Rest In Pink by Bob Mayer and Jennifer Crusie

After reading Lavender’s Blue, I really wondered where the Burney story could continue since there weren’t a lot of loose ends at its conclusion.  Suffice to say, book 1 was clearly just the tip of the iceberg as far as the mystery surrounding the Blues and Burney.

While Vince and Liz figure prominently in the romance portion of the story, other characters start to shine as well.  Between the good guys, bad guys, and mystery people, there is a lot to keep track of including Liz’s writing, her motherly instincts, and her convoluted family.

I can see a little where the next book might go, and I am all in.

Lavender’s Blue by Bob Mayer and Jennifer Crusie

Small towns and their secrets.  Liz Danger’s return to her small hometown after 15 years is the topic of LAVENDER’S BLUE.  She gets stopped by a hot cop as soon as she passes the town sign only to find her notoriety precedes her.

I loved these characters - Liz and Vince.  The humor is subtle and smart.  The plot full of twists and secrets revealed.  The chemistry between Vince and Liz crackles.  I think my favorite element of the story was Liz’s car with Veronica being a close second.

It’ll be interesting to see what more can happen with Liz in the next book.
