When Ellison Russell is nearly killed at a benefactors’ party, she brushes the incident aside as an unhappy accident. But when her house is fire-bombed, she’s shot at, and the person sitting next to her at a gala is poisoned, she must face facts.
Someone wants her dead. But why? And can Ellison find the killer before he strikes again?
Add in an estranged sister, a visiting aunt with a shocking secret, and a handsome detective staying in her guesthouse, and Ellison might need more than cream in her coffee.[summary via Amazon]
Ellison is back for another adventure in this third book in the Country Club Murders. It's a crazy time as Ellison is joined by a crazy aunt and a sister suffering a mid-life crisis. If that's enough, someone is trying to kill her.
I absolutely love the Country Club Murders. I read Guaranteed to Bleed (book 2) and Clouds in my Coffee (book 3) back to back. I simply can't get enough of Ellison Russell, her family and the elite snobby (aka bitchy) women in this series.
In Clouds in my Coffee we're introduced to Marjorie, Ellison's spoiled and selfish sister, and Aunt Sis, her eccentric aunt. With these two in town life gets really interesting, with new secrets and new enemies. The secrets are over-the-top juicy, and the action and adventure are fast-paced, as Ellison tries to figure out who is trying to kill her, and stop her family from an all-out brawl.
I love the fast-pace of this series. The book just flies past, as you get caught up in the life of the country club elite, and try to solve the mystery before Ellison. Add in the delicious lawyer, Hunter Tafft, and delectable homicide detective, Anarchy Jones, and this series a thrill a minute with a hot romantic atmosphere.
I can't say enough good things about this series. If you haven't checked it out yet you need to... now!
