No stranger to acting, she aces the screen test for a racy remake of the movie Body Heat alongside leading man Graf Miliau. The chemistry between them is undeniable, and why not? Graf has already starred in one of Sarah’s previous affairs and is well on his way to landing a big part in the sequel. Thrilled as Sarah is, her dream come true comes at a price. She has to leave behind her family’s ancestral home in Mississippi, her closest friends, and the possibility of settling down with her longtime love to film on location in Costa Rica. And it’s not long before rivalries flare, mysterious accidents occur, and this leading lady finds herself in some steamy tabloids without turning up in a single frame of film. Carolyn Haines’s Wishbones takes the sultry romance and colorful friendships of this delightfully Southern series and heads out west for a mystery that is as thrilling off camera as it is on.

I have spent the last year starting from the very first Sarah Booth Delaney mystery, of course interspersing these wonderful reads with other wonderful reads so as to NOT get overwhelmed by one single author. I love all the characters in each book and always feel like I'm experiencing a rude awakening when finishing each title. I guess that's because I live in the north and this is my first trip to the real ... Read More Rating:  - Quality you count on from Carolyn HainesI was so impressed that author Carolyn Haines received one of two 2009 Richard Wright Award for Literary Excellence that I grabbed her new book, Wishbones: A Sarah Booth Delaney Mystery, without knowing what it was about. It seems that Wishbones is the eighth in the Sarah Booth Delaney series. Although I have never heard of Haines nor Sarah Booth, I eagerly opened the gaily packaged mystery. Sarah Booth is giving up, for the time being, private investigating for a more glamorous life ... Read More Rating: - Loved It!Wishbones (Sarah Booth Delaney Mysteries, No. 8) I loved this book. Just like all of the other "Bones" books, I had to MAKE myself put it down so I wouldn't finish it in one sitting. I always look forward to the next one with lots of anticipation!
