Today is Owen Hunter's first day in the coastal city of Costa Buena, California. He's the new owner of Rockafellers, a vintage record store struggling to find customers. Much of that is due to Headbangers, a competitor with a better product mix and an aggressive owner. There is also a local do-gooder group who wants Owen to fall in line with their vision for a kinder, gentler Costa Buena. None of that worries Owen, though, because he is determined to be the number one used-music store on the boardwalk -- even if that means stepping on a few toes. But when a murder occurs shortly after his arrival, he's identified as prime suspect number one. Owen Hunter must clear his name fast because he can't afford to have a bunch of nosy cops poking around. For Owen is a man with a secret that he must protect at all costs. The U.S. government has invested a lot to keep him safe, but his enemies will stop at nothing to find him. Do prosperity and happiness await Owen in this coastal community?… (mehr)

Owen is trying to be a better man but he won’t let anyone hassle him either and this causes him some trouble. I mostly liked Owen and there were many humorous moments throughout the story. Light and easy to read, I would try another in this series. ( )

Cozy Up To Murder by Colin Conway
The Cozy Up Series #2

What a relaxing, fun and interesting way to spend time today! I needed a simple cozy murder mystery to take my mind away for awhile and this book provided that escape for me today.

Book one in this series introduced a character I really liked and I was happy to see what he would get up to in book two. Beau left in a hurry at the end of the first book even though he thought he might have liked the town he had been settled into through the Witness Protection program. That lasted a week and then he had to move on...it was a matter of life and death. By the end of book one he had the Mafia and Satan’s Dawgs MC on his tail and he needed a safe place to land.

So, in book two Beau has a new name, is in California running a record shop and willing to make a go of it. He has promised to keep a low profile and avoid anything that might expose him and put his life in danger. With that in mind he opens the doors of his shop, meets a number of new people, has a few interesting interactions including an altercation and begins to settle in. Beau is now Owen Hunter and the town is definitely not as inviting as the last one. He soon has a murder to solve and a number of potential murderers to check out.

What I liked:
* Beau: a big rather quiet man who does enjoy a puzzle. He wants to be a better man and is not finding the cooperation from those around him that he needs to do so
* The cat of many names...think he is growing on Beau
* Ted & Max who are in charge of keeping Beau safe
* The plot, writing and joy that I found while reading this book
* Wondering if Daphne might show up eventually as Beau is not having an easy time forgetting her
* The mystery and how it was solved
* Wondering what will happen next…

What I didn’t like:
* The only thing I didn’t like was having to say goodbye to Beau knowing I will have to wait awhile to find out what happens next.

Did I like this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series? Definitely

Thank you to the author for the ARC – This is my honest review.
