Entertaining and fast read. It does make you want to read the next book to find out what happens in the series. I took off one star for some of the typical mystery book things you find and some of the craziness. Plus the whole "will they, won't they" side plot. But it all worked and I enjoyed reading it so I can't fault it too much.Tags : Lethal Bayou Beauty (A Miss Fortune Mystery, Book 2) - Kindle edition by Jana DeLeon.

I love this book not only can Fortune take care of Ida Belle, Gertie and herself but she can help Carter catch the killer. The hardest part for her, though, seems to be sticking to her cover story. She works to figure out who killed the hometown girl she's been accused of before the whole town railroads her to prison and Carter out of a job. Now forming her own rivalries and showing her individual level of being out of touch with normal life, Fortune must navigate the small town of Sinful once again. She and the women must work around the system and discover the truth while evading Carter and the even greater threat, ha ha, of the ancient Robert E. Lee and his horse. While trying to stay out of public accusation and keep mobs from coming after her. The plot is so good I couldn't put it down. It is hysterical I laughed so hard so many times, I lost count. The mystery was very well plotted that every avenue pursue and red herring baited, you believe each with equal vigor. It kept me guessing throughout. Everyone should read this series it is so funny and the mystery so titillating, it is definitely worth reading.
Now this author gets humor and over the hill misfortunes. This series has me hooked. I find the characters enchanting and full of mischief. I really enjoyed laughing and devouring every page of book one and two. Looking forward to giggling my way through the next one to. With only a few mistaken words and errors that would have been very distracting if I had not been so overly tickled at the capers the gals we're getting themselves into. Overall this was time well spent although the dog did not find my chuckles as funny after waking her out of a perfectly good nights sleep.
Jana honey please get yourself a better editor or proofreader, cause girl you need one... BAD! Heck I'll offer my services free of charge that's how much I appreciate your efforts in writing and enjoy your charming style. You can be Southern and speak and (write) the language but you need to deliver it without all these errors. You do a great job at every aspect of writing but you definitely need a better professional helper. I'd be glad to help. Keep up the good work.
If you need or are ready for a light humorous mystery novel, this series may be for you. It is the second in the Miss Fortune mystery series. Fortune is a undercover agent for the CIA who now has a contract out on her by an arms dealer. Her bosses move her to a small town in Louisiana of 300 where she is suppose to be a librarian and ex-beauty pageant contestant. They tell her to keep a low profile.
The undercover isn't going well at all. She has been there for several weeks and has been involved in solving several murders with two 70 plus year old women who were undercover during the Viet Nam War area. They are the bane of the local sheriff who tries to keep them out of the investigations. There are many hi-jinks that don't always go well but they are very good at lying to the sheriff. He knows it.
It was a fun fast humorous relaxing read.
I started this series with book 1 and am now on book 5. I think there are 9 in the series so far. I think it is a really fun read, although I think there are some historical inaccuracies. I can find no reference anywhere to women who served in Vietnam in the capacities that Ida Belle, Gertie, and Marge are supposed to have done. I also find it ironic (as a librarian myself) that the CIA assasin, Fortune, seems totally clueless about pop culture and being "girlie". I would expect a top notch assassin to be able to know about most any pop culture and to adapt herself to a role of femme fatale as needed. Other than those little criticisms, I find the storylines fun, the writing full of humor (I laugh out lout at times), an the Swamp Team 3 ladies are just a hoot! This is my kind of book - interesting, fun, and not at all heavy reading! I look forward to further adventures of Fortune, Gertie, and Ida Belle, but hope that Fortune can bring Amy and Carter on board with her "real" life sooner than later!
My second book to read from Jana Deleon. She remains consistent with her knowledge of South Louisiana (I lived there for 8 years) and keeps her characters "in character". I think this book was even funnier than the first Miss Fortune Mystery, and am thinking that someone in Hollywood should start looking for a screenplay. What a great and funny movie this would make - a cast with strong women, southern manners and a great plot line loaded with humor. I can almost see Shirley Maclaine as Ida Bell.
Ms. Deleon does a good job of bringing everyone up to speed as to what happened in the 1st book in the series. I suspect these books are just going to get better.
p.s. The editing was also better than the first...a lot less grammatical errors!
Jana, never disappoints. Another excellent book written with a host of characters that you cannot wait to visit again and again. This time I did not see the ending coming, though at one point I wonder about past affairs and blackmail. But it seemed all in my head in trying to figure out the story. I felt like I was in Sinful with the ladies, felt the twist and turns as they happened, was cheering and laughing as these Ida Belle and Gertie past there prime bumbled along but with such accuracy got things done right in the end. I love this writer and how she weaves a story. Loved how the book ended on such a high, 4 AM and I am just smiling!
I love her books much better than some so-called writers. I hate it when I finished her books, because I know it will be at least another year between books. This is the old fashioned type of mystery, no porn to fill the pages.
Entertaining and fast read. It does make you want to read the next book to find out what happens in the series. I took off one star for some of the typical mystery book things you find and some of the craziness. Plus the whole "will they, won't they" side plot. But it all worked and I enjoyed reading it so I can't fault it too much.
