Get A Clue (2008) - Plot & Excerpts

This book was a heavy double edged sword to me, there were many moments of laugh out loud hilarity, melt your heart sweetness, and rev your engine hotness. Then there were many moments of knock your head against the wall frustration, was that really needed irritation and worst of all, the why was that even mentioned confusion. I had questions about like why did Breanne it have to happen 3 times when once was bad enough (it actually made it a little harder for me to like her) and then why did her brothers get mentioned so often when they were truly no benefit to the story? I was rooting more for the Shelly and Dante than the actual HEA and thought that seemed a little corny that the other two were shaking up too. I love Jill Shalvis and her writing style as far as the banter between characters goes and usually her characters are what keep me glued to the book, usually for those reasons I can look past the unanswered questions and holes in the story. This time it's harder, I want so much to be to say I love everything about this book, but I can't. It was definitely cute and I don't hate that I read but it's definitely not one of my favorites.

What a great story this is! A little on the steamy side and a little bit of suspense wrapped up into a wonderful read that I thoroughly enjoyed! This story is about a woman named Breanne who all her life has always makes the wrong choices. Being left at the altar (THREE TIMES) she decides this final time she is giving up men, NO MORE MEN. So she uses her honeymoon to get away for a bit, ALONE in the Sierra mountains in a fully staffed lodge. That is until she stumbles upon a hottie in her shower in HER honeymoon suite who says he isn't going ANYWHERE. Meet Conner, a sexy vice cop who is burned out from the job. When he meets Breanne he thinks she's a sexy steam pot that he wants to take to bed but that's going to have to wait a bit since they have discovered a dead man in the house.....That's when the tables turn, this story kind of reminded me of the game "Clue".... Maybe that's why the title is "Get a Clue"???? HeHe.... Amazing story! Kept me reading it without stopping for sure.

What do You think about Get A Clue (2008)?

A fun read - the heroine has had the week from hell:* fancy wedding - but the groom doesn't show up* rather than face the commiseration and speculation - she flies off on her prepaid honeymoon - on an airplane with screaming, odoriferous passengers* she arrives at her Tahoe destination - but her luggage doesn't, leaving her with two scanty negligees and some makeup to face a week in the Sierras* nobody mentioned that the Sierras were being hit by the 'storm of the century' - for which she was seriously underdressed* her honeymoon suite has a naked man in the shower - when they show up the staff is spooky - the place is bitterly cold and the power is out* AND THEN she trips over the body...It's every wacky house party plot you've ever run across - from Agatha Christie to Clue - filled with quirky characters, tension, and lots of 'whodunnit'. And it has a VERY satisfactory conclusion - for all concerned!

A light quick fun read. A farce in two acts basically. Our heroine, Breanne Moreland is dumped at the alter for the third time and decides to go on the honeymoon by herself. Due to a highly unlikely series of events, she ends up trapped in a mountain lodge in a snowstorm in a room with a cop on hiatus, no clothes to wear, cut off from the world, and a dead body in the basement. Light and fun. Being a Jill Shalvis book, there is still a fair chunk of hot sex and funny lines to be had. Don't try to take it seriously or think too hard and you'll enjoy it. But expect it to make sense and you'll be disappointed.

Get a Clue by Jill Shalvis is a crazy book, with a haunted house, weird help, people disappearing, lights going off. Crazy in one word.Breanne our heroine has just been dumped at the altar for the 3rd time. Yup, she chooses the worst men ever. She is the baby of the family and has her father and four brothers wrapped around her finger, she changes jobs frequently. So, after being dumped, braving a bumpy flight, loosing her luggage, she arrives in the middle of the night to the place she was supposed to honeymoon. Her arrival is weird, no-one is there at the entrance and then she walks into a room and into the shower where a very naked Cooper is taking a shower. Cooper is our hero, he has recently quit his job as a cop and has been sent by his brother to take some time off and clear his mind. But relaxation is not what they get. What they get is fun and mayhem and a dead-body. The staff is all cagey and seems to act all weird. There are some sexy scenes and romance seems to be going on even among the staff. The book is all fun and the notes Breanne makes in her blackberry for herself are damn funny. A quick read.Rating: 3.5
