2nd in series

the 2nd book in the "Mojo" series. This one delves into Gloria, the attorney who represented Penny in the 1st book "In Deep Voodoo" Gloria has moved here from New Orleans in the WITSEC program. Enter the new Chief of Police (Zane) who was Gloria's 1st boyfriend in her previous life years ago. Trying to hide her true identity & trying not to get murdered in the eccentric little town makes for a great read full of mystery, romance, & intrigue.

Enjoyed it but need to read the first book

I liked this book and recently recommended Bond to another person. I do think you need to read the first book before reading Finding Your Mojo. It had some quirky humor in it - if you like Nancy Martin or Janet Evanovich then it may be worth your time to check out this author. Loved the purple hair.

Loads of mojo...

After her father was murdered and she and her mother were ushered into Witness Protection, Lorey has always longed to reconnect with her lost teen lover, Zane Riley. Now an adult, and answering to the name Gloria, she has just taken over a law practice in the small Louisiana town of Mojo. Imagine her shock when her law clerk suddenly dies after she handles a voodoo doll, and she is introduced to the new police chief, none other than Zane. The quirky town of Mojo is filled with folks who believe in voodoo and consult tarot cards. Gloria finds herself falling for Zane all over, particularly when she learns what drove him to pursue a career in law enforcement. When she learns that the culprit behind her father's murder is getting a new trial, it becomes imperative to bring Gloria and her mother in, but mom left WITSEC years earlier and she has no idea how to locate her. Besides, a budding romance with her first love is in full bloom. When Zane discovers her true identity, will it be the end of their new beginning? Bond has a great ability of combining humor, intrigue and romance to tell a refreshing story. This is the second in a 2-book series (In Deep Voodoo), and readers who have not read the first might be a little confused at times; since I read them out of order, I am looking forward to getting the first one. The story is fun, engaging, and has some great dialogue.

A very good mystery and hot romance

I hope Ms. Bond continues to write about the little town of Mojo. There seem to be many people around there with secrets, and this heroine had one of the hardest to live with, plus her father was dead and she had no idea where her mother was. I loved the teasing romance with Zane, and his determination to find out what her secrets were. I don't want to say too much and give away the story, but I am looking forward to a sequel, and just ordered the first one in this series, that I wish I'd read first!

Finding your Mojo

Stephanie Bond is AWESOME!! I couldnt put the book down once I started!

Mojo is one interesting place to live.

Over a dozen years ago Lorey Lawson had been a normal teenager living a normal life in Mojo, Louisiana. It all changed one night when a hitman broke into the house and killed her father in cold blood. The assassin told them that if Maggie (Lorey's mother) testified in a racketeering and money laundering case against Bernard Riaz, someone would return to finish the job. Maggie and Lorey disappeared into the WITSEC program. Gloria Dalton arrives in Mojo to open her attorney's office. The previous attorney is now deceased and Mojo is happy to receive a new lawyer in the area. Gloria meets Marie Gaston, acting as the Welcome Wagon, and hardly has time to say a thank you before a vehicle comes crashing through the glass window. Gloria is shaken when she learns that her new paralegal, Steven Chasen, died en route to the hospital. She is more unnerved to find that the new police chief is Zane Riley, the boyfriend she had when she had to disappear all those years ago. Zane changed during Gloria's time away. Zane has hardened to the world and deals only with facts. Gloria shows him a voodoo doll that had arrived earlier, dressed just like Steven, but Zane blows it off since he does not believe in voodoo. But more dolls appear, followed by dead bodies, and Gloria seems to always be around when someone dies. Zane believes Gloria a suspect, no matter how attracted he is to her. Gloria believes that Riaz's thugs have found her again. **** Author Stephanie Bond takes her readers back to Mojo, Louisiana, for another visit with the colorful locals. Mystery, romance, comedy, and a bit of suspense blends together to create a delightful story that will chase boredom out of your life, at least temporarily. **** Reviewed by Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews.
