THIS WEEK’S RANDOM QUESTION: Name a favorite book you’d take to the beach.

When you read this, I'll be walking through Central Park. We opted for a quick overnight to NYC before school gets underway.

Right now I'm reading, Iced Chiffon by Duffy Brown. This is the first in her Consignment Shop Mystery series. I'm loving it.




Reagan's messy divorce has left her with nothing but a run-down Victorian and a bunch of designer clothes. Strapped for cash, Reagan makes use of the two things she has left, turning the first floor of her home into a consignment shop and filling it with the remnants of her rich-wife wardrobe.

Thanks to his cunning lawyer, Walker Boone, her ex got everything else, including the Lexus--not to mention a young blonde cupcake. When Reagan finds the blonde dead in the Lexus, she's determined to beat Boone to finding the murderer. As it turns out, the gossip fiends flooding Reagan's shop can give her a lot more than just their unwanted clothes--they have information more precious than a vintage Louis Vuitton...

Next up is this book:


Looks like it is part of a series. I'm blessed not to have this concern, but I'm sure there are a lot of women out there who do. I wanted to see what the author had to say on the subject.

Hope you have a great week.

Thanks tons for picking up Iced Chiffon!! That you’re having fun with Reagan, Auntie KiKi and the Savannah gang sure makes my day. I’m working on the 6th on the series, Lethal in Old Lace. Have a terrific week. Hugs, Duffy
