Alas, Maddie and Ramirez get married in this one. But there is still some good Felix moments and moments where Maddie ditches wedding stuff to investigate with Felix. The end, with the two of them, is just sad.This one kind of had a random piece of the mystery revealed at the end, but I still e...
The title is totally inappropriate, since the main character is pregnant and should not be wearing high heels! This is another one of the fluffy type books--well, murder isn't fluffy but... Her husband the police officer apparently can't keep her from finding crime scenes. Dana is a buff type ...
This was a smooth easy read. I loved the two aunts aka - the gruesome twosome. I had trouble believing that a 20-something journalist would really carry a Strawberry Shortcake purse. The purple streaks I could see. I've worked in several places with co-workers that would put streaks in their ...
Didn't mind this. It was a bit farfetched in places but overall an easy read and fun in places. Not sure I'll bother with the whole series, though. Plus the actual book itself ended 82% of the way through. The remainder was a look into the second instalment. 18% is a tad excessive, I thought !! A...
Fun, quick read! If I could give this half stars I would have rated it 3.5 stars because it wasn't bad it was just...what I expected. I've read reviews of Gemma's and one of the biggest complaints I often see is about her character's food choices. Yes, food choices! What a silly thing to get pick...
I don't read a lot of short stories and novella, mainly because I often feel like the stories don't give me enough time to really get to know the characters enough to really bond with them. But because I am familiar with the series and the character in it, I thought this short story would work fo...
This was the second novella I read from this series, after the first one I wasn't ready to commit to a full length novel. I really wanted to like these characters more than I did, the idea of Maddie the clever shoe designer and Ramirez the cop appealed to me. I love The Stephanie Plum series by J...
Maddie springer up to her shenanigans again! She's so cute! Quick, fast, fun read! LOVE this series. It is all so very LA which I love since it is my hometown.
I've read ALL of the books in the High Heels Mystery series & they just keep getting better & better! Gemma Halliday's latest in the series "Fearless in High Heels" will keep you laughing and gasping until the end! I read this in one night and kept waking my poor hubby up because I couldn't stop ...
I absolutely love this series. The storyline is so well written and so well thought out, that this is one of my favorite series now. Maddie is such a mayhem magnet that I couldn't put these books down. I laughed out loud and shook my head a lot while I read some of the scenarios playing out. The ...
I got this as a free Kindle download. This book has it all- mystery, humor, romance.What happens when a member of the paparazzi gets too close to a big star's personal life? A chain of events that keeps you reading! The twists and turns of the story are great. I think I fell a little in love with...

Cute and fluffy, definitely some parallels between it and Stephanie Plum books.Imagine Ryan Seacrest being the mogul of reality TV in charge of American Idol/Dancing With the Stars, The Bachelor and Jon & Kate Plus 8. Imagine someone kills him and all the people on his shows are suspects.You'll b...
Cute, fun read. Nothing super-spectacular or mind-blowingly twisty, but sometimes you just want to sit back and have fun reading. I kept thinking, this must be what reading an episode of Remington Steele would be like (if it was all Stephanie Z. and no Pierce Brosnan). There are a couple flir...
I have read all the books in this series and "Homicide in High Heels" is a great addition. I love all the characters. Maddie is a great detective and it was nice to have her be able to take a lead in this case. The descriptions of Ramirez as a stay at home Dad had me laughing out loud. The birthd...
Although I didn't read the first book in this series, it was easy to get into the swing of things with the main characters and their interactions. Jamie Bond has joined her father's detective agency, mostly working on proving or disproving cases of infidelity for concerned spouses. Her friend, AD...

The 'High Heels Mysteries' have turned out to be an obsession of late. While ‘Spying in High Heels’ introduced me to the intoxication, ‘Killer in High Heels’ turned me into an addict, and now, having done with ‘Undercover in High Heels’, the third book in the series, I find it difficult not to co...

printin it in mon’s homepage! All we had to do now was wait for our killer to strike. At me. At Herbert Hoover High, homecoming was one of those things usually reserved for a certain type of girl—a girl with a date. Since I hadn’t been one of those girls until this morning, there was one gaping h...
Clearly Laforge had sent out a widespread text, as contestants and members of the pageant crew alike filed down the escalators beside us. Everyone wore the same expression of tightly contained nerves. While I was pretty sure the majority of us were hoping Laforge would say the pageant would conti...
link and clicked through to the rest of the Yahoo News story about the death of Alec Davis. It had been one month exactly since the attack. I couldn’t say I’d really gotten over it, but the bruises around my neck had almost faded. A good thing too, as I’d just about run ...
I didn’t bother with the witty banter. In fact I didn’t even give him a second look. He was scenery as far as I was concerned. About as interesting as the azalea shrubs along the sidewalk. I’m not sure he regarded me with the same detached lack of interest, his eyes burning into the back of my he...

It looked like a regular body shop: parked cars, oil cans, spare tires, greasy rags. But a scary air of silence mingled with three thugs positioned around a white Camaro. They all glanced up when I pulled in.I should've driven away, but that wasn't my style. Besides, how else would I get answers?...
I yelled. Trace clamped a hand over my mouth. “Jesus, you want the whole airport to know?” he mumbled. I looked around. Two businessmen in the seats next to me were staring. Trace gave them his hundred-watt smile, nodding comfortingly, as he unclamped my mouth. In deference to them, I pseudo-whis...
