description: "Laura Black and her Scottsdale friends are back on the case and trouble is sure to follow " In this thrilling romantic mystery, Laura Black is an investigator for the highly successful but slightly shady Scottsdale lawyer, Lenny Shapiro. This time, she's tracking down a wealthy Scottsdale cougar named Jacky Wade, who's been missing for a week and her clueless boyfriend, Terry Lennox, is getting desperate. But even after Laura manages to find Jacky, it seems that the trouble is only beginning. First is the death threat. Next there's the murder. Finally there's the kidnapping. Laura's best friend Sophie and fellow investigator Gina Rondinelli help with the hunt while Laura enlists a group of man-hungry cougars to search the nightclubs of Scottsdale. Unfortunately, this all leads Laura into the arms of Carlos the Butcher, a guy with some serious anger issues. If this wasn't enough to keep her busy, Laura's next door neighbor, Grandma Peckham, is on the prowl for a new boyfriend and she's in serious need of Laura's dating advice. All of this might even be manageable if it wasn't for the fact that Laura is also trying to start a real relationship with undercover cop Jack Reno. The only problem there is that she is also having romantic thoughts about the gorgeous and dangerous crime lieutenant, Maximillian. With equal parts humor, action, and mystery, Scottsdale Squeeze is the perfect light, fast, and fun summer novel. Praise for the SCOTTSDALE SERIES "A great chick lit mystery with plenty of humor.
