Trouble in Spades by Heather Webber
4.0
Very cute cozy mystery. Nina is still coming to grips with her separation from her cop husband after his infidelity. She is a landscape artist that creates surprise garden makeovers, while raising her teenage stepson.
Nina's needy sister Maria is getting married and boy does that create more work for Nina. when Nate (Maria's fiance) goes missing, Nina gets deeply embroiled in the case. Meanwhile at home, Nina's neighborhood has an unusual number of break ins, her step son is keeping her on her toes, and she ends up with a shivery little chihuahua named Gracie.
I love the crazy cast of characters in Nina's life, which include ex cons, a feisty curmudgeon ex-teacher, an old man nicknamed Flash, and a smoking hot assistant principal. Some how they all come together to create a fun, dual-mystery full of laughs and surprises.
I did not like some of the parts with her Ex, but that's a personal opinion, nothing that takes away from the writing. Really liked the ending and look forward to reading book 3.
