Still loving this series. But like auri…get it together. I can’t deal with her antics again in the 3rd book.

just read it

If only we all could have a Levi. And a Sunshine. Oh, and a bff like Quincy. Wonderful, funny, heartwarming and steamy.

I loved [b:A Good Day for Chardonnay|53137959|A Good Day for Chardonnay (Sunshine Vicram, #2)|Darynda Jones|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1625788053l/53137959._SX50_.jpg|79888435].

[a:Darynda Jones|4175419|Darynda Jones|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1599861160p2/4175419.jpg] has a way of creating stories that are 80% fun, but with a dark heart that make me cry at least once per novel and this one was no different.

With the background of Sunshine's abduction, another abduction, serious injuries to central characters, and the death of a loved character, this book is still a genuinely fun read. But none of the fun, occasional silliness, and snarky comments trivialise what the characters go through. It reads like genuine "emergency services" gallows humour.

I will be counting the days to the next installment.

Absolutely love this series. Love the humour! So many tears shed! Then more humour! Can’t wait to see what’s next for Sunshine!
