I'm going to buy myself a Blackberry and a slew of French-cuffed shirts. Possibly a nipple ring. Yum, it was some cozy goodie moments this time. Very tender and with a sense of authenticity and reality. I'm soooo happy about these books audiobooks. This kind of romance story works so good for me. I LIKE - old-fashioned and outdated? Free in a simply fantastic way. Highly recommended to listening to. View all 25 comments.

'That's all she wrote' - the meaning and origin of this phrase

Feb 02, Loederkoningin rated it it was ok Shelves: It's not hard to grasp that J. And worse, 2 books into this series and I'm still unsure what exactly he sees in Kit? The latter is whiny and obnoxious in a way that is caricaturesque rather than your typical human being with charming quirks and flaws. Where Jake What keeps J. Where Jake and Adrien's chemistry and love blew my mind, here Kit seemingly accepts J. X's affections with a sense of entitlement, and J. X appears to be simply slipping in and out of the story to provide bland sex and assistance.

All this against the backdrop of a somewhat dowdy atmosphere, true to the kind of grandma whodunits Kit writes and is ridiculed for. So it pains me to give this Lanyon only 2 stars, but since I gave the first more or less unfulfilling book in this series a hopeful 4 stars, I don't feel particularly bad. I already got book 3, but think this is where it ends for me. Also, Cheryl wore it better. View all 19 comments.

Nov 28, Heather K dentist in my spare time rated it liked it Shelves: Okay, it's Josh Lanyon , so for me 3-stars is about where I fall with all her books. It grew on me over time, as did the first in the series. I'm not a big fan of mysteries, but I liked it. It kept me on my toes. I know I keep reading Lanyon though I'm not particularly a fan, but I spend my own money on them and I keep hoping for more 4 and 5 star reads. This one wasn't quite there, but I think it was still money well spent.

This one focuses a lot more on the relationship between Kit and J. Still, I highly recommend this and will be reading book three post haste. Mar 12, Ula'ndi Hart rated it it was amazing Recommended to Ula'ndi by: Simone you evil woman! Brilliant Overall book rating: Let me just say this: I really had a ball with this one.

For some reason this one just made me feel like the above mentioned gif in the end. He keeps me guessing because he is so NOT my usual type. The dancing above is not only for the ending but also for getting more of JX. And their relationship in general. This one made me a all round happy girl.

On to the next one! View all 29 comments. Jun 17, Deeze rated it it was amazing Shelves: The murder mystery was all I expected from Josh Lanyon. I was guessing and second guessing all the way. I admit at the end I was a little concerned that the ending was not going to work, but I really should have had more faith, the ending turned out to be perfect lol. My main reason for loving this book so much though is J. He has become my dream man lol. He is seriously perfect in my opinion. The way he acts and treats Kit is so lovely. He is a rugged and no nonsense kind of guy, but with Kit he is caring and romantic and the love he feels for Kit just shines through.

I admit I love the way he tries to manage Kit in certain scenes, he is just adorable. Kit is a lovely guy but his hang ups, especially about age cause him to behave like a bit of a jerk sometimes. Now for the major shocker for me, the sex scenes. Most people that know me, know I have issues with sex scenes and I skim or even skip over them. I was reading every word. They were beautifully handled, and were such an important part of the story. Maybe the main reason they worked for me though was the fact they felt more like Love scenes than Sex scenes.

Kit suffers a broken collar bone, one where the bone broke the skin and required surgery, plus a dislocated shoulder and various bumps and bruises. Yet within 2 days he seems to be able to lift his arms and continue to function almost normally. Why bother to give your character such a serious injury if you are then going to have him perform as if he suffered only mild bumps and bruises?

This is a common occurrence amongst writers that never fails to annoy me. Overall this is a wonderful, romantic, exciting and mysterious read, despite my peeve lol. ETA Loved it just as much second time around, although I was impatient at the beginning waiting for JX to turn up lol. ETA J X is still one of my favorite guys. View all 8 comments. Dec 30, Simone rated it it was amazing Shelves: View all 6 comments. A ridiculously entertaining whodunit story. Kit finds himself in the middle of another murder investigation.

