I'm not really a private detective. I just play one on TV. Joey Darling, better known to the world as Raven Remington, detective extraordinaire, is trying to separate herself from her invincible alter ego. She played the spunky character for five years on the hit TV show Relentless, which catapulted her to fame and into the role of Hollywood's sweetheart. When her marriage falls apart, her finances dwindle to nothing, and her father disappears, Joey finds herself on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, trying to piece her life back together away from the limelight. A woman finds Raven--er, Joey--and insists on hiring her fictional counterpart to find a missing boyfriend. When someone begins staging crime scenes to match an episode of Relentless, Joey has no choice but to get involved. Joey's bumbling sleuthing abilities have her butting heads with Detective Jackson Sullivan and kindling sparks with thrill-seeking neighbor Zane Oakley. Can Joey channel her inner Raven and unearth whodunit before she ends up totally done in? And where is her father anyway? Can she handle fame or is disappearing into obscurity the wiser option? Get Ready To Fumble your way through this enchanting new series...… (meer)

A wonderful mystery book! No cussing and no sex. Just a clean book. I will be getting the rest of the series.

Joey was rocketed to stardom at 20. Hollywood and naïve young girl became disastrous. Her hit tv show was canceled after a personal disaster. Her husband is selling stories about her to the press. On the other side of the country, her father has disappeared. Joey leaves the West Coast, just a few days in her new surrounding and trouble finds Joey. ( )

Well, the opening blurb line isn't really true. Joey Darling hasn't worked as a PI but she did get a PI license in California as part of research for her TV role as Raven Remington.

Joey moves to the Outer Banks area to try to find out what's happened to her father. Lily recognizes her and convinces her to take on an investigative case to find out what happened to Lily's boyfriend, Simon. Joey has financial woes and could use the money so she takes the assignment, not realizing what she's getting into.

There's a bit of a love triangle between Joey and next-door-neighbor (surfer dude and licensed massage therapist), Zane Oakley, and police detective Jackson Sullivan. I hope it's not one that lingers on book after book after book like some series let it do. ( )

How can you not love a bumbling starlet, often mistaken for her tv character, who in real life, only wants to find her missing father? Poor Joey Darling, aka Raven Remington, stumbles into a mystery when a fan asks her to find a missing person.

Just plain fun(and funny) to read, it is so easy to sympathize with Joey. She may not know what she's doing, but she truly cares about people,and she can fake the know-how. Barritt makes the story especially interesting by creating a possible love interest triangle. Who will Joey choose? I imagine we will get several books into the series before we find out!

Faith, humor, romance, all contained in a cozy. It doesn't get any better that one penned by Christy Barritt. I highly recommend this series!! ( )
