Contributor(s):Author: Linda LovelyOnce you start reading Bones to Pick, you won't be able to put it down.
Between the four-legged farmyard shenanigans, the two men vying for Brie Hooker's favor, the formidable task of proving her aunt's innocence, plus the villain's attempts to end her life, this book is a thrill-a-minute read.
- Cindy Sample, National Bestselling Author of Dying for a Donut Living on a farm with four hundred goats and a cantankerous carnivore isn't among vegan chef Brie Hooker's list of lifetime ambitions.
But she can't walk away from her Aunt Eva, who needs help operating her dairy.
Once she calls her aunt's goat farm home, grisly discoveries offer ample inducements for Brie to employ her entire vocabulary of cheese-and-meat curses.
The troubles begin when the farm's pot-bellied pig unearths the skull of Eva's husband, who disappeared years back.
The sheriff, kin to the deceased, sets out to pin the murder on Eva.
He doesn't reckon on Brie's resolve to prove her aunt's innocence.
Death threats, ruinous pedicures, psychic shenanigans, and biker bar fisticuffs won't stop Brie from unmasking the killer, even when romantic befuddlement throws her a curve.
Bones to Pick grabbed me at chapter one and refused to let go until the very last page.
I want to spend more time hanging out with Brie Hooker and all her quirky family and friends.
Linda Lovely offers up a charming setting that's so real you can almost smell the hay, a story that's laugh-out-loud funny, and a mystery that will keep you up past your bedtime.
- Annette Dashofy, USA Today Bestselling Author of Uneasy PreyHow vegan Brie Hooker balances cheese loving carnivores, more than one romantic interest, and murder in Linda Lovely's Bones to Pick is a humorous delight.
A well-crafted series debut.
