Tai Randolph book 3

This series is definitely becoming a favorite for me.

I actually enjoyed this one even more than the first two.  I love the relationship between Tai and Trey and the history/mystery/family craziness in this one was great.

Definitely read the first two first-- as much as each mystery basically stands alone, you really need to follow the development of the characters from book to book.

Tai Randolph book 2

A satisfying mystery with a romance that is by turns maddening and terribly sweet.

Wow, that sounded... I don't know... cheesy?

True, nonetheless.

I enjoyed this sequel and feel like the series is off to a great start.

The poetry slam aspects are fun and set up an interesting mystery.

All in all, highly recommended but I really do recommend you read the first one first.

R- 2

An interesting cozy mystery.

The characters are certainly intriguing.  Enough that I'm looking forward to a sequel.

Tai has just inherited a Confederate-themed gun shop when she gets an even bigger surprise-- a body shows up across the street from her brother's house where she's staying.  And he may or may not have been the last person to see the victim alive.

But, of course, he's already out of town and Tai's thrown into the crazy world of the security company he works with.
