Dating Is Murder

Dating Reality TV and A Missing Friend

Wollie Shelley creates greeting card sayings, but she¿s also an artist. Currently she¿s painting a mural for friends while they are on their honeymoon. Her friends talk her into being a game show contestant on the reality TV show Biological Clock. The three female contestants each date the three male contestants. The audience will vote on which couple would make the best parents, but the winners do not have to have a baby. Wollie¿s friend Annika, who also helped out behind the scenes at Biological Clock, has vanished, and Wollie is convinced she¿s in danger. Annika¿s mother calls from overseas, and Wollie decides to help. She begins interviewing the family Annika was an Au Pair for. The police don¿t take her disappearance seriously. The detective seems interested in Wollie, not Annika¿s disappearance. Wollie finds herself being stalked by various characters. She ends up in the middle of an FBI investigation. As she continues to investigate to find Annika, she finds herself getting deeper and deeper in danger. Will she be able to find Annika without putting herself in grave danger? Is someone on the show connected to Annika¿s disappearance? Can she finish out the show? I really like Wollie. She is so much fun. She gets herself into many interesting situations, and it¿s always fun seeing how she¿ll get out. Her friends are great as well. I like the setting of LA for these novels. I really adds character to the story. This is a fun chick lit, cozy mystery and I highly recommend it. Be aware. You won¿t be able to put it down as you¿ll want to know what happens to Wollie next.

Chick lit meets amateur sleuth

Because of her friends and the lack of income from her Good Golly Miss Wollies greeting card artistry, Wollstonecraft ¿Wollie¿ Shelley is a contestant on the new reality TV show Biological Clock. Her two pals entered her name and key stats, big chest, big legs, big bod and she was accepted as the perfect six foot contrast to the other female contestants. Wollie would trade in her fifteen minutes of Warhol fame for money so she agrees to the opportunity. Three women date three men with the audience deciding who should mate and produce the next generation...................... While dating on the air, Wollie¿s math tutor Annika vanishes. Unable to stay out of the situation, Wollie finds LAPD lacking interest in the case except for a cop wanting to take her out. So Wollie decides to look for the busy Annika, who besides teaching works as a production assistant and as an au pair for an Encino superwoman. As she makes some fumbling progress, a stalker warns Wollie to back off or else. Being Wollie and attracted to the stalker, she chooses or else..................... Chick lit meets amateur sleuth in Southern California. Wollie is as irreverent as ever though her dates seem a bit livelier than her previous appearance (see DATING DEAD MEN). The story line never takes itself seriously as it spoofs reality TV, chick lit novels, and amateur sleuth who-done-its. The cast starting with Wollie, but also her friends, her TV dates, the stalker, and the missing Annika come together to provide a humorous take on DATING IS MURDER..........................
