Murder in Waiting by Lynn Cahoon
3.0

Between 2 and 3 stars. I don’t know what it is exactly that I liked less about this one than earlier books in the series, but it just didn’t feel like it reached its full potential. Too much relationship-y stuff went on and while I like to see characters progress, Jill gets on my nerves. First she has a meltdown a few books ago about Greg moving in and now she’s having meltdowns about marrying him and they haven’t even discussed it that seriously? Get over it. Just not a fan of the ass-dragging and moaning about it, I guess. It’s not romantic and Jill frequently comes across as a wishy-washy co-dependent damsel in distress and no one around her calls her out on it, relying on passive-aggressive comments to get her more wishy-washy.

As for the plot, it could’ve been much more intriguing than it ended up being, buried in Jill's relationship crap. By the end of it, I was left wondering what happened to this series? Has it jumped the shark?