This is a Lanyon story, after all His long time mentor, Anna, is convinced someone is trying to murder her and asks Kit to come to her aide. Now we have a newly single Kit running off to t A ridiculously entertaining whodunit story. Kit, with his dry humor, is a fantastic lead character. I found myself laughing out loud on more than one occasion.

I loved this story told from his POV. He's pretty cynical and can be kind of grumpy. Despite his grumpiness I found Kit to be quite likeable, probably because I find grumpy characters being forced into happiness wildly entertaining. They fight it, try to find everything wrong with everything, complain, but in the end their loveable counterpart wins out.

So you can imagine my giddiness when J. I love these two together. The rekindling of their relationship was perfect. Lanyon can write some seriously sexy scenes without being overly explicit and I love that. No need for overly detailed scenes when it can be shown through the characters' dialogue and actions. The murder mystery was too fun. All the characters surrounding the murders and the attempts were kinda quirky and I loved all their banter.

All She Wrote

A laugh out loud funny, sexy and at times romantic read. All the things Lanyon does best. Plus, I love it when I figure out whodunit. Makes me feel smart. View all 11 comments. However, this time around I was fully engaged and appreciated his insecurities, his self deprecating humor, and his warring desires between trying to build something with his renewed lover JX or to call it quits due to his fatalistic expectations.

Somehow Christopher finds himself embroiled in the dramatic life of his long time mentor, Anna Hitchcock, who asks him to covertly discover who might be trying to kill her. Of course, this puts Christopher in mortal danger and in the mindset that he just might not be ready to completely let his relationship with JX fall to the wayside.

As JX comes to his aid and the two try to figure out who could possibly want Anna dead, they uncover some surprising and horrifying secrets. As usual, Lanyon delivers on the smart writing. Here the mystery is quite convoluted but well thought out, assigning motive and means to all characters involved, keeping everyone, including this reader, on their toes. Apr 24, Christina rated it it was ok Shelves: This was a bit of a letdown. The mystery was predictable and not as fun as the first one. There was some progression in Holmes coming to terms with his break-up with David and his own personal hang-ups, but not enough for my liking.

He still comes off as too insecure and petulant. Plus, I'm not completely convinced with J. I'm glad to see Holmes finally opening up to J. I was also happy to see J. It was getting to be annoying. I'm still holding out hope that Holmes will focus a little more on his relationship with J. X, but for now I need a break from these two. View all 20 comments. Nov 10, Shelley rated it really liked it Shelves: The Holmes and Moriarity series has the clout to surpass Adrien English for sure. I find myself thoroughly engrossed in the mystery and the whole process of deduction and elimination to the point where I was making side notes.

Pfft …not that it did me any good in figuring out who the murderer was. Lanyon sets up a bunch of crime writers as suspects of possible attempted murder; but each suspect is as incapable of actually committing the crime as the next. And then, just when you grasp that eureka moment Lanyon pitches another red herring!

Gah …blast that man and his smarts! Did Chris Holmes drive me nuts like I thought he would? On the other hand his self-deprecating issues make me want to strangle him and then call for an intervention. Then back on the other hand: I think that until he starts to truly believe in his own fine attributes he will continue to drive me a little nuts.

Having a man like JX confess love to you is like winning the lottery or accepting a marriage proposal from David flipping Gandy! The guy is godlike in looks, patience and caring …I could do love him forever. But this deserves a special mention because Lanyon took my breath away here.

The sex scenes apart from being hot — duh allow us an intense intimate look at the power and vulnerability of this dynamic couple. Discovering Holmes while he finds himself yielding ground and scrambling to pull it back is almost too much for me to bear.

But knowing that JX is the ultimate dynamo at interpreting Holmes needs is a gift and will bode well for the future. Oh God, I really do hope because these guys have me cheering for them big time. I love them together, I need them together …oh please Mr Lanyon be kind to them — to us! There is no need to tell you that this is superbly written or that the atmosphere was tangible or that the new characters are brilliant and realistic. Nov 04, Ilhem rated it really liked it Shelves: We find Kit and JX in another intrigue involving writers, when Kit is called to the rescue of an old friend.

