This debut novel by Andi Ramos is cute, funny, and a great addition to the genre. Sheagan is spunky, independent, and determined. Her world has been rocked following the death of her father and the discovery of how Rat Bastard, aka her boyfriend, really is cheating on her. Her father had been a very successful private detective and she picked up a few tricks along the way. Her first case is tracking down the aforementioned boyfriend, but she quickly falls into another case, a real case. A man seeks his missing wife. Sheagan jumps on the opportunity and soon finds herself knee-deep in an FBI case and inadvertently getting herself into trouble. 

Trouble is compounded by the appearance of two men in her life. One is an old friend from high school who grew up into quite a lovely specimen. The other is an FBI agent who gets under her skin and triggers a passionate response. You know, the guy who makes you so crazy that you can't help but fall for him and have no idea why? 4 1/2 stars!

What a delightful mystery. I don’t even know if I’d call the genre romantic suspense. It’s almost a cozy. It’s your everyday mean mad cop, well maybe cute FBI agent in this book, who picks on a cute, very funny female Private Investigator type of story. But this is a fast-moving full of action mystery.

The characters here are well-defined and easy to see in one’s mind. There are three or four quite important characters and yet every one of them has his or her own distinctive personality. Being able to “see” a character as I read always makes a story much more enjoyable for me. I did find 8 or 9 typos, more mixed up words than typos and this sort of thing ruins my reading rhythm, but this is a really good book. I’d be glad to send my typos to the author/publisher at any time. Would sure not want a few mix-ups to ruin such a great start for this author.

The setting is great. The complete picture of a new memorable character is perfect. Easy to read and definitely the start of what I hope will be a series to come. Kudos to Andi Ramos.

Couldn't put it down! Sheagan - what an original name - is quirky, fun, spirited, and driven. Her life may have become a mess after her unexpected fall from grace (read the book, you'll understand my reference), but she is determined to make her way on her own. Not overly romantic, nor overly adult - I really enjoyed learning Sheagan's story and love how it was left open for a sequel to come.

Andi Ramos is a promising author. I loved this book! A breezy entertaining read, just what the Doctor ordered after a stressful day. Escape in this guilty pleasure, I really think you owe it to yourself to enjoy the shenanigans as the main character, Sheagan, trips her way through an investigation. Snappy dialogue and carefully crafted quirky characters add spice to this novel. Her turn of phrase was surprisingly well developed for a new author, I could picture each scene and character in my mind's eye. The future looks bright for Andi Ramos and her Sheagan! Being from the Boston area originally, I am giving the author a pass on calling Southie the South End...LOL! She did a fantastic job and I can't wait for her next book. Looking forward to seeing where this series leads me and watching her develop into a seasoned author and consummate story teller!
