ABOUT THE BOOK
With one solved case under her belt, PJ Sugar is ready to dive into her career as a private investigator. Or at least a PI’s assistant until she can prove herself to Jeremy Kane, her new boss. Suddenly PJ’s seeing crime everywhere. But is it just in her head, or can she trust her instincts? When she takes on her first official case-house-sitting for a witness in protective custody-Jeremy assures her there’s no danger involved. But it soon becomes clear that there is someone after the witness . . . and now they’re after PJ, too.
MY THOUGHTS
Double Trouble is a great continuation of the PJ Sugar series. The first book, Nothing But Trouble, introduced us to PJ and her eccentricities and insecurities. She encountered her high school sweetheart, managed Russian house guests, and took care of her 4-year-old nephew. In the end, her super sleuthing skills earned her a position as a private

MY THOUGHTS
It’s no secret that I enjoy reading Deeanne Gist’s novels. Her typical genre is historical fiction (one of my favs) and her writing is considered “edgy” (in reality, it’s just true to life, not sugarcoated). So, when CFBA offered a new Deeanne Gist book
