Off the Books (Novel Idea, #5)

In Off the Books, Lila is helping prepare for a bridal expo jointly presented by an event organizer and the literary agency she works for. The event no sooner gets started than Lila, already nicknamed the "murder magnet" by some in town, finds yet another corpse. This one turns out to have been murdered in a way suggestive of scenes from two of her agency's authors' books. With A Novel Idea's reputation at stake, Lila's boss decides that the staff of the agency need to band together to find out who the real murderer is.

An unusual method of murder and a plethora of suspects kept me guessing until the end, and Lila's personal life kept it interesting as well. I enjoyed getting to know the staff at A Novel Idea and Lila's family and friends, and can't wait to return to Inspiration Valley to learn more about them. I've already picked up book #1 in the series so that I can catch up.

I would highly recommend this one to all cozy mystery lovers, or to anyone who has ever thought about publishing a book (or is even a little bit curious about the process). I enjoyed the glimpses into Lila's professional life - enough to give you a taste of a literary agent's life but not bog down the story with too many details.

NOTE: I received a free copy from the author in exchange for my honest review.

Let me say this book definitely surpassed all my expectations!!

I know we've all been there... that isle of books at the store with the Harlequin titles trying to decide if we want another feel good, know how its gonna end type of story. LET me advise you. This book IS NOT your typical Love Inspired book (of which I will admit to reading ... almost everyone published). I had to do a double check of the page count with this one honestly. Toni Shiloh managed to fit SO much depth of character, layered background, and faith based elements that I was enamored of the book from the beginning and scratching my head wondering how something so marvelous could come out of such a tiny package!

I loved the plot, a true friends-to-lovers/ girl-next-door/ marriage of convenience story that I have.. uhem already reread. I loved Omar's little ones that Toni Shiloh filled with life and love. Plus, I really enjoyed the circumstance that Toni Shiloh put Trinity and Omar into! Great chemistry and awkwardness between the two of them.

Overall, one of my favorite reads ever in terms of modern character development and storyline. A definite 5 star read you DO NOT want to miss!

WILD FIXATION is the second book in the Rebel Rockstars series. This time, it's lead singer Jacob's turn. He has been fixated on Seth, the bodyguard, since their tour with The Ten Hours. Of course, nothing can happen... which you immediately know means something will happen!

This is definitely a case of star-crossed lovers, at least to begin with. They both like each other, but both know they need to be professional. Sometimes though, that isn't enough. I did enjoy the push-and-pull between them both as they tried to do the right thing. The flirting disguised as teasing was fun to read.

I loved the support Jacob had from his friends/bandmates. It was nice to read a book about a band without the usual theatrics and infighting. I want to go back and read Keannen and Tim's story, but I'm also looking forward to Shawn's!!!

The one thing I didn't really understand was the whole Ryan situation. I know it was necessary for Seth and Jacob, but WHY?!?! Given his history, I wanted to know his reasons. Anyway, moving on...

This was a great book that I thoroughly enjoyed and have no hesitation in recommending.
