author's reviews

5.0 out of 5 stars Light-hearted and humorousReviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 October 2020An enjoyable lighthearted read that is unpredictable, funny and full of well written characters. The author’s relaxed style of writing maintained my interest throughout and her sense of humour kept me giggling. The friendship that develops between the two main female characters is authentic and entertaining and through their discussions the author reveals the ups and downs of being a real estate agent. The final chapters are gripping and fast paced as the murder plot unfolds. All in all a fun read that won’t disappoint. Recommend. 

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific book!

  I ordered the kindle version — my first time ordering an electronic version of a novel — and I finished reading it already. What fun! A rollicking read with lots of twists and turns; it’s the perfect way to forget about the times. I am looking forward to Book 2. 

Great read

  I am always looking for a new author to read and enjoy.  I was so excited when I found author Ashley Addison’s new series. This mystery novel is highly entertaining, suspenseful and at times hilariously funny.  I can’t wait for the next book in the Vivianne Murphy Mystery Series. 

Format : Paperback

This is the perfect sequel to book #1! I enjoyed reading this very much - everything flowed nicely which made this a very easy read. Just like the first book, there are lots of parts for some inside laughter. The mystery was a good one and I couldn't have imagined the ending in a million years. Very well done! I hope there is a book #3 coming soon

Format : Paperback

I had read the first novel when it first came out. I live near the area where the author lived and I was trying to read 'between the lines'. Now that I have read the second book, I can't wait for the next one! I am currently reading the first one to get my memory back as to how it all began.
I love authors who has a series. Their characters become my family. I love their personalities and how they comingle. This second book is better as far as following the plot lines and the editing fine tuned. My only worry is I hope Vivianne's mother doesn't die. Some of us can relate to Vivianne's relationship with her mother. But gee, she is a character! Every book has a famous lines and this one will be ,you're "OUT OF THE WILL!" The other thing we don't read enough is middle aged women dating. Sex is hinted at but it takes your imagination to fill the blanks. The jokes are corny but  Ms. Addison brings back some zingers! Both books are worth your time and money.
