Publisher's summary

Jacobia "Jake" Tiptree's leisurely summer dreams involve rebuilding the front porch of her Maine fixer-upper and shingling the leaky tool shed out back. That's why she's hired the avenging angel of household hygiene, Bella Diamond, to keep her house--and her teenage son Sam--in tip-top shape. But when Bella confides in Jake that she's been receiving death threats, Jake has two choices: find out who is frightening the hapless housekeeper--or risk losing her. With a marauding moose loose in town, a troublesome love triangle occupying Sam, and her estranged relatives about to descend for the Fourth of July, Jake's summer is sure to be anything but peaceful. No matter how carefully you remodel your life, murder can take up residence anywhere.

Why is her ex husband and her father both Tiptrees? Did I miss something. I love these books but I feel like I missed something.

Always a good story

Interesting plots, some handyman advice, and realistic characters. Hard to beat.

Better and Better

I really enjoy this series. What I like most is that everyone does not walk around with rose colored glasses. The interactions between the characters are realistic and the pacing of there is a lot of action to keep me interested in the story.

holy saw blades batman

🙄 that was entertaining, but not able to transcend reality. I'm enjoying the series overall, but want to smack Sam for his hormones, and I want to see Wade more involved.
