This week I'm featuring Flaw and Order (The Worst Detective Ever Book 14) by Christy Barritt.
Some women panic. Joey Darling packs a suitcase.
Joey Darling knows not to interfere with a police investigation—especially one involving her husband, Detective Jackson Sullivan. But when Jackson vanishes while working undercover and no one will tell her what's happening, Joey launches her own investigation.
Armed with little more than a cryptic clue, an overactive imagination, and her irrepressible Aunt Dizzy, Joey heads to a charming coastal town where a stranger seems far too interested in her arrival, mysterious late-night activity unfolds along the waterfront, and the tightlipped locals warn her to stay away from the wrong side of the docks.
She soon suspects Jackson is in far more danger than anyone realizes. But with no script to follow, a knack for turning simple surveillance into spectacular disaster, and a celebrity face even a clever disguise can’t hide, Joey must improvise now more than ever.
Will her flaws lead to order this time? Or will this be the case that plunges her in too deep to ever find her way back to the surface?

Book Beginnings / First Line Friday
Three things never stopped at the Fatty Shack: the hush puppies, the gossip, and the Hot Chicks once they got rolling.
Friday 56
He tugged the ball cap low again, and the stillness came back over him like a tide coming in, smoothing everything flat. "You've got good instincts. So here's some free advice on top of the pie: Trust those instincts. The minute this town stops feeling friendly, you need to get back in that car, and you don't stop till you're back home."
