I've just finished reading "Southern Peril the 3rd book in her Jersey Barnes Mystery series by T. Lynn Ocean.
Product Description
Why is it so hard for Jersey Barnes to retire? When a state supreme judge calls in a favor, she tells herself (again) that this is her last case. She must investigate the judge’s brother, Morgan, and his newly-inherited business. When Jersey realizes the DEA is checking on Morgan, too, she finds herself in the middle of a twentyyear- old mystery and a drug ring investigation. Still checking up on her geriatric father and his trouble-making friends, negotiating the steamy friendship/relationship with her bartender Ox, and dodging the flirtacious sparks flying back and forth with the cute DEA agent, Jersey begins to wonder if retirement is ever in her future. On the heels of the lauded Southern Poison, readers will welcome another hilarious, suspenseful, and sun-soaked adventure from the unforgettable Jersey Barnes.
My Review:
Storyline: I really enjoyed reading this fast paced food themed book. The setting was two restaurants and there was more than one storyline.
Characters: The characters were well written especially Jersey, Morgan and Brad Logan.
Romance: I did enjoy the sparks between Jersey and Brad. She has kind of a boyfriend/co-ower relationship with Ox Oxendine but he's spending time with his daughter in a different city.
Killer: Didn't know much about the killer other than his name and why he was after his victim.
This is the first book I read from this author but I definately will check out the other books in this series!
