Chrissy McMullen has made a career leap, all the way from slinging drinks at Chicago's most notorious nightclub to dispensing psychotherapy from her sleek new practice in L.A. Even if she can't quite shed her too-loud, too-curvy alter ego--or the brawling family that insists on claiming kinship. So when her most famous client, buff football star "Bomber" Bomstad, starts chasing her around her desk and getting, well ... unzipped ... Christina gets just a little miffed--until Bomber has the bad manners to drop dead at her feet. Enter Jack Rivera, a no-nonsense detective with a grim attitude and a great butt, who's determined to prove this cocktail-waitress-turned-shrink was engaging in some very unethical behavior. Persuading Rivera that she's not a murderer isn't going to be easy. Plunging headfirst into a city full of people in need of some serious therapy, Chrissy will have to use all her street smarts, a good deal of sex appeal, and a little love to clear her name--and cancel an appointment with a killer.… (meer)

2.75 stars, at best. Chrissie McMullen is a L.A. psychologist, and becomes the prime suspect of Lieutenant Rivera when her high profile client, football star “Bomber” Bomstad drops dead of a heart attack chasing her around her office, unzipped. So Chrissie decides she has to clear her name. Some zany characters, but nowhere near as fun as Stephanie Plum. Not sure I'll read another in this series.

Fun to read, this is not credible as a mystery with all of the visible detection being done by the psychologist in whose office the victim died. The McMullen family may only be represented by Christina, but their pungent comments that preface each chapter are quite the highlights of the book. ( )

Loved this book enou to go out and immediately order all the rest in the series. Comparisons to Syephanie Plum are misplaced in my opinion. The main character is witty and funny, but there was none of the slapstick you find in the Plum novels. Indeed there are a few very serious scenes throughout the book that make it hard to fit this book into a cozy category. Definitely a great find. ( )

I really enjoyed this book, Chrissy McMullen is comfortable in her own skin and even though she's a certified psychologist, readily admits to being not that great of an authority when it comes to personal relationships with members of the opposite sex (for instance, her former BF Eddie Friar).

Chrissy reluctantly becomes involved in trying to solve the murder of one her patients, since she was accused of his murder. I've read reviews of this book and have seen that some have compared Chrissy to Stephanie Plum and I fail to see the similarities. Yes Chrissy is trying to clear her name, but again, she's a psychologist, not employed in any way, shape or form in the law enforcement field.

I thought this was funny, I liked the banter between Chrissy and Rivera; I wasn't prepared for who the killer was, so that was a good twist. I'm already looking forward to reading the next book in the series. ( )

Not so much into mystery anymore, but recall reading another by her and enjoying it. A very fun read, likable heroine, worth picking up. ( )
