Roxann Beadleman just received an ominous message that resurrects old secrets, and her debutante cousin Angora Ryder was just jilted at the alter. A road trip to accomplish thing on a life list they made in college leads them back to their alma mater for Homecoming, and to the professor they were both in love with...
But Angora doesn't know that Roxann is wanted for questioning in a police matter, or that a dangerous criminal could be following them. Detective Joe Capistrano is on their heels, too, determined to charm information out of Roxann and to protect her, whether she wants it or not...
Once Roxann and Angora hit campus, their lives are turned on end. Professor Irresistible is majoring in Seduction, old skeletons are leaping from closets, and Detective Capistrano is closing in. Roxann and angora soon find themselves thrust into a chilling lesson of murder, and if either of them gets out of this mess alive, could true love be at the end of their chase?
This is a pretty enjoyable read, nothing too dark and heavy and the characters are likable and interesting enough to hold my attention. It has a Stephanie Plum-like feel to it but it's a little more closer to reality than the Evanovich books. It has some nicely done but not over the top humor, a bit of romance and a mystery plot that kept me guessing. It's one of the better books I've read this year.
