"Maddie is back. This time in Vegas with family and friends. Her absentee father finally decides to surface in her life and needs her help to get him out of a jam. And that's not the only surprise he has for her. I don't know what happened to the series. I enjoyed the first one quite a bit. This one, not so much. In fact, if I didn't already order the rest of the books, or had read this one first, I would not be reading the others. There was zero growth from the first book. The characters actually lost some depth if anything. The story is pretty much Ramirez telling Maddie, 'I'm going to tell you all the secrets I'm not allowed to tell anyone. Then I want you to stay right here while I try to do my job.' Then Maddie tells everyone what she was told and does the one thing she was not supposed to do. Then Ramirez miraculously shows up and saves her. Again. About as unlikely as they come. If Ramirez were a real person and not a cardboard cutout of a good cop, he would have ax murdered Maddie about a third of the way through this book. (4/10)"
"This book was an easy read and lots of fun. It would be a great summer/beach read. Hard to beat the combination of drag queens and the mafia for fun! The only reason I didn't rate it higher is beacause it's very "light" - there's no "message" and the mystery isn't especially mysterious. Still, I will probably pick up other books by Halliday."
"This is the second in a series about Maddie, a kid's shoe designer, that has a hunky cop for a sort-of boyfriend. This time her dad contacts her after many years. turns out he is a drag queen in Vegas, that must be where Maddie gets her love of shoes.
While the book is good, sometimes I wonder about female characters and their ability to get into so much trouble even when asked to not do something that would land them in that hot spot. So in that respect, her character irritates me."
"This one was much better than the first one. I started and finished it in 3 days. There were many more laugh out loud moments in this book than in the first. These books are very predictable, but very enjoyable at the same time. If you are looking for a quick enjoyable read, you will find it here."
