Madison sees it as just another block that will not fit.

Even if she manages to stack the blocks in a semblance of order, even if she climbs her way up and reaches for the sky, what happens when the stars fall?

I enjoyed this book. This is book two in the series and the story is so character driven you don't need to have read the previous book to enjoy this book. There are a lot of characters but there is so much back story to each that you feel like you know them in just a few pages. Madison is an independent single woman, with trust issues but a big heart and I just love her family and friends. The mystery wasn't really investigated, instead the killer tried several times to killer her before revealing themselves. That's not to say that there isn't clues or an opportunity for you to solve it, in fact I had my suspicions, which turned out to be right. It's just Madison was to busy with her home life and work and the investigating mostly took place at night and lead to her getting in trouble. Looking forward to the next book.
Madison is despite to make money so that she and her twin teenagers can move out of her grandmother's home, which explains why she takes on case a case to follow a cheating husband. It doesn't explain why she witnesses a murder late at night while peaking into the other woman's windows. The problem is the killer was so bundled up that she can't identify the killer. It could even have be her own client. The killer doesn't have that problem and knows exactly who she is. Can she survive the attempts on her life long enough to find the killer and a new home?
I liked the narrator. She helped the characters come alive in front of my eyes.
