Rolling Stone's 496th greatest album of all time
Not an artist I was familiar with. To be honest, I though Boz Scaggs was a character from a Western. An interesting album, at times reminiscent of Joe Cocker and Neil Young, at other times like the Bugsy Malone soundtrack. Not my cup of tea and unlikely one I will listen to again. The yodelling was mercifully brief.

Lucas Knight never wants to get shot again. If thinking the pain from a bullet in your side was bad, being stuck at home not released for work duty is a bigger pain to deal with. To top it off he wakes up with a woman at his side and no memory of how they got there. He gets the hell out of his apartment before she wakes up and it gets awkward. Making his way into the office to see if maybe he could fudge his way around his non-release and get back into a case. Joe and Archer might throw him a bone if they see him around the office.

Molly Malone is tired of living as Joe’s younger sister or just the office help. She wants to get her own case to solve for their company and thinks Santa might just be the way. Waking up in Lucas’ bed, even knowing nothing happened, lands her the perfect opportunity to get what she wants one way or another.

Molly and Lucas set out to vindicate the angry elves and figure out the money trail. All the while they start understanding their attraction to each other. Can they find a way to mix business and pleasure for the whole package?

I loved this book, my first Heartbreaker Bay book to read (though I have most on my TBR shelf). I absolutely loved the hashtags as chapter titles angle. And the relationship between Molly and Lucas has all the dimensions we look for in a partner. Her father brings awareness to PTSD and protective father’s humor where their daughters are concerned. I voluntarily read an advance copy without expectations for review. Any and all opinions expressed are my own. 4 ½ stars for this return to Heartbreaker Bay.
