He's to Die For by Erin Dunn
4.25
adventurous funny lighthearted mysterious medium-paced

When Rav lands a major case as a detective, he meets Jack, the leading singer of a popular band. Jack is currently in a battle with his past record label for the rights for his bands songs (seems pretty poetic this was mentioned so close to Taylor Swift’s win). However, Jack ends up the prime suspect in Rav’s case, when someone from the record label winds up deceased with unanswered questions. As time goes on, Rav and Jack develop a closer relationship, but that can’t act on anything in their current state. What happens if Rav loses jurisdiction? Throughout the story, the threats increase against Jack: are some of his fans a bit too close for comfort? Can he rely on his band? The case had multiple threads, but can they be tied together? Jack did get Rav one of the coolest gifts with the rock albums, but the sentimental find was the best. Despite being a mystery read, the book found a way to be lighthearted.
