Upon the arrival of a carnival and the murder of one of the members, Bella sets out to solve the mystery of who is the real murder. 🙂 This series began more mellow, with less mystery going on and more just character building, but now we’ve arrived here at the 3rd book and it’s gone completely crazy. Not that this is wrong-I loved Ruthie! It’s just something funny to note. But as a whole, she is a mini Maxine, in my opinion anyways. Sure, Ruthie’s actions are more teenage-ish, and she’s a whole lot more likeable than Maxine. Jones writes another book that is a combined series and it reveals Ruthie actually is Maxine as a child, I would not be surprised in the least. Second of all, and on the same note: this took me a while to notice, but Ruthie was a teenage version of Maxine. Of course Luke wasn’t totally the same person he did have his own character and personality, but there was a lot that reminded me of Charlie. First of all, and I haven’t finished Katie Parker yet so I can’t say this for certain, but Luke was a total Charlie Benson character. I didn’t notice this when I first started A Charmed Life series , but now, finishing the 3rd, I can definitely say that there are many obvious similarities between the characters in A Katie Parker Production and A Charmed Life.

This book was SO good! It was full of amazing characters, laugh-out-loud moments, a good Christian theme, and to top it off, crazy adventures involving solving a murder mystery (all while staying clean)! I’d highly, highly recommend it one of the best books I’ve read this year and another great gem from Jenny B. Is God sending her a message in all of this madness? With a murderer on the loose and her boyfriend’s ex on the prowl, this undercover clown has never had more to juggle–or more to risk. Then again, there’s no time for a relationship crisis when Bella’s doing her best to derail her father’s wedding and stay one step ahead of a killer. Problem is, his ex-girlfriend has moved back to town, giving Bella some murderous thoughts of her own. She needs her crime-solving boyfriend, Luke, more than ever. Though the police make an immediate arrest, Bella doubts this case is quite that simple. Her suspicions are confirmed when one of the stars is murdered. When the Fritz Family Carnival makes its annual appearance in Truman, Bella’s keen reporter instincts tell her the bright lights hide more than they reveal. Synopsis: Newly single, stalked by a killer, and in desperate need of some chic clown shoes–Bella is one skinny mocha frapp away from total meltdown.
