A WRENCH IN THE WORKS
Book 6 in the Fixer-Upper Mysteries
Shannon Hammer's younger sister Chloe left Lighthouse Cove after high school to make it big in Hollywood. And she did it! For several years now, Chloe has been the co-host of a popular home repair show on the Do-It-Yourself Network. Now, after ten years, Chloe returns to Lighthouse Cove with her crew and co-host to film several shows featuring her sister Shannon, along with some special mini-segments on Victorian style and design.
But Shannon realizes quickly that things are not exactly blissful in TV land. Her sister's handsome co-host is being stalked by someone who turns out to be his estranged wife, Erica--who also happens to be the executive producer of the show. Erica's got a knack for stirring up sticky situations and when she's found dead, Chloe and the entire crew are under suspicion.
Shannon soon discovers the real reason why Chloe was so eager to move away from Lighthouse Cove all those years ago. Can Shannon figure out if that ten-year-old secret is connected to Erica's death? And can she track down the real killer before her beloved sister becomes the next victim?

MY REVIEW
This
sixth book in the Fixer-Upper Mysteries is a wonderful installment to the
series. Up to author Kate Carlisle’s expected writing standards, A WRENCH IN
THE WORKS was a well written story, with an intriguing mystery.
It
was good being back in Lighthouse Cove with Shannon Hammer and the rest of the
cast of characters. It’s been interesting watching the characters’ growth as
Ms. Carlisle has fleshed them out.
A
whodunit that kept me on my toes, A WRENCH IN THE WORKS flowed at a steady
pace, building to a reveal that I wasn’t expecting. Fans of the series are
going to mark this as one of their favorites.
If you haven’t read the series but have been
wanting to check it out, the author did a great job of giving this story a
stand alone feel.
GOOD LUCK!
As always, please leave a comment and
Thanks, Lisa. Happy Saturday!

DeleteHi Lisa! I enjoyed your review. I've watched the Fixer Upper Mysteries on the Hallmark Channel but haven't read any of the books yet. I think I'll have to start ~
ReplyDeleteI hope you will, Celia. :) If you enjoyed the movies, I think you'll love the books, as well. You can read chapter 1 of each of my books for free at KateCarlisle.com.
DeleteI love the movies and I'm sure I'll love the books, too.
ReplyDeleteI love this series and was so excited to get an ARC via NetGalley. You hit is on the head once again. I have wondered about her sister and loved their relationship. I hope the team up permanently.
