Does Finlay make a lot of stupid decisions. Yes. If Finlay the sharpest crayon in the box. No. Did I still really enjoy this book. Yes. I think it had a lighthearted natured, maybe driven by all the stupid decisions that I really enjoyed. I laughed a lot at some parts and was always waiting to see what happened next.

This was a fun read! Finlay is sweeped into the world of organized crime when she is mistakenly taken for a hit woman for hire. Of course she has no choice but to chronological the experience which turns into a best selling novel.

Finlay and Vero are awesome! The recently divorced mom of two kids who writes mystery novels becoming a mystery novel was a fantastic choice. Not only was it not cliche but every choice was something I could realistically see an average citizen doing, especially one with Finn's connections to both the police and murder. The romance was more of a sideplot which I actually appreciated in this book! I am super excited for the next one and can't wait to see where the story goes!
