Gina Gallo is a gemologist who would like nothing better than to run her little jewelry shop. Unfortunately she's also "the Goddaughter," and, as she tells her new friend Pete, "you don't get to choose your relatives." And you can't avoid them when you live in Hamilton and they more or less run the place. When Gina bumps into Pete at the Art Gallery Gala, sparks fly. So do bullets, when her cousin Tony is taken down by rival mobsters from New York. It turns out Tony was carrying a load of hot gems in the heel of his shoe. When Gina is reluctantly recruited to carry the rocks back to Buffalo, the worst happens: they get stolen. Pete and Gina have no choice but to steal them back, even though philandering politicians, shoe fetishists, and a trio of inept goons stand in their way. It's all in a day's work, when you're the Goddaughter.
Picked this up at When Words Collide. It was a funny, quick!! read. Quirky character.

I am taking this to the September meeting at Cravings. This was from When Words Collide. Time for it to find a new reader.

Picked this up at the meeting.

This was a fast, fun read, that reminds me of watching a quick program on TV. Now I want to tune in next week because there is more background to this character, and obviously more adventure to come.

Took the book to the Calgary BC meetup today.

Picked up at the meeting!

This was a nice quick read though not as polished as I usually expect in a book. But it was still funny and it does fit the June theme a bit!

To the finder:
Calgary has an active group of BookCrossers that meet to swap books and discuss book crossing every second Saturday of the month at 11am at Cravings Market on Fairmount Drive SE. We always love to meet new crossers, so please join us any time you like!

Thank goodness this one will be a quick read. Picked up at today's Calgary bookcrossing meetup.

Cute. I thought it was nice and quirky up until the lockpicking. Then it lost me a little.

Will be brought to the next Calgary Bookcrossing meetup and handed off.

Caught at the last Calgary bookcrossers meetup

I really enjoyed this quick read, and I hate to say it, but...
Now I want to read the others by this Canadian author.

Picked up at the January meeting, adding to my TBR pile.

This was the perfect read for right now; something quick and easy. I enjoyed it. I will put in the bag for the next meeting I can attend.
