Description
Even in a city of long, tall beauties, psychologist Christina McMullen is used to getting hit on. But she's definitely not accustomed to having a hit on her. Until the day a charming stranger shows up at her door--and someone guns him down right in front of her. For Chrissy, shootings and explosions are what pass for normal in her tempestuous relationship with sexy LAPD lieutenant Jack Rivera. But the real mayhem begins when her brother Pete blows in from the Windy City trailing clouds of show more trouble in the form of a pregnant girlfriend, "borrowed" money, and a mobster named "D." Chrissy always said her family would be the death of her--but even L.A.'s sassiest shrink isn't prepared for the truth behind her brother's link to the dead stranger ... or the killer who threatens them both. show lessTags

These books really fit my sense of humor. I end up giggling through the whole story. The story itself seem to fly by far to quickly. Chrissy gets herself in one mess after another, and the dialogue is consistently witty and entertaining. If that's not enough to convince you, let me just say that Rivera is extremely hot, in that that good guy/bad boy kind of way.
As for the actual mystery side of things, I've been extremely impressed with all the books. The plots keep me guessing until almost the very end, while still giving enough hints that I end up giving myself a forehead slap for not figuring it out. It all looks so easy in hindsight.
I would highly recommend this series to anyone who likes a good laugh, enjoys a mystery, or is a show more fan of the Stephenie Plum books. I myself am eagerly anticipating the next book in the series, because the ending of One Hot Mess, while hilarious, also left me desperate to know what happens next. show less

This is a fun series. Think Stephanie Plum as a counselor.
