Book #2 in the Taste of Texas Mystery series: Tex-Mex waitress and part-time reporter Josie Callahan is about to serve up some Lone Star justice in this spicy Taste of Texas Mystery from the author of Here Today, Gone Tamale.

Tourists are pouring into the town of Broken Boot for the annual Homestead Days Music Festival. Opening the celebration at Two Boots dance hall is smooth-talking country singer Jeff Clark, the ex-boyfriend of Josie's best friend, Patti Perez. When the charming Clark woos Patti onstage in an attempt to rekindle some sparks with his old flame, Josie fears her friend will end up as just one more notch on the singer's guitar strap.

To impress her editor at the Broken Boot Bugle, Josie and her Chihuahua, Lenny, pursue the singer to Patti's house, hoping for an interview. Instead, they discover Clark facedown in a bowl of guacamole with a bloodied guitar at his side. With Patti suddenly a murder suspect, Josie must use her reporter skills to find out who had a chip on their shoulder - before the killer double dips....

My Review: Another fun book in this cozy mystery series. I love the main character Josie Callahan and her sidekick Lenny the Chihuahua is the cutest furry detective.

I actually liked this one better than the first book in this series: Here Today, Gone Tamale. Most of the first half was taken with introducing all the characters, so the pace was slow. For this book, I knew all the characters and the author didn't spend that much time re-introducing them, so it was a lot better. I'm looking forward to the next one in this series, hopefully it will come out soon. :-)

This was in a box of mysteries that JennyC1230 surprised me with. I know I will enjoy this one, perhaps I will find a good recipe tucked inside this new to me series that takes place in Texas. =) Thank you!

Such a fun read. I really liked the main character, Josie, and her dog, Lenny. The story was loaded with suspects and Josie is a really good sleuth. I was surprised by who did it. Really enjoyed it.

Traveling to T02S03B11D20 to surprise you with a fun read. Happy Reading and Happy BookCrossing!

Any book with a dog in it is bound to be good!

Released with the firs book in the series.
