About this listen

Unsure if she is looking for Mr. Right, or Mr. Every Other Saturday Night, divorced mother of two, Laurel McKay reluctantly joins THE LOVE CLUB, a popular local dating service. Dressed to kill, she meets bachelor number one at a trendy restaurant. But the date is a bust, literally, when the guy decides Laurel is dessert, and she breaks his nose with her cell phone. It gets even worse when the man is found murdered the next morning, and Laurel has his blood on her clothes.

Despite her now being a person of interest to the police, Laurel bravely ventures out on date number two. When that unlucky bachelor disappears during dinner, Laurel's only alibi is a bottle of Dom Perignon. The sexy investigating detective thinks she's innocent and is worried she may be the next target. That's more than enough motivation for Laurel to find a murderer determined to kill her social life--before dating becomes a dead end she can't escape.

I loved this book. I read the book when it first came out and I really enjoyed it then. So I jumped at the chance to listen to it on Audible and do you know what I think it is even better than I remembered. It contains a good cast of characters and a solid well worked out mystery, with a good mix of home life adventures and investigations mishaps and it certainly holds your attention until the very end. All of it is a lot of fun and highly amusing. I think it is the characters that really make this series work so well. Laurel is basically a single mum, trying to work a job, solve a murder to clear her name and looking for love, all with a little help from her friends. By doing this the author has written a well rounded character who is likeable, a little bit vulnerable but like any super mom very capable and great fun to listen to. The author is now on book eight and knowing what happens throughout this fun series it is great to go back to the start, where it all began and I highly recommend starting with book one and working your way through the series, I am.
When Laurel finds herself alone on a Saturday night after her divorce. The single mother of two joins a dating site but is she looking for love in all the wrong places? Finding the right guy isn't easy, especially when her first date is a disaster and rather than a good night kiss, she breaks his nose and in the process becomes the number one murder suspect when he is found dead the next morning. Rather than cut her loses she agreed to meet another man from the site but this time someone doesn't wait for her date to end before killing him. With two of her dates ending in murder the police look hard at Laurel, especially as the murder weapon is the same for both men. If she doesn't want her children to grow up without a mother Laurel will have to find the killer herself but what is the connection between the two men? The dating site with plenty of suspects to interview,? or is it a little closer to home and Laurel herself is the connection? or something she doesn't know about? And will she ever find the right guy?
I liked the narrator and thought she was a pleasure to listen too. with a great range of voices for both the male and female characters.
