MEET MARTY WHEELER
Say hello to the dashing and otherwise charming estate attorney named Marty Wheeler. Attorney Wheeler is a prominent member of the community of Brentwood, whose life is about to turn upside down when he takes on his most baffling client to date, the very rich, yet, quite mysterious and aloof Jameson Bradford.
MEET THE SIDEKICK
Helping Marty navigate through the murky waters of his law practice is his summer intern, the highly strung and very sarcastic young lady, Bailey Martin. The attractive and quirky strawberry blonde is a soon-to-be college Senior at Duquesne University studying pre-law. She also happens to be the daughter of Marty’s ex-girlfriend, Vanessa. As such, the young Miss Martin soon proves to be quite an equalizer for Marty, who manages to keep the otherwise cocksure attorney from getting too comfortable with himself.
SEX, COMEDY, AND SUSPENSE?
How about all three? In creating this novel, first-time author DC Chase creates a genre called Sexspense. As the merged name implies, this novel features both elements, along with many Fletch-like comical moments, to keep the reader laughing as the sexual tension and suspense build to a surprising climax. The Trouble with Marty is the first in the Hot to Trot series, one guaranteed to be a series you’ll keep high on your reading list long after turning the final page.
I really enjoyed this book! I loved our main character Marty - considering he has an 'important' job he doesn't seem the most organised of people! I thought it was very unique in that the book was written as though Marty was talking directly to us for a lot of the time, and I really enjoyed reading the book and felt like I was just flying through the pages due to the style of it.
Marty had me laughing out loud at times but his 'assistant' / sidekick, Bailey also had me laughing as she just says things as she sees them! She also has an old head on her shoulders and was at times the sensible one of the duo!
The storyline kept me guessing along the way and I thought that the twists and turns along the way were great, and I was NOT expecting some of them!! The way everything came together at the end was just brilliant but also revealed some things that I would NEVER have guessed no matter how hard I tried!
I am really looking forward to reading the second instalment from Marty to see what he has been up to and what chaos seems to be following him around next time!
Huge thank you to DC Chase for gifting me a copy of the book in exchange for a free honest review. If you would like to grab a copy then you can do so here #Aff
