Wild Jinx was recommended to me and I have to say it was a fun read. It had me laughing. Tante Lulu is a 92 year old woman, who is truly something else. The things that she says and does can have you laughing. She reminds me of Daisy Moses from The Beverly Hillbillies. John LeDeux is Tante's nephew and they both love each other so much. Tante is trying to find John a wife. She is known for trying to find the LeDeux men wives. The funny thing about it, she arranges these surprise weddings. The hero and heroine can think they are going to a party, when actually they are going to their own wedding. Now that's messed up!Celine Arseneux is a reporter, who is two years younger than John. They have gone to the same high school and college. She show more had a crush on John for years. He's the hottie and she's the geek. She probably have dressed like a geek in school, but she's not a geek now. When John and Celine meet again after not seeing each other for years, the tension starts. They meet up at a sex club. They both were undercover. They get arrested with other people in the club. Celine basically blows her cover, but John doesn't. But, eventually, Celine blows his cover for him. That leads him to go into hiding with his family. They are participating in hunting for treasures. Celine has to do a story on them and doesn't realize that John is one of the hunters. When she finds out, she is asked not to do a story just yet and that she had to stay with everyone, so that no one (The mob) can follow her back and harm John.John and Celine's tension take steps up the ladder. Tante Lulu is trying to hook them up, not knowing that they had a hooked up back in college.I will end this review right now. If you have this book in your TBR pile, give it a try. You might just find yourself liking the book. show less
