Today for the series post, I’m coming back to a series I mentioned on my book from in the Thanksgiving books post back in November, but now I’ve read the whole lot so it’s time to talk in more depth!
Our heroine is Tj, a high school teacher and sports coach in Paradise Nevada, who lives on her family’s resort with her two much younger half sisters. Their mum is dead and Tj has taken over as their parental figure. As with most of these series, Tj has a love interest and a solid group of secondary characters around her to keep things interesting and provide her with sidekicks for her sleuthing. Despite the fact that someone dies in every book, Paradise seems like a pretty nice place to live, and Tj herself is a fun, not too stupid to live heroine, even though she’s quite young in the grand scheme of things.
There are ten books in the series and they move through the seasons with the resort – so there are summer and winter weather books as well as books around the various seasonal festivals (Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas) so it doesn’t seem to much like there are bodies falling out of every corner at Tj and her friends. I found these incredibly easy to read – I started reading them via NetGalley when Henery Press had their books on there and were going through a pretty reliable period. And since then I’ve been able to pick off the rest of them either via Kindle Unlimited or as a bargain deal and the good news is that they’re all in KU at the moment. So if you fancy a solid murder mystery that’s not too gory, these are a pretty good way to pass a couple of hours. Kathi Daley has written a couple of other series – but I haven’t had a chance to read any of them yet, but they are on the list!
Have a great weekend everyone!
