Customer Reviews

A really enjoyable read!

This book was just, plain fun to read. It was as much a light-hearted who-done-it as a contemporary romance. Ms. Michael's wit and humor shine through her characters, and kept me smiling. It might be useful to read the first book in the series, "Dial M for Mischief", first, as the stories of the three sisters all go together.

Mischief Becomes Her

Kasey Michaels' second installment, Mischief Becomes Her is as good or better than the first book, M is for Mischief. The Sunshine Sisters characters and their husbands and/or boyfriends are very entertaining. I can't wait for the third installment, Mischief 24/7! The books are funny, tender and exciting. I'm looking forward to more adventures and hope they can solve the final cases that their Dad was working on before he was killed. Don't worry I didn't give anything away, they tell you on the book jacket that their Dad was killed. I highly recommend these books! Marge McC.

Book 2 in the Sunshine girls series is a major hit

"Mischief becomes her" is book 2 in the Sunshine girls series by the great Kasey Michaels. This book continues where book 1 ended (so yes, you should read "Dial M for Mischief" definitely befor starting this one), Jolie and Sam are back together and the Sunshine girls are still fighting to clear their father's (Teddy) name. 3 more cold cases are left to solve and the girls are hoping to find the murderer of their father by doing it. Book 2 concetrates on Jessica Sunshine and Matt Denby, who started fighting which each other right from the first moment they met each other. Jessica, a hot shot reporter, is willing to use every way to clear her dead fathers name. Matt, a homicide detective, is one of the few (outside the family) who believes that there is more to the story of Teddys apparent suicide and is willing to help the Sunshine family in his free time to solve the mystery. But he is not ok with the ways Jessica is going to solve the cases (posing like a prostitute, giving out private numbers over TV) and because they are attracted by each other (clearly against their wills) it's an ongoing fight between these two about who's right and who's having the upper hand. The cases they are working on are really gripping and during the investigation they discover that the cases are associated with each other and that there are many dead ends they have to deal with. But at least they are able to solve the "Fishstrangler case". Matt and Jessica are a great pair, they complete each other and although Matt is unsure if they have a future together because he is 11 years older and his first marriage ended in tragedy they don't give up when they realize that they have a chance for a happy end. I can really recommend this book to all romance fans, it's funny, it's intense and the love stories are great. "Mischief becomes her" is a great second book in the Sunshine girls series and definitly makes me crave for "Mieschief 24/7" (with Jade and Court in the focus) which is published in April 2009. So go and get yourself a copy and enjoy. S.M.

terrific middle caper

Former Philadelphia cop turned private investigator Teddy Sunshine is found dead stunning his three adult children, Jolie, Jade and Jessica. However, even more shocking the police say he killed himself and murdered the wife of mayoral candidate Joshua Brainard. None of the three Sunshine sisters believe their father would commit suicide or a homicide; they agree to solve his cases because they feel one of them led to two murders. Meanwhile TV reporter Jessica teams up with homicide detective Matt Denby who cannot believe his former mentor would commit a murder-suicide. As they fall in love their inquiry spin them into meeting the Beckets and a cursed emerald the Empress The second Sunshine Girls romantic suspense (see DIAL M FOR MISCHIEF) is a terrific tale that attempts to bring the Michaels recent mythos into one universe with an apparent link to the Beckets of Romney Marsh regency fame. The story line is fast-paced and filled with intelligent often amusing bantering between the reporter and the cop. Although somewhat overloaded with dangling threads (the climax will be a packed gem), fans will appreciate the enjoyable middle caper. Harriet Klausner
