clever!” —Beverly Barton
Lost Girl
She was last seen in New Orleans. Her
father, a rich, powerful arms dealer, believes she was abducted. For ransom.
For revenge. For reasons too horrible to imagine.
Lost Innocence
Claire Morgan, recent former cop turned
private investigator, and her new partner begin their search at the girl’s
school, where a violent junkie attacks Claire with scissors, raves of “demons
and devils,” and then takes her own life.
Last Rites
Sinister clues lead Claire on a twisted
trail through the bars and bayous of New Orleans to a bloodstained altar in
Paris. Vast, secret, and powerful, it is a world that few enter or escape. And
Claire is going in—the devil be damned…

California coast. The race is a fundraiser for the local preservation society—but
not everyone is feeling so charitable…
The day of the race, everyone hits the
ground running…until a local business owner stumbles over a very stationary
body. The deceased is the vicious wife of the husband-and-wife team hired to
promote the event—and the husband turns to Jill for help in clearing his name.
But did he do it? Jill will have to be very careful, because this killer is
ready to put her out of the running…forever!

The
Lady in Pink
Deadly Ever After, 2

Lyrical Underground
Coming home to find a dead body in your
living room isn’t the best way to end a long day’s work, especially when that
work is as New Never City’s premier blue-haired PI. It’s even worse when the
corpse is your intern, electrocuted to death, and you’re the one with enough
voltage flowing through your veins to power Fairyland.
Blue Reynolds has nabbed his fair share
of criminals—with and without the help of his alluring half-fairy partner
Isabella Davis—but this one is proving to be more slippery than most. As Blue
and Izzy investigate who might have wanted a lowly intern dead—and why—they
begin to uncover a diabolical plan that could put both of their lives in
danger…and unearth shocking secrets that stretch deep into Blue’s shadowy
family history.
My Thoughts:
Let me just say I loved The Lady in Pink. It's absolutely fantastic. However, there are a few things you need to know before you start this particular story: 1) Still not your happy cheery fairytale that we have all grown to love. Basically what Disney has painted as fairytales. That is a whole other subject that we are just not going to get into. Nitty and gritty like the first book. 2) If you embark on this story, you should probably read the first story, because you will need the background of Blue and Izzy. 3) Still a lot of messed things going on New Never City, and add a dash of twist to the story. Seriously, I didn't see them until the end. Okay, I kind of guess some of them, but not to the extent of the twist. 4) It's a mystery, you are galavanting throughout New Never City and areas around it.
Like the first book, we are hanging out a lot with Blue. He's still the same outlook on life and it's quite humorous. Yet, he needs to solve a murder that happen in his own apartment that leads him to discover other things that connect to his past. We actually learn a lot about Blue's past, and it's mind blowing. Blue and Izzy have this sexual tension, but Blue doesn't want to go pass business partner/ friend line. Which complicates things since they're extremely attracted to one another. Of course you have add the new characters that maybe good or bad.
Yes, it's still nitty gritty and probably be more like how the Brothers Grimm would have love to see these characters modernize. When I was reading the story it kind of reminded me of the tv show Grimm. Anyway, if you don't mind your fairytale characters leading a darker side you might enjoy this series. However, if you lean towards the Disney portrait of fairytales you might want to look elsewhere.
