Christina McMullen, waitress turned psychologist, is in no
mood to be chased around her desk by her client, a famous
football player. Her temper worsens when the imbecile drops
dead at her feet with his pants unzipped. A hunky police
lieutenant named Jack Rivera does not buy her story, and
she's the number one suspect in the football player's
death. With a practice bordering on insolvency, Christina
has no option but to clear her name and reputation.
Christina gathers up her unusual friends, along with some
unwilling ones, to ferret information about her dead
client. While Christina sorts through clues and questions
suspects, she continues encountering a suspicious Rivera.
She tries to keep control of her hormones while attempting
to present a professional and sophisticated woman to
Rivera. Unfortunately, her down-home attitude coupled with
her sassy and smart mouth keeps getting in her way.
As Christina seeks answers from the most unlikely suspects,
attempts are made on her life. She soon realizes she's
uncovered a nest of vipers and her client's death may be
just the tip of the iceberg.
Successful historical author Lois Greiman enters the
humorous mystery genre with a likable and sassy heroine
involved in a hilarious murder. Guaranteed to deliver belly
laughs, readers will crave more from this wacky new sleuth.
Chrissy McMullen has made a career leap, all the way from
slinging drinks at Chicago’s most notorious nightclub to
dispensing psychotherapy from her sleek new practice in
L.A. Even if she can’t quite shed her too-loud, too-curvy
alter ego–or the brawling family that insists on claiming
kinship. So when her most famous client, buff football
star “Bomber” Bomstad, starts chasing her around her desk
and getting, well…unzipped…Christina gets just a little
miffed–until Bomber has the bad manners to drop dead at her
feet.
Enter Jack Rivera, a no-nonsense detective with a grim
attitude and a great butt, who’s determined to prove this
cocktail-waitress-turned-shrink was engaging in some very
unethical behavior. Persuading Rivera that she’s not a
murderer isn’t going to be easy. Plunging headfirst into a
city full of people in need of some serious therapy,
Chrissy will have to use all her street smarts, a good deal
of sex appeal, and a little love to clear her name–and
cancel an appointment with a killer.
