Tara Hollaway is an IRS special agent who is in way over her head. She is supposed to be collecting back taxes from super sexy country singer Brazos Rivers. The only problem is that every time she is around Brazos she becomes star struck. This is not only a problem for Tara but also for special agent Nick Pratt, Tara's boyfriend.

DEATH, TAXES, AND SILVER SPURS is the seventh installment in Diane Kelly's Tara Holloway series. I have read all of the previous books, but I loved that there is enough back-story included that you would not be lost if this is the first book you have read in the series.

Diane Kelly has a way of writing that pulls you into each page. Her characters' chemistry is amazingly written. This book showed different sides to the characters that we had not seen much of in the previous books. Tara is a sassy, smart-mouthed, trigger-happy lady. Her reaction to being around a sexy country singer made her seem even more human to me. The same goes for Nick.

The storyline is easy to follow. The combination of humor, romance, and mystery had me turning the pages faster and faster. I could not put the book down. Diane Kelly is a marvelous storyteller. She once again has a hit on her hands!
