Sophie Katz Series by Kyra Davis

If you are looking for some fun beach reads, I encourage you to give Kyra Davis's Sophie Katz series a try. There are 5 books in the series so far and I have read and enjoyed them all.  In order they are: 1. Sex, Murder and a Double Latte,2. Passion, Betrayal and Killer Highlights,3. Obsession, Deceit, and Really Dark Chocolate, 4. Lust, Loathing and a Little Lipgloss, and 5. Vows, Vendettas, and a Little Black Dress.


Sophie Katz is a divorced mystery writer who always finds herself in the middle of mysteries herself.  She is an amateur sleuth who tries to solve the crimes and the cops think she is a little crazy!  There is Anatoly a private investigator who begins as someone she fights to someone she ends up falling for throughout the series.  These are considered chic lit but have some mystery and at moments you will find yourself laughing out loud wondering how in the world does she get herself into these situations.  Her closest friends have personalities of their own that will leave you laughing.

The author, Kyra Davis has actually visited two of our book clubs when we were reading her books and she is an amazing person.  She has written a pilot for Lifetime television to make Sophie Katz a series soon. Keeping my fingers crossed, it would be a great show!
