Newly divorced Penny Francisco is appalled at the shade of
pink (vaginal) her ex, Deke, is painting their house. She's
appalled at the woman (cheating blonde bimbo bitch) he's
moved into their house. In fact, she's appalled at her
divorce all together. But what can a girl do? Let her
friends throw her a divorce party, of course.
With surprise out-of-town guests, a little too much to
drink and an encounter with a sexy stranger in the hallway,
Penny feels better than she's felt in a long time. When she
receives a voodoo doll in the likeness of Deke, she gamely
starts poking it. After all, this is Mojo, Louisiana, and
it's all in fun. Right?
Wrong. After the party is over, Penny heads home to find an
urgent message from Deke. When she can't reach him on the
phone, she decides to walk off her buzz and see what he
wants. Finding Deke dead, stabbed in the exact same place
as his voodoo doll, sends Penny reeling. Sheena, the bimbo
girlfriend, finds Penny with Deke and assumes Penny is his
killer. So do the cops! It's just all too much of a
coincidence. Penny's not sure how she's gonna get out of
this mess.
Enter the mysterious man she encountered in the hallway
earlier. BJ Beaumont is a private eye dedicated to finding
missing children. That's what's brought him to Mojo, but
what's going to keep him in Mojo is helping Penny clear her
name. As Penny and BJ dig deeper into Deke's mysterious
activities during his last days, they find unexpected
connections to town big wigs and ties to voodoo. The
biggest discovery is their attraction to each other and the
lengths they'll go to avoid it. However, getting shot at
and magic voodoo sex drinks work against them and sparks
fly. Will they even survive to see where this relationship
will go?
A satisfying tale of sex, love and voodoo, I highly
recommend this book as your guilty pleasure on the
nightstand.
Start With Bad Mojo ...
There's something strange afoot in the small town of Mojo,
Louisiana. Yet even as the annual voodoo festival gets
underway, Penny Francisco, who runs a health food business,
refuses to believe in black magic. Her mind is on
celebrating her divorce from her lying, cheating husband
Deke.
Add a Pinprick of Revenge ...
Fueled by run-ins with her ex-mother-in-law and Deke's
busty mistress, Penny is eager for the "emancipation party"
her friends plan. When she receives a Deke voodoo doll as a
gag gift, she sticks it with a pin as a joke. But when Deke
winds up fatally stabbed, the police aren't laughing.
And Watch Things Boil Over ...
A junk-food junkie P.I. offers his services, and although
Penny is wary of the sexy Cajun's motives (and his diet),
she's desperate. Dodging a media sideshow and a looming
murder rap, Penny realizes that somehow she's landed
herself In Deep Voodoo.
