Gaffe Out Loud (The Worst Detective Ever Book 7) by Christy Barritt

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Actress Joey Darling is beginning a new season . . . of her TV show and her life.

Joey Darling’s life is finally on track. Her hit series has been picked up by a new network, her relationship with Detective Jackson Sullivan couldn’t be better, and she’s even bought a house. But right after taking possession, Joey discovers a dead body upstairs. 

Joey knows she won’t have any peace until she figures out why a dead woman was left at her house and who killed her. And she desperately needs peace as the “normal” life she’s trying to establish quickly progresses from great to the brink of collapse. 

The countdown is ticking as Joey must soon leave to begin filming. But one gaffe after another slows her investigation and makes her question her choices. The closer Joey gets to answers, the more someone is determined to make sure this season of her life is canceled—permanently.

MY THOUGHTS:
I forgot how much I missed reading this series until it came back! I love Joey and Jackson! As always trouble just seems to fall into Joey’s lap this time she didn’t have Jackson as much to help her out but she still seems to get things going anyway. Their rocky relationship had me on the edge of my seat because I want to see great things for them! The Author doesn’t disappoint with the direction their relationship is headed(no spoilers here!) can’t wait to read more in this series.

MY THOUGHTS:
Loved this one! It is edge of your seat suspense and had me guessing to the end which I love! Harper is amazingly strong. She and Luke have a rocky start but make a great team! The one had just the right amount of suspense and a bit of romance I really enjoyed it and was pulled in from the first few pages.
