I’m not sure there’s anything I enjoyed about this book. Too long, too many characters, too many storylines (and they don’t all get wrapped up in this book), TOO HORNY (like the random orgasm Sunshine had in her sleep in front of a bunch of people?? So incredibly unnecessary) . Overall, this book was trying to be way too many things and in the end it made me super disinterested in the main storyline.
I really liked this. However, Sunshine is Charley. I wanted something new. It was the same humor, snark and weird love/hate male ‘relationship’. It didn’t help that Lorelei King narrates both series. And also Stephanie Plum, who has a similar feel to the series. I guess Lorelei is the queen of snarky female protagonists
Thought this was a cozy mystery. Too much profanity and lust for my taste. Very disappointed

Ok, so this definitely is not "laugh out loud funny" as the reviews claim, but it's cute, very reminiscent of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum novels. Sunshine Vicram is a newly appointed sheriff of Del Sol, New Mexico, the town she grew up in. A young girl has gone missing in the town, after having premonitions her entire life that this would happen. Sunshine is able to solve the case with the help of some of the citizens of Del Sol, other deputies in her departments, and her daughter, a high school student who is on her way to follow in her mother's footsteps. While solving this case of the missing girl, we are given breadcrumbs on Sunshine's past in which she was drugged, abducted, and then left in the hospital with no idea of who took her. This book is the first in a series and it did end on a cliff hanger, so I will be reading the next installment, even though I wasn't blown away with this. It had a lot of characters and at times I would get confused on who is who. There's a lot of extra fluff as well, making this book longer than it should have been. It was much lighter than I was expecting and easy to read in between heavy books. The banter between Sunshine and her daughter was so cliche and I think Jones tried too hard in that aspect, but otherwise, cute story which a bit of suspense.

Oh this book was not written for me. I hated it. Too cutesy and precious. Trying to be Loralei and Rory and it fell flat. Too much smirk thrown in with ageism and old drunk humor. Nope.
