Publisher's summary

Dakota Bombay prided himself on his Bond-like image-bad-guy killer by day, lady-killer by night. But his life gets both shaken and stirred by an irate grandmother demanding a marketing plan for the family assassination business, a precocious six-year-old son he never knew he had, and a mysterious redheaded funeral director who's got him intrigued in more ways than one.

Suddenly the perennial playboy is knee deep in pie charts and play-dates, while juggling the demands of the not-so-family-friendly family business. Throw in a team of rival assassins, and Dak's dreams of living trigger-happily ever after just may be put on ice.

I love the story but loathe the voice actor

The story is marvelous but the voice actor/ narrator was absolute torture to listen to. Dakota is supposed to be a hot young 007 kind of guy and the voice actor sounds like an old nerdy guy with fake teeth who thinks he’s gods gift to women. If a guy had that voice it would be a deal breaker for me to date, let alone sleep with. Please fire this guy and re-record. I beg of you….

love the book, not the narrorator

The narration didn't match the character. Dakota is a mid thirties, spoiled but intelligent, midwest playboy with an upbeat devil may care attitude. The narrorator sounds like a slurring mobster from the bronx with very little voice range for other characters. The story is ok, but the image of Dak in this book doesn't match the impression given in the first book. Here he's a self indulgent narcissist who miraculously changes in the span of weeks.

Womanizer’s comeuppance

“Some people have gaydar, some people have beerdar, I have blondar.”
I’m not sure I ever got behind Dakota Bombay as a likeable romantic lead, but he was funny as an over-confident, womanizing assassin who flounders when hit with the double whammy of (1) a surprise kid and (2) meeting a woman he wants for more than just sex. If you embrace cheesy movies like the
Adams Family, with its dark comedy, or Austin Powers, with its womanizing idiot-spy,
then you should be just fine with this installment of the Bombay family killers.
