It is interesting to read about someone my age who is so like me, because my maturity level is pretty low. I loved her awkwardness and undersand her weight insecurity. I really understand wanting to fit into a smaller size. I freak out if I have to go to a 5 or a large. I love her curiousity and she is a lot like me in that respect. I have to find things out and if you say you can't tell me, be forewarned.I think it would have been a nice twist if all this time she called Max a non-Christian and she actually was a Christian. Hehe.

I was asked by the author to read this book and do a review. I really like cozy mysteries, so I had no problem with that. And I was not disappointed. It left you guessing the whole way through.It had the right amount of humor and mystery in it to make it a great cozy mystery. The main character, Bailey was great. She was a good Christian girl, but also realized, that with helping with a murder investigation she would have to do some things she wouldn't normally do. Bailey is spunky and doesn't always do what she is told.
I think Susette did a wonderful job with this book. The only problem I have is having to wait for the next book in the series.

This book had me chuckling from beginning to end. I love the cliff hanger at the end and am looking forward to the next book in the series. Bailey is a very likeable and real character, she doesn't seem like a fake christian- you can see her struggling with very real issues regarding interfaith relationships and maintaining a healthy spiritual life. Overall a great read!

You'll love this fun read!, November 8, 2012
This review is from: Maid for Murder: Deadly Business (Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
I like reading a good mystery, but throw in a little suspense and a lot of humor, and that's about as perfect as a mystery gets for me. Maid for Murder has all of these ingredients in spades. It pulled me in from the first line, made me laugh, and kept me guessing through its twists and turns.Susette Williams has created a fun, believable character in Bailey Tucker, who inherited her grandfather's cleaning business. Her penchant for finding trouble embroils her in murder and leads her into the arms of Detective Willington. With a wicked sense of humor that will have you chuckling throughout the book, Williams has written a romantic mystery that will will make you flip through the pages to find out what kind of trouble Bailey ends up in next, rooting for the blossoming romance between Bailey and the detective, and wondering how it's all going to come togehter until the very end.
A great, fun read!

I started reading the book last night and finished today. I laughed out loud several times. It was a cute murder mystery without any cursing and sex scenes. It was a real page turner. I liked the main character's sense of humor, too. Would read more by this author!

Do you like Murder Mysteries? How about a good Romance novel? Maybe a good comedy? If so, then Deadly Business, Maid for Murder Trilogy is the next book you need to read. Author, Susette Williams will take you on the ride of your life. Williams keeps you guessing and throws you a curve ball now and then, just to keep you on your toes.This book has something for everyone. Not only did I laugh, giggle and smile throughout the entire book and revel with Bailey Tucker and Detective Willington in their budding romance, but so will you. It has not one murder, not two murders, not even three murders that need to be solved but many and sweet, sassy, spunky Bailey is tied to them all. . .but maybe not how you think. This is a rainy or sunny day must read. Oh, not to spoil the ending but the biggest mystery of all is revealed at the end of the book.

Am I in a dead business, November 7, 2012

This review is from: Maid for Murder: Deadly Business (Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
I give this story 5 stars. Bailey Tucker has inherited a cleaning business from her grandfather. She finds dead bodies and the trouble doesn't end there. This is a fun murder mystery. Bailey is a Christian who is attracted to detective Max Wellington. who isn't one. This is a clean story but Bailey lets us know she wants more than a friendship with Max. I feel that she is struggling to hold on to her faith as Bailey does things she knows she shouldn't and then tells herself that she did it because she was uncover. But I think that is why I liked the story, because Susette Williams made the characters life like and you could believe they were real. The story keeps you turning the page till the end. I can't wait till book 2 comes out as this book leaves us wondering where her grandfather really is.

Fun read, but some issues., November 7, 2012

This review is from: Maid for Murder: Deadly Business (Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
This book had very high customer ratings, so I was really looking forward to it. It was a fun, humorous book, but I did have a couple of issues with it. The ending was quite odd, not really clearing things up. That may be due to the book going to have a sequel, but I literally kept trying to turn a page (on my Kindle Fire) because it felt like there should be at least another page or two. My BIGGEST issue is the main character. Bailey does a lot of "talking the talk" without much "walking the walk". She talks constantly about how she can't be with Max due to him not being a Christian, but really isn't trying very hard to stay away from him. She knows he's very interested in her sexually which she won't give in to, but then parades herself with him at a casino in a dress that's too tight ("...tonight I'd squeezed my size eight body into a size six dress.") I'm sorry, but that's just wrong. That's like telling an alcoholic it's wrong to drink while waving a bottle of booze under his nose all night. To make it worse, they're at a casino and he wants them to gamble so they can talk to people without them getting suspicious. She refuses to play herself ("I don't gamble.") but has no problem playing the part of his floozy girlfriend, being all over him. That is a hefty double standard, and it really bothered me.

I love William's style, so much fun, and a page turner from the beginning. If you like cozy mysteries with a spunky main character, this is a must read.