I liked JX's successful attempts to make Kit come out of his shell and smiled fondly at Kit's inner antics. His biggest quality is his lucidity and it allowed him to grow up in this story. I was captivated by the mystery and what I found truly interesting was how Kit's character development and the intrigue worked as opposite mirrors.

I can't wait to see him in another mystery! Feb 16, Anna rated it it was amazing Shelves: I cannot begin to tell you how much I loved this book. This is one of those times when I wish Goodreads would let us rate a book 6 stars, because this one would definitely deserve that extra star. All the wrote is now one of my top 3 favourite Josh Lanyon books. She can write amazing mysteries and such realistic and strong characters. I have always liked that about her books.

I honestly wasn' I cannot begin to tell you how much I loved this book. I honestly wasn't expecting to like this book all that much, I actually put off reading it for months because I only gave the first book 3 stars..

Boy was I wrong doing so! All she wrote was amazing!! I knew before getting into the book that the second MC wasn't going to be in it for some time, so I was worried I'd get bored until then. I mean yes, Christopher has many insecurities which are understandable , but he slowly worked through them, learned to trust J. X and to open up to him figuratively and literally, eheh. I must say, this couple is probably the sweetest couple I have ever read about.

I loved reading about all the little touches exchanged, everything J. Maybe I'm a sap, but it was fucking adorable and I reread those passages multiple times. The mystery part was also great. Like I said, the book didn't focus on Christopher and J. I really got into the mystery, trying to figure out who was behind all of it. It was a really interesting book from the mystery aspect as well.

The only thing that I didn't quite like as much was the ending. I would have preferred to have one more chapter where we could see Christopher and J. I mean I'm sure things ended up good for them, but I would have liked to see how things were for them back in L. I am definitely going to be rereading this book pretty soon. Hopefully, Lanyon will also decide to write a third book in the series I'm crossing my fingers for that! View all 13 comments. When comparing this to the first story Somebody Killed His Editor I think I preferred this one for the relationship development, but preferred the first one for the mystery component.

Although, this may not be Lanyon's most loved series - give me time, I'm settling myself in before meeting Adrien and Jake - I'm still enjoying the heck out of the dynam 4 Stars I may be a total newbie when it comes to the works of Josh Lanyon, but I can already appreciate the impressiveness of the writing itself.

Although, this may not be Lanyon's most loved series - give me time, I'm settling myself in before meeting Adrien and Jake - I'm still enjoying the heck out of the dynamic between Christopher Holmes and J. Moriarity, and the compelling whodunit mysteries they keep finding themselves mixed up in. Oct 18, Gina rated it really liked it Shelves: This was a charming, funny, more romance than mystery installment in this series. I could tell from early on who done it, but didn't much matter. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Sep 22, Susan rated it liked it.

Nov 04, Ami rated it really liked it Shelves: Christopher "Kit" Holmes has been summoned by his old mentor to replace her in an amateur writers retreat.

that's all she wrote

When Kit gets there, however, his mentor tells him that the real reason behind her request is to ask Kit to find who is responsible for the threat of her life. At first, Kit is a bit reluctant but after he is involved in a car accident and then a real dead body turns up, Kit wonders if the threats are real after all. Helping Kit is his gorgeous lover, J. This book starts with a build-up of the mystery, pretty much like book 1. We have Kit attending the writers circle, meeting with the amateur writers, trying to "learn" about them and guess who might want to kill his mentor, Anna. I must've grinning and giggling several times -- and by the way, I find it amusing that Kit is bringing "Adrien English" series with him nice insiders' joke, there, Josh!

After Kit is involved in a crash accident and J. Mystery wise, it's nice, though I can see who is the person responsible like, halfway through the book. Romance wise, I enjoy the next phase of the relationship; reading how slowly Kit opens himself to the possibility of J. I like how J. Personally, I also enjoy the fact that this time, the main narrator is older than his lover Adrien is younger than Jake, as well as several other narrators in Josh's other series It's a lovely addition to the series.

Next, if there is another sequel, I wonder if Kit can start writing his great American literature and moves on from Miss Butterwith, since he is also in a different place in his life with J. Feb 07, Ije the Devourer of Books rated it it was amazing.
