review 1: This quirky, funny, sexy murder mystery had me laughing, cringing, and sighing. Roberta becomes Bobbie, after her husband leaves her. She gets a makeover and follows him to Cottonmouth, where she meets the suspected/rumored 'serial killer', Nick. Nick decides to play along with the rumors, and those scenes were humorous. It's great that Nick's POV is included.I loved Bobbie's feisty side. She goes from conservative to sexy. After having to leave her accounting job, she chooses to be a waitress in Cottonmouth to meet people. This starts a chain that leads to her staying in Warren's and her cottage across from the town's accused serial killer/ porn star(?). She flaunts convention (and safety) in her attraction to Nick. She's 40; he is 38. She is 'hunting' for Warren, her hus... moreband, and learns that she's 'hot' in Cottonmouth. Then there is the murder. Bobbie ends up in the midst of it. It was a good twist, and I enjoyed how Bobbie ended up with all that she wanted and more. It's one that I have read more than once.
review 2: I have mixed feelings about this book. I thought the overall premise and plot were pretty good and interesting. I enjoy reading about small towns and its quirky townspeople. What I didn't get was Roberta/Bobbie and her 1) obsession with her ass 2) crazy need to help her husband reconnect with an old flame 3) follow/stalk said husband to small town 4) try to save husband from deranged old flame! And while I enjoyed Nick Angel's character, I didn't like how he let everyone always think the worse of him when they had no reason to. I mean to think that a person is a serial killer just because he was a rambunctious teenager and did a supposed adult film is just plain ignorant.So, it had its good parts and it had its really weird stupid parts. Didn't care for Bobbie's character at all but it was a pretty good read, lots of action, plenty of mystery and a few sexy scenes with the crazy sexy Nick Angel himself.... less
