newly discovered author. did not know she wrote other books, under a completely different name. will have to check out her other aliases. i enjoyed this cozy mystery.

Well read, well lived, well loved- that is just part of Alex Trebek’s theory of life. Good to listen to the audiobook version- especially the chapters he read himself! This must have been produced during quarantine- read by Ken Jennings- a tough listen because we know his voice so well and I just wanted Alex’s voice- Alex is one tough person whose made such an impact in this country for good. Thank you, Alex Trebek for your well lived life that crossed ours because of Jeopardy!

Well drawn characters & great story

Moving story of a women learning herself.

I really enjoyed this book. It moved back and forth between turn of the century and more current day but ties the two stories together. A little mystery and a little history.

I think I’ve just found a series I’m going to enjoy! So far I would recommend it. This book was very hard to put down. I love the concept of saving her family’s pharmacy by expanding into an eco spa!

4 stars for a hilarious book recommended by my s-i-l Judie. I have read 11 books by Carl Hiaasen and enjoyed every one. This one is book 8 in the Skink series. Skink is the former Florida Governor who walked off the job in an earlier book. He was and is an environmentalist, given to outrageous acts of sabotage against companies or people who damage the environment. He does not appear in this book until the second half. The 1st half is about the interchange of incidents between Angela, "Angie" Armstrong, ex Florida Wildlife Officer, Jerry Crosby, Palm Beach Police Chief, a now ex President, along with his wife, and various Secret Service Agents and employees at Casa Bellicosa, aka Winter White House. The President and his wife are never mentioned by name, but the descriptions are so vivid that it is impossible not to know who is who. The second half brings Skink and Jim Tile, a Skink friend into contact with everyone. Some elements in the book: Burmese Pythons--an invasive species thriving in the Everglades Pruitt, a poacher from Angela's past POTUS Pussies--Wealthy widows who adore the President Three quotes: "Angie had been summoned to Casa Bellicosa to unfasten a screech owl from the presidential pompadour, which the low swooping raptor had mistaken for a road-kill fox." "The President's Secret Service's code name was "Mastotodon." He loved it. " "On only his second day in the Whit House, the President had ordered his chief of staff to arrange a trip to the National Zoo for a close-up look at a real mastodon." This was a library ebook through the Libby app.

Very well written erotic romance. It has twists and turns you don't know how they will unwind. I enjoyed it straight to the end.

A modern day pride and prejudice? Not even close. Gosh I don’t know why I slogged through this book. It really was pretty shallow and I found myself not caring how it ended!

I liked this book- it was funny how the dog hid his brush and then got really dirty, and they didn't know who he was!
