BOOK TOUR AND GIVEAWAY: Psycho In Paradise (Paradise Series #15) by Deborah Brown


BOOK INFORMATION
Genre:
Cozy Mystery

  • Series: Paradise Series
  • Paperback: 410 pages
  • Publisher: Paradise Books LLC (July 21, 2018)
  • Language: English
  • ISBN-10: 0998440469
  • ISBN-13: 978-0998440460























NEW RELEASE...
In the Florida Keys, you have to take the shady with the sunny. And Tarpon Cove has more than fifty shades of shady going on.

Shady No. 1: When Brad is caught with the dead body of his crazy ex-girlfriend—a body he swears was planted—the Westin family gathers to plan a strategy. That family now including Fab, Didier, and Creole by default.

Shady No. 2: Fab is having a hard time keeping her promise to go legit. It’s not her fault she tends to attract clients who want their problems solved without getting the cops involved. Trying to keep her reined in is a full-time job, and a thankless one, since Madison keeps getting roped in on “easy” jobs that wind up getting the kind of messy that require specialized cleanup.

Shady No. 3: Ferreting out the info needed to save Brad means using sources so deep in the friend-of-a-friend network they’re anonymous.

The only thing not shady is Creole’s love. Madison’s kept her promise never to lie to him. Mostly. But when the killer wafts like smoke through the cracks in the investigation, it reminds her she should’ve eaten dessert first more often.

Review: The Tarpon Cove crew have done it again! These people tend to find themselves in every sort of mess imaginable (and some not so imaginable ones as well!!), but it always makes for great reading.
This entire book was full of twists and surprises, even more than most of the others. There is also plenty of action, suspense, and humor, with occasional snippets of romance. We meet a couple of new characters in this book, one related to each of the girls--there should be more to come in those storylines in the future.
The book is easily read as a stand-alone novel, but if you want to get the full impact of all the interpersonal relationships, I would suggest reading the entire series. It will be well worth your time.

Rating: Five stars

The Paradise series, are Florida Keys mysteries, “great as stand-alone reads, but they're like chips...you won't be able to devour just one!”

"My love for these quirky characters grows with every book! Hope they never end!"

"Deborah Brown has done it again. I don't think I could ever get tired of Madison, Fab, and the rest of the gang. These books are always laugh out loud funny and this one is no different. Psycho in Paradise has plenty of twists and turns that kept me turning pages. It's filled with adventure, suspense, thrills, and fun characters. It's impossible to put down."

About the Author
I've been writing, in one way or another for as long as I can remember; poetry, sappy short stories (my best friend made me swear that I’d never show anyone until I changed the names), and a romance novel shoved under my bed.

I wanted to create books with a wide range of unforgettable characters, with heat and romance, and lots of guns. It wouldn’t be complete without a slice of humor and charm.

I live with my family and demon children aka rescue cats in South Florida.

BOOK TOUR AND GIVEAWAY: Blownup In Paradise (Paradise Series #14) by Deborah Brown


BOOK INFORMATION
Genre: Cozy Mystery
  • Series: Paradise Series
  • Paperback: 422 pages
  • Publisher: Paradise Books, LLC (March 3, 2018)
  • Language: English
  • ISBN-10: 0998440450
  • ISBN-13: 978-0998440453






















NEW RELEASE....
I’ve come a long way since inheriting my Aunt Elizabeth’s Tarpon Cove house and her beach cottages full of quirky residents. I strap a Glock to my thigh as easily as I slip into flip-flops.

Even Fab is going legit… mostly. When she’s hired to investigate some high-end boat thefts in Biscayne Bay, I go along to do what I do best. Chat up the help to get the real story.

Neither of us expected the case to explode—literally—and take out one of Miami’s richest men. And possibly a mistress, though no one’s found her body floating among the bits and pieces.

Somewhere in the Miami upper-crust’s phony smiles and even phonier alibis there’s someone who wanted to see Marshall Sacks dead. Someone willing to ruin Fab’s and my lives to keep their secret. It’ll take calling in every favor I’m owed to keep us out of trouble.

"This fabulous duo exudes so much sassiness and strong willed characteristics that I absolutely cannot get enough of." 
Above reviews from Amazon

Review: This is Madison and Fab's most explosive adventure, both literally and figuratively. Meanwhile, Creole is making plans for his future--will he return to the police force or try something new--and the girls are behaving more responsibly, for the most part, when it comes to their PI jobs. Once again, Brick is up to no good and dragging the girls along with him until they catch on.   Life at The Cottages continues to be one misadventure after another--and it was great to see Creole step up and put the fear of God into a group of tourists!

The end of the book shares a very special secret, and I can't wait to read the next book to see what's going to happen next.

As usual, this is a very well written story. Ms. Brown has created characters that series readers can care about, who feel like family by this point. And her description of the Tarpon Cove area put you right in the thick of the Florida Keys...which is a great mini-vacation any time of year.

I will be anxiously awaiting the release of book #15, Psycho In Paradise.

BOOK TOUR AND GIVEAWAY: Ambushed In Paradise (Paradise #12) by Deborah Brown


BOOK INFORMATION
Genre: Cozy mystery
  • Series: Paradise Series
  • Paperback: 394 pages
  • Publisher: Paradise Books, LLC (October 6, 2017)
  • Language: English
  • ISBN-10: 0998440426
  • ISBN-13: 978-0998440422























Synopsis: The Keys is a great place to hide a seashell bucket full of secrets.

Creole…shot…dead. Three words Madison Westin never thought she’d hear in the same sentence. Creole promised. He pinky swore on it.

But even through a blur of tears fed by prescription-strength margaritas, Madison can tell when things are shady. Sure, Creole was undercover, but she deserves more than sketchy non-answers, an urn of ashes, and a secret life crawling out of the woodwork.

Nothing’s adding up, nothing that remotely sounds like the Creole she knew and loved. Calling in every one of her IOU’s—only to find some of her most reliable information sources drying up—Madison sets out to dig up what really happened to Creole. She never thought the truth would wrap its arms around her and make her wonder if she’s chasing a ghost… or taking a vacation from sanity.

Ambushed in Paradise is book #12 in the action-packed Paradise series. Come along with Madison and Fab as they dig up the truth and share more than one hair-raising adventure.

"I love the characters, Brown does an amazing job of creating complex and interesting characters!" 

"This was one of the author's strongest books yet"

"I have enjoyed this entire series, but this book is a standout."

Review:  Most of this book was heartbreaking to read, as we follow Madison's journey through grieving for Creole after she learns he was shot and killed while undercover. But even in the midst of her grief, she and Fabiana are in the middle of a mystery or two of their own.

I was disappointed in the way Brad and Philipa acted in this book for the most part, as it feels like neither of them is going to have Madison's back any longer. Madison's mother irritated me on more than one occasion. I can understand that she was worried about her daughter, but I think she went a bit overboard at times.

Even with such a heavy storyline, there is still plenty of the humor we've come to expect from these books--Crum's gardening class immediately comes to mind, as well as Mad and Fab's interactions with Brick.

Since I've already read book #13, Christmas In Paradise, I'm anxious to see where #14 will take us!!

I have volunteered to share my review and all the opinions are 100% my own.

Rating: Five stars
