Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. 4.5 stars- It all started with a bank robbery, a dead jeweler, and a sniper. Sounds like a lot right ? No, not for Bobbie Faye that is a slow morning, easy breezy. I enjoy the heck out of her. This girl is like two tornados dancing during a hurricane. She get's shot at, hit, kidnapped *a lot*, accused of crimes, turned blue and she still get's up and kicks the butt that needs it. Can she handle weapons, heck yeah, she can throw a knife and shoot better then most. She has skills, stands by her family, loves a good chili dog, and a sense of humor. What's not to love about her ? She goes in my top ten women characters I enjoy following. Let's talk men, yes, there is a triangle of love. One damaged semi lost love (Cam)and one fresh, new, untested love (Trevor). Both men are sexy, tall, macho, men of service who spend time measuring each other up but not at the cost of Bobbie Faye, she comes first to both of them. Nice to see in a book right ? Cam is a hard core follow the rules kind of guy, which cost him the girl. Trevor is a break the rules, smash them, fix them to make them fit kind of guy. Both are such great guys it's hard to be on one team, but I lean towards Trevor. Why ? Cam lacked the communication gene when he needed it. That's all I got. So the tale here has Bobbie Faye being accused of heinous crimes. Then she is kidnapped, told to find something, not to find something, to find something. it's a cluster of fun. Wait somebody is shooting at her, they want her dead. Trevor is watching from the shadows, undercover his part becomes very involved. He covertly sneaks in little touches, whispers and protects her. Cam, is on the side of the law, she look guilty, there is proof that she is. Meanwhile, things are burring, blowing up, ugly truths are being uncovered. Bobbie Faye learns how much her friends and family believe in her. She also faces a love that may be the one. Impossible unending action, intrigue, backstabbing, voodoo, steamy satisfying mattress dancing, hot hunky men, nasty baddies- it has it all. I'm off to order the next book I like the Bobbie Faye series, even though it's got some drawbacks. I think Contraband Queen bit is a little overplayed, and the friend with the magic shop's storyline is usually something I skim over, but for the most part, these books are great. They're funny; they've got competing drool-worthy guys & wacky best friends with access to whips; and Bobbie Faye herself who can't seem to catch a break and wades into bad luck like it's the local swimming hole. Her adventures are fast paced and extreme, and they make me chuckle, so I'll catch up with the next book when I see it at the bookstore, for sure. this is a very fun series. I little far fetched in moments, but even then, it's just crazy fun, you buy into it a little. I read this months ago, and like some other books I forget to check it off my list. Well worth your time to explore this series, if your not coming into it with high brow standards. Bobbie Faye is back and if she wasn't having a bad hair day, it just wouldn't be Louisiana, now would it? Against her better judgment - well, it's family after all - Bobbie Faye's agreed to help her cousin Francesca. A bad case of mistaken identity, the mob, a gun-running ex-boyfriend and Bobie Faye's usual luck is in - for the reader, that is. Enjoy! keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Bobbie Faye Sumrall just landed in a mess of trouble. It started when she agreed to help her diva cousin, Francesca. Turns out Francesca's mom, Marie, swiped a fortune in gems from Bobbie Faye's uncle, who'd swiped them from someone else. Now there's a hit out on Marie, and Bobbie Faye is racing to find her--and the jewels. Plenty of people would shoot Bobbie Faye for a stash of diamonds. Hell, some would pay for the privilege. But now Bobbie Faye has other distractions, including: Trevor, the drop-dead-sexy FBI agent who may or may not be the real deal; and Cam, her steamy (and steamed) detective ex-boyfriend who'd do anything to keep Bobbie Faye out of harm's way...and get her back into his arms.

Girls Just Wanna Have Guns is another wild ride with Bobbie Faye. The story is over-the-top ridiculous, which just adds to the humor and fun. Text messages inhabit several pages that help keep the reader on track, but it is the case notes at the beginning of some of the chapters with information written in the margins that provide some of the funniest moments in this book. While there are multiple character perspectives, Bobbie Faye's and Cam's are the most prevalent, and Trevor's is still mostly unexplored. Overall, Girls Just Wanna Have Guns is extremely entertaining, leaving this reader excited to read the third and final book of the series. ( )
