Review of Twice As Bad by Joanne Jaytanie

For private investigator River Nightingale, the stakes are high, and her losses are twice as bad.

River has already lost a partner to a better job, and now a truck has mowed down another partner and a key informant. Her surviving crew is reeling and dead set on finding the killer. Working with them is a Seattle PD homicide detective, Gage Hamlin. Gage and River have been a volatile combination since day one, but now it’s twice as tense, as they both seek the killer and Gage struggles to keep River alive.

On the waterfront, Seattle is known for slinging fish, but River’s stakeout of a seafood plant reveals that fish aren’t the only thing being sold on the docks. And if River isn’t careful, fish aren’t the only thing that will end up dead on the docks.

Looming dangers lurk closer with every clue River uncovers. River’s business, her relationship, her friends, and her life are all in jeopardy. And the cost of solving the case is at least twice as bad as usual.

MY REVIEW:

SINCE I READ THE FIRST BOOK IN THIS SERIES, I HAD TO PICKUP THE NEXT BOOK.  THE AUTHOR DID NOT DISAPPOINT.  I REALLY ENJOY THIS SERIES.  THE AUTHOR, JOANNE JAYTANIE DOES AN EXCELLENT JOB WITH HER STORIES AND CHARACTERS.  THEY ARE SO BELIEVABLE AND REAL AND VERY EMOTIONAL.  RIVER IS A VERY STRONG CHARACTER WHO WILL NOT LET NOTHING STOP HER.  IN HER CURRENT CASE, SHE IS OUT TO SOLVE THE MURDER OF ONE OF HER OWN AND AN INFORMANT.  I FELT THIS WAS A VERY EMOTIONAL CASE FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED INCLUDING GAGE.  IT WAS MORE PERSONAL BECAUSE THEY LOST SOMEONE WHO THEY WERE CLOSE TO.  I LOVE GAGE AND RIVER'S CONNECTION.  THEY ARE SO CLOSE AND SO MUCH IN LOVE THAT THEIR PASSION STEAMS UP THE PAGES.  I LOVED RIVER AND GAGE'S CONSTANT BICKERING AND FIGHTING.  GAGE IS DOING EVERYTHING HE CAN TO KEEP RIVER ALIVE.  WILL RIVER AND GAGE SOLVE THE MURDER BEFORE ITS TOO LATE?

TWICE AS BAD IS A MUST READ.  IT HAS EVERYTHING A GOOD BOOK SHOULD HAVE.  IT HAS SUSPENSE, MURDER, MYSTERY, ACTION, LOVE AND EVEN PASSION.  THE AUTHOR KEEPS YOU GUESSING WHO DONE IT UNTIL THE VERY END.  THIS SERIES IS A DEFINITELY A PAGE TURNER AND YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.  I RECOMMEND YOU READ THE WHOLE SERIES IN ORDER.  YOU WILL ENJOY ALL THE BOOKS AS WELL AS THE AUTHOR'S WRITING.  I CAN'T WAIT TO READ THE NEXT BOOK IN THE SERIES.  JOANNE JAYTANIE IS A MUST READ AUTHOR FOR ME AND ONE OF MY FAVORITES.  SHE NEVER DISAPPOINTS.  5 STARS.
