Description
Dark. Raw. Gritty. Blond.
from USA Today bestselling author V. J. Chambers
Ever since blond detective Ivy Stern got herself kicked off the police force for “sexual conduct unbecoming an officer,” she’s been slumming it as a private investigator. But she’s handling the fact her life is in shambles just fine, thank you very much. She manages to get up to open her office by the crack of noon every day, no matter how hungover she is or whose bed she woke up in.
When Miles Pike, head of homicide and her it's-complicated-ex-boyfriend, refers a distraught man to her, Ivy’s ready to get cracking. Her new client is frustrated that the police are treating what he thinks is clearly his sister’s murder as a run-of-the-mill missing persons case.
Well, Ivy’s good with murder. Real good. And this case has her intrigued. There’s no evidence that the victim has been killed, but she’s gone, leaving everything behind from her cell phone to her credit cards. Everything except her bed sheets.

5By KT4VQGreat book!Skin And Blond
5By Pins4Loved the book. A lot of twists n turns and I really didn’t figure it out. Couldn’t put the book now till I finished it tonite. Thank you!Blonde noir book 1
5By SoliviniiiThis was an awesome first book in the series. I completely disagree with one of the other reviewers; the sex makes the story. It's an integral part of it because of the protagonist and what she struggles with. So, if you're uptight about sex, it won't appeal to you, but if you're open minded about struggles that people face in the 21st century, you'll find this book appealing. It had a great deal less of spelling and grammar errors than many of the other free books I've read, and I'm impressed.Interesting Read
4By Optimus Prime7I really enjoyed this book. Couldn't stop reading. Check it out for yourself!!!Skin and Blond
3By Murf811Overall, book has a good storyline, a real page turner. My big complaint is that at times is was like reading pornography. There was so much sex and that took away from the story. It was totally unnecessary. If 2/3 was deleted it would be much better. It would also be a good idea for it to be proofread for typos, missing words, etc. there seemed to be more than the normal amount.Thrilling read!
5By IcedStarLightIt was fast paced, hard boiled, and sexy - all the things you need in a mystery! I really respect how this author wrote the characters. Much better than I ever expected.
