About this listen

New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Jennifer Crusie returns with her most hilarious, sizzling novel yet.

Nell Dysart's in trouble. Her divorce is 18 months old, she's been sleepwalking through life, and the best job she can get is with a detective agency that specializes in relationship work. Determined to turn her life around, Nell flings herself into making McKenna Investigations a better place.

On day one, she uncovers an embezzler. On day two, she turns up bribery. On day three, she has sex with the wrong man. On day four, she steals a dog. On day five, her boss tries to fire her... And fails miserably. Because even Gabe McKenna has to admit that no matter how much he hates the confusion she's brought into his life, Nell shares his passion for making things right.

It's not long before they share another passion, one they can't ignore - even in the face of distractions like adultery, blackmail, arson, murder, and really bad business cards.

Not Jennifer Cruise's best but has potential

I did enjoy this story, it was light and fun with a some mystery mixed in. Not Jennifer Cruise's best work but it was worth the listen. The main guy was a bit arrogant and snotty but learns to appreciate her as times goes by. I really like Jennifer Cruise's work and found this story delightful.

If this was a series - I'd be a faithful fan

What did you love best about Fast Women?

Tbhe plots were interesting. The characters genuine. The relationships warm... a good quick feel good chic book.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I enjoyed the women - their humor. The women were real and not catty...real friends.

Which character – as performed by Sandra Burr – was your favorite?

I had a difficult time at first with the pace that she read in....slow down.....

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There were many tender moments.

Any additional comments?

Not a heavy book. The hardest part was keeping track of the characters and their relationshops. I enjoyed it tremendously and would love to visit with them again.

Mostly enjoyed it

I am not too fond of Nell. I get being a strong woman but she's annoying.

Not the Best

This is my sixth Jennifer Crusie books ??? I can say it was the best one of hers I have read. I loved the characters in the book but felt it took too long to get to the meat of the story. The ending is predicable and several twist and turns in the book ??? nothing you can???t see coming. In general it was a fairly fun book to listen too. Like the previous books of hers she has her reoccurring themes ??? it dishware.

Great listen!! A funny, romantic murder mystery!!

Would you consider the audio edition of Fast Women to be better than the print version?

Haven't read the print version

What did you like best about this story?

Very humorous!!

What about Sandra Burr’s performance did you like?

Well read. Easy to listen to. Enjoyed it very much!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

The funniest romantic murder mystery you will ever see!

Any additional comments?

I highly recommend this multiple murder mystery. On the way to discovering the killer, you'll find yourself laughing at the sometimes subtle and sometimes not so subtle humor of falling in love and making the personal discoveries that make an enduring relationship.

Great characters - nice to hears their voices

I feel like I was a part of the story. Why do I need to write at least 15 words?

Great story

I really enjoyed this book. Relatable characters and good story line. The reader was good too. She had subtle changes for each character and her voice was pleasant enough.
