I found this to be one of the best books of a good series.
I like Abby, her boyfriend Jeff, and her sister Kate. I "know" them from previous books, and the fact Kate and Jeff were both acting out of character was part of what made this book interesting.
In this book, we were introduced to Emma, a strong young woman raising her younger siblings. She was a good, solid character that I enjoyed getting to know. We also had a variety of entertaining secondary charac More...

Abby gets called when a new client enlists her help in finding her long lost younger sister. It seems that Emma's won a sort of home makeover from a network, but they have a little catch - they want to dig into the family's past and exploit the story of the long lost sister. But when the demolition crew shows up, the producers get more drama than they expected when the skeleton of a baby is discovered.

Abby Rose loves what she does....helping adoptees find their birth parents...but working with a TV crew isn't quite her cup of tea. As if the task isn't already difficult, now Abby has to deal with the tv people getting in her way...and of course there's always Aunt Caroline who's continually horrified at Abby's choice of career. Another wild ride!

I really liked this book, but the ending was a little to explicit for me. Vey CSI like. Awesome book, but too graffic for my tastes. I freely admit though that I am extremely sensetive to violence.

Fun read, even though I figured out who the villian was early on, the ride was still great fun.

This was a strongly written mystery that makes me wait for the next one eagerly. The mystery was compelling and made the book a page-turner.
Excellent read.

I just love this series; I am so glad I stumbled across the lovely Abby Rose. Capable, believable, and likeable, just when I think she's going to fall into one of the "bumbling unprofessional girl detective" stereotypes she averts disaster. EVERY time.

Well written mystery with enjoyable characters. There is a past history with the characters that is a little confusing, so I would advise reading the series in order. Clean language. It's definitely not classic material but fairly in-depth for its genre.

I think this series gets better and better. I don't know how Leann does it. I love these characters.
I have the next in the series to read. Keep them coming Leann.

Fun mystery. It has sort of a chick-lit feel to it though there is very little time spent obsessing about clothing or weight.
