Until she finds her principal dead in the parking lot of the seedy gentleman's club.When Addison finds herself out of a job, she turns to her best friend, Kate, who owns the McClean Detective Agency.

Sometimes being nosy has its advantages.When her principal's murder reveals more Whiskey Bayou secrets than people are comfortable with, the suspect list grows longer than Addison's arm. Fortunately, the detective in charge seems more than capable of finding the killer and driving her crazy at the same time. Dear Readers, Thanks for joining me and Addison Holmes on the journey. This was such a fun series to write, and believe it or not, a lot of the stories in these books were taken from real life. I won't tell you which ones, but real life is definitely stranger than fiction.  If you're new to this series, Addison is written in first person. She's got so much of my personality in her, which is why she's so easy to write. She and J.J. Graves (which is my other first person series), and both me, but two different sides of me. Addison took on a life of her own once she hit the page, and I never looked back.  This series is fun and funny, and as the cast of characters grew, the potential for the trouble they could get into was limitless.  I hope you enjoy and keep coming back for more! Love Always,  Liliana In Whiskey Bayou, Georgia, the humidity is thick, the gossip juicy, and family is everything. For Addison Holmes, she's just trying to get by, and teaching history to a bunch of hormonal teenagers isn't exactly lining her pockets. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Who would've guessed her principal would be in the audience of the strip club that hired her? Addison is almost positive her life can't get any worse. Until she stumbles over her principal's dead body in the parking lot. There's no way Whiskey Bayou won't hear about that juicy tidbit, which means she's likely to be out of a job. Thank goodness for Kate McClean. Addison's best friend owns The McClean Detective Agency, and sometimes it's good to have friends in high places. Or at least places that can offer a girl a job to spy on low-lifes and adulterers. But when her principal's murder intersects with her new job, this gum-shoe learns fast that she knows nothing about catching bad guys. Fortunately, the sexy detective in charge is there to lend a hand.
