I love this silly series. I read the last book so long ago that it took a while for me to remember all the characters and where the story had left off. It’s not a piece of profound literature, but I still give it five stars because I love all the main women characters and it’s a fun book that can make any bad day easier.

Guess who’s back ? Fin and the gang. Loved the antics and mystery as we follow the crew to New Jersey to try to resolve what was started from book one. I enjoyed the continuation of this series and the epilogue made me 👀 If you are looking for a series that doesn’t take itself too seriously, try out this one.

Finlay Donovan is off on another adventure this time in Atlantic City.
The book was fun as usual, but it took a bit longer to get going and get me engaged than the other books.
Overall, I didn't enjoy it as much as the other books. Because the side characters weren't as involved, and it wasn't as funny as the previous book. I did enjoy the ending though!
Narrator Rating: 5.0 stars
The narrator did a fantastic job as usual!

This installment of the series was such a delight. It was fun to get to know some favorite side characters even better while Finlay and Vero are up to their typical shenanigans. As always it was witty, ridiculous, hilarious, and somehow relatable.
Thank you to Net Galley for the audiobook!

If you liked the first two Finlay Donovan books, you’ll like this one. It’s the same sort hijinks with Finlay, Vero, and the usual cast of characters in a different setting: Atlantic City.
It was nice to see a little bit of growth in some of the characters. Overall, it was a fun, quick read.
<spoiler/> I thought we were going to have a resolution and the series would end as a trilogy but there’s a loose thread at the very end of the book so I’m assuming there will be another. <spoiler/>
