Publisher Description
It’s definitely curtains for May’s client. He’s exited Stage Left for the last time.
May Ferth just wants to do a good job in her role as fake girlfriend. But there are strange goings on at the funeral. Shifty characters whispering secrets in shadowed corners, and a truly yummy advocate for the dead guy implying that May might have had something to do with his friend’s unscripted exit.
May might be a thirty-three-year-old ex-community theater actress on her second career, but she comes from a family of cops. And, despite her talent for acting, she has a lot more Detective in her than Diva.
The villain thinks he can threaten her and she’ll fold like last week’s panned play. Clearly, he hasn’t read the day’s script changes. May and her little dog Shakespeare are on the case. Though, they might take a little direction from the Private Investigator who believes that May’s client was murdered, and fully intends to prove it.
Customer Reviews
That was just so much fun
This is the first I’ve read from this author, but it’s certainly not going to be the last. That book was just so much fun. A twisty mystery filled with shiny red herrings that kept leading me astray. Vibrant characters, chock full of personality – even Shakespeare. All that is wrapped up in a funny will-they/won’t-they rom-com vibe worthy of classic Moonlighting episodes. I realize that this book is currently a stand alone, but I loved these characters so much that I hope I get the chance to read more about them in the future.

Original, funny, kept me guessing
This is my first book by this author and I look forward to reading more. May is smart, funny, has a most unusual job, an adorable dog, and a family who are cops. The mystery kept me guessing to the end as there were plenty of suspects, red herrings and plot twists. I kept waffling between not trusting Eddie, the P.I. and wanting him and May to get together romantically. It had me laughing in places and tensing up in others. Please, please make this into a series!
