Search - Deadly Gamble (Mojo, Bk 1)

Love the characters and the humor. Storyline is a little farfetched but then again maybe not.

It's an action packed, quirky character story. Before Mojo has recovered from one incident, she will have stumbled into another one (reminiscent of Anita Blake to me - no down time; she may not have slept in 24 hours). I wasn't sure in the beginning whether I would read the author again. However, at the end, I immediately searched PBS for additional books by this author and there is a sequel which I have ordered.

I enjoyed this book though I thought it was more suspense than romance. I like how the woman is independent. The book had humor which sorta downplayed the seriousness of the storyline. Mojo's parents were killed when she was 5 and she witnessed it but remembers nothing until this story takes place years later. A lot of side action is going on and some isn't resolved at the end of the story. I have the next book ready to read!

Slow to start but was good from there on. Also guessed who killer was from about the third chapter.

I enjoy Linda Lael Miller and just finished Deadly Gamble. The family humor was like Janet Evanovich and the relationship reminded me of Eve and Roark. I enjoyed it and will start book #2 Deadly Deceptions immediately!
