My Killer Vacation

Today's post is on My Killer Vacation by Tessa Bailey. It is 290 pages long. The cover is green and pink with the couple embracing in the center and the title above dripping blood. The intended reader is someone who likes rom-com's with a little murder. There is some foul language, sex, and mild violence in this book. The story is told from duel perspectives of Taylor and Myles. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the book- It was supposed to be a relaxing vacation in sweet, sunny Cape Cod—just me and my beloved brother—but discovering a corpse in our rental house really throws a wrench into our tanning schedule. Now a rude, crude bounty hunter has arrived on the back of his motorcycle to catch the killer and refuses to believe I can be helpful, despite countless hours of true crime podcast listening. Not to mention a fulfilling teaching career of wrangling second graders.
A brash bounty hunter and an energetic elementary schoolteacher: the murder-solving team no one asked for, but thanks to these pesky attempts on my life, we're stuck together, come hell or high tide.
I'm just here to do a job, not babysit an amateur sleuth. Although… it is becoming less and less of a hardship to have her around. Sure, she's stubborn, distracting and can't stay out of harm's way. She's also brave and beautiful and reminds me of the home I left behind three years ago. In other words, the painful hunger and protectiveness she is waking up in me is a threat to my peace of mind. Before I sink any deeper into this dangerous attraction, I need to solve this murder and get back on the road. But will fate take her from me before I realize the road has been leading to her all along?

Review- A cute romance about opposite attracts. Taylor wants to have some fun and break out of her every day life. Myles just wants to forget the past and solve the case. But together they have something more. The plot is not unique but it's fun and the sex scenes are not too many for those who would like to skip them. The characters are fun, cute, and drive the story nicely. I like the relationships with the family members like their brothers. If you like cute romances with a mystery twist, then you should try this book. 

I give this book a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I borrowed this book from my local library.
