Some Like it Haute

2015 | Mystery

Her career is on ice. An arsonist turns up the heat. Can she snuff out the danger?

After agreeing to help her ex-boyfriend’s maybe-former girlfriend with a runway show, Samantha Kidd hides her broken heart behind her reputation. But when an unexpected attack outside the venue sends Sam to the hospital, her vulnerability is on full display. And worse: investigators believe she’s merely seeking attention.

A chance run with her ex makes it clear: she’s not over him. Determined not to play the victim, she leverages her connections to the fashion industry and sets out to find her attacker. When a fire breaks out on the catwalk of the show, she loses her cool. Forget her lukewarm love live--if she wants to feel safe again, she has to catch the culprit.

Can Samantha expose an angry arsonist before getting burned?

Some Like It Haute is the fourth sizzling mystery in the Style in a Small Town cozy mystery series. If you like strong-willed characters, romantic entanglements, and feel-good fiction, you’ll love Diane Vallere’s funny mystery.

Haute Time in a Small Town
Samantha Kidd has landed yet another temporary job in her home town of Ribbon, Pennsylvania. This time, she’s helping her ex-boyfriend’s maybe ex-girlfriend prepare a fashion show. Amanda is going to turn heads with this collection – assuming nothing goes wrong before then. Samantha thinks everything is going well, so she is surprised when she is fired the night before the big event. Then she is attacked on her way out to her car as she leaves. But when disaster strikes the show, Samantha begins to suspect that something larger is at work. Can she figure out what is going on?

The plot of this book started from page one and never let up. Samantha is facing quite a few challenges over the course of the story, and they always kept me engaged. While I don’t know much about fashion, it was used as a backdrop to the mystery, and I never felt left out. Having said that, Samantha’s fashion knowledge does provide her with a couple of clues that help her solve the mystery. Samantha is the strongest character in the book. The rest are interesting and hold our attention, but Samantha is the one who really shines. She’s also the one who gets the most growth, and I enjoyed watching that happen. I’m now anxious to see what happens to Samantha next.
