I received a free copy of this novel in exchange for my honest review.

Murder in Paradise is a humorous cozy mystery novel with quirky characters that will keep you entertained throughout the novel. Madison resides with her best friend Fabiana in The Cove, located in sunny South Florida. Madison owns and operates the apartment community they live in, as well as doing side jobs for Fabiana's boss "Brick". Life gets interesting when Fabiana's ex husband returns and turns up dead. Madison will stop at nothing and will put her life on the line to prove her best friend's innocence.

I always enjoy a good mystery, especially one that immediately draws me in and keeps me engrossed. I loved the crazy names and antics each character got into, I spent a lot of time laughing at the outrageous circumstances that came up. I have never read any of this series before but after reading this, I think I will go back and read the others in the series. Deborah Brown has made a new fan out of me! Please note, although this was book four, it can be read as a standalone. ( )

This was another great book by Deborah Brown! I really am enjoying these books, even though I've been reading them out of order. This is part of a series but you can easily read it on it's own as a stand alone. Madison and Fab keep the action going in Murder in Paradise and have quite the crazy situation to try to work their way through! Mystery, murder, a private island.....it has all the makings of an intriguing story! This is a pretty quick read (because of some pretty hot scenes and the fact that you don't want to put it down) which would be great for a nice weekend, a break from reality or (when its warmer) a nice poolside vacation! ( )

Another great adventure with Madison,Fab and company. This time around, they are working overtime to keep Fab out of prison. And considering Fab's antics, it is not an easy assignment.

The further I go into this series, the more well developed the characters are becoming, which makes them even more enjoyable. There is plenty of action and humor in this story again, as well. It's a real page turner that you don't want to put down.

I'm a little turned off by the sexual content in this book, which went a little further than in the previous ones. For me, there are some things I just don't want to read.

I received this book to review through Beck Valley Books Book Tours, all the opinions above are 100% my own. ( )

Murder in Paradise is a slam dunk. Twists and turns had me second guessing myself as I tried to solve the murder. I was so sure I had it, I didn't. All of my favorites players were back: Fab, Madison, Zach, Creole, and of course Jazz. Oh to be spoiled like Jazz!

Fab's ex-husband makes an apperance on the keys and boy does he bring the trouble. Fab is booked for a double murder, leaving Madison to use her mother as her wingman for her dubious private investigator jobs. Can't you just picture it? Momma Westin wearing all black slinking around hot wiring cars? I could never imagine my mother doing the same...Although Madison's own life mirrors mine in no way shape or form. Hers is much more action packed.

Are you dreaming of summer? Did you get hit by "the storm of the century"? Download a copy of Murder in Paradise and you'll be picturing yourself beach side in no time!

Here we are again in the Keys with Madison and Fab in their crazy world. Even though this is the 4th book in the series it can be read as an individual as the author explains and clarifies what has happened in the previous stories.

It is amazing how the author can keep providing new escapades and adventures which keep the reader enthralled and the story moving forward. We fall more in love with Maddison, feel sorry for Fab and learn more about Maddison's family, plus the fact that even though Maddison thinks she is in charge the real power is her mother.

This story revolves around the murder of Fab's ex-husband who has returned to try and find the hidden booty from previous criminal endeavors. Fab is framed and it is a race against time to find the real murderer. This takes us on a real roller coaster ride full of violence, sex and back handed IOUs.

The characters have become more humane and made more life like which is testament to the author, I cannot wait for the next installment, keep them coming! ( )
