Review: More Mojo!

Mojo and it's quirky residents are back in this second book that also introduces two newcomers; Gloria and Zane. Gloria was in the first book, but she was living in New Orleans. Now relocated to Mojo, she's the new town attorney. Zane is the new police chief. And they have history! I liked this book even more than the first. I think this is partly because we get to learn more about the secondary characters from the first book and partly because I just liked Gloria more than Penny. There is very little Penny and B.J. in this book, but I don't think there was much more to say about them anyway.Much like Penny, Gloria did some pretty foolish things that made me wonder if she was trying to get herself killed. She had all these years of witness protection training that seemed to melt away when she saw Zane again and she couldn't seem to make rational decisions for the sake of her own safety. This was a great follow up though with more mystery, humor, romance and a cool black cat. In the end, I just wish more had been explained about the voodoo dolls and the mystery that was Mona Black. I didn't feel I got good closure on either of those things. Maybe it is just me. As I said in my review of the first book, wish there was a third! These were my favorites from Stephanie Bond so far and I will read more of her books.
