But when she discovers a dead body in her trunk during a routine repo job, Holly has to tap into her fighting skills to solve the mystery. Hunt down the killer, and save her from a wrongful conviction that would take her away from her daughter…

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The author devised some characters that I found very interesting. The protagonist in particular was a wonderfully flawed character. The setting of the story was a great choice also. I found the story very compelling. I like this author.

Enjoyed the characters and the locale. Mia Gold does an excellent job in descriptions of both. Will no doubt purchase books two, three, and four in the series.

“Very well written and kept your interest until the end. Just enough comical parts to enlighten the mood on occasion and intrigue enough to keep you engaged with the storyline.”

    The story creates great interest in the female. Her presentation includes difficult situations. These situations bring happy results in how the character deals with negative parts of life. Thank you!

    I was rooting for this book. Felt for the character but just couldn’t get past Chapter 15. Too slow to get going.

    There were several instances where the character’s names were switched around. I had to read and reread to make sure I understood what the author was trying to communicate. Also, several words that were used incorrectly and didn’t make sense. But overall, the story was good and I will continue the series.

    This is a new author for me and I can say one to add to my library. I loved Holly and her daughter Olivia. Ms. Edith was a trip. Actually the whole cast of characters delighted me. The series is one I will enjoy with each repo she does. Even the dog has character.
