Product Description:


Life is reasonably rosy for plus-size ex-pop star turned Assistant Dormitory Director and sometime sleuth Heather Wells. Her freeloading ex-con dad is finally moving out. She still yearns for her hot landlord, Cooper Cartwright, but her relationship with "rebound beau," vigorous vegan math professor Tad Tocco, is more than satisfactory. Best of all, nobody has died lately in "Death Dorm," the aptly nicknamed student residence that Heather assistant-directs. Of course every silver lining ultimately has some black cloud attached. And when the latest murdered corpse to clutter up her jurisdiction turns out to be her exceedingly unlovable boss, Heather finds herself on the shortlist of prime suspects—along with the rabble-rousing boyfriend of her high-strung student assistant and an indecently handsome young campus minister who's been accused of taking liberties with certain girls' choir members.



With fame beckoning her back into show business (as the star of a new kids' show!) it's a really bad time to get wrapped up in another homicide. Plus Tad's been working himself up to ask her a Big Question, which Heather's not sure she has an answer for . . .





Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Too neat an ending
This book was a very quick read. However it was probably my least favorite of the three.

While Heather is up to her usual shenanigans, it really doesn't heat up till the end of the book (the last 1/4 or so). Maybe this was because I didn't get into Tad and their relationship, maybe because Cooper doesn't have such a large role or maybe because it was all very breif. Gavin however still makes me giggle like a school girl( a reminder of my miss spent youth?)

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Could have been better.
I was a little disappointed in this book. Everything in the end of the book happened too neatly and quickly. The first 2 books were much better.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Fluffy and fun with a strange ending!
I bought the omnibus (such a weird word that...makes me think of a really big bus) of the first two books for $5.00 at a book sale figuring it would be good light and fluffy reading for a long haul plane journey and it was! I'm not a big fan of "chick lit" and technically these books don't fall into that genre, but they are certainly light and fluffy, with a mystery twist. Heather Wells is an ex-pop star (think a flash in the pan teen pop tart who sang in shopping malls a lot) whose label and boyfriend ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Solid Third Title
A solid conclusion (?) to the Heather Wells mystery series. A strong mystery, a nice romance, and lots of humor.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Is Big Boned The End
Heather Wells, former teen pop star, is loving life. It is spring, she is taking her first college class, she is dating a hot blond Adonis (who happens to be her math professor) and her former convict dad is moving out of the house. Her landlord and dream lover, Cooper, won't date her but what does that matter she has a boyfriend (aka blond Adonis math professor), a boyfriend that is determined to help her with her physical issues. According to him she is not over weight she is just big boned and need to ... Read More
