About the Book



"Plum Lockhart went out on a limb when she ditched her corporate job in NYC and moved to the Caribbean island of Paraiso. Now the head of her own villa broker agency, Plum finds herself going head-to-head with her former boss and his evil (and annoyingly handsome) deputy Damian. But when an old colleague asks her to connect with his snarky assistant Arielle, the sweet life turns sour-Arielle is soon found dead at the house of an eccentric tycoon, Dieter Friederich. Known for his collection of exotic pets and success in the acid-washed jeans market, Plum learns through the grapevine that the mulleted millionaire is involved with some shady dealings. But he's not the only bad apple on the island... Plum will have to fit in an investigation with Juan Kevin Munoz, the steamy Director of Security, into her jam-packed schedule. But there's a murderer hot on their heels, and Plum will have to crack the case juiced in time!"--



Book Synopsis



Nothing ruins an ocean view like a body on the beach!

Plum Lockhart went out on a limb when she ditched her corporate job in New York City and moved to the Caribbean island of Paraiso. Now the head of her own villa broker agency, Plum spends her days chasing down clients and lounging on white sand beaches.

But the sweet life turns sour when a publishing heiress is found dead at the mansion of an eccentric tycoon, Dieter Friedrich. Even worse, Plum's old colleague cashes in a favor and asks her to investigate. It looks like she'll need to fit a murder case into her already jam-packed schedule!

Friedrich is known for his shady dealings, but he's not the only bad apple on the island--Plum will have to contend with a scheming millionaire, a sleazy rockstar, and devious B-list celebrities. And joining Plum once again is Juan Kevin Munoz, the distractingly gorgeous Director of Security. Despite the sparks between them, they'll need to stay focused on the case--there's a murderer hot on their heels!

New York transplant Plum Lockhart is beginning to get some traction for her new villa brokerage agency on the Caribbean Island of Paraiso. However, trouble comes knocking in the form of her former colleague Gerald who insists Plum go help out his boss’s daughter who is being held by the resort’s security. Plum regrets getting involved when Arielle is found murdered the next morning. Now Gerald is insisting that Plum help him solve the crime, and he’s shown up in person. Will Plum solve the case before her patience with Gerald runs out? I struggled a bit with the first book in the series, but I’m glad I gave the series a second chance. Plum was a much better, more relatable character. Gerald still annoyed me, but the rest of the cast were fun and did a good job of keeping me guessing. The mystery was strong. A couple things seemed a little rushed, but overall it was good and reached a logical solution. Reading this book made me want to hop a plane for a tropical resort. I’ll definitely book time for the final entry in the series.
