My Killer Vacation

Tessa Bailey

3.86

A brash bounty hunter and an energetic elementary school teacher become the murder-solving team no one asked for—but they’re stuck together, come hell or high tide, until a killer is found in this spicy rom-com from Tessa Bailey, #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Happened One Summer.

It was supposed to be a relaxing vacation in sweet, sunny Cape Cod—just Taylor Bassey and her beloved brother—but discovering a corpse in their rental house has really thrown a wrench into their tanning schedule. Now a rude, crude bounty hunter has arrived on the back of his motorcycle to catch the killer and refuses to believe Taylor can be helpful, despite the countless hours she’s spent listening to true crime podcasts. Not to mention her fulfilling teaching career of wrangling second graders.

Myles Sumner is only there to do a job, not babysit an amateur sleuth. Although…it is becoming less and less of a hardship to have Taylor around. Sure, she’s stubborn, distracting and can’t stay out of harm’s way. She’s also brave and beautiful and reminds him of home. In other words, the insatiable hunger and protectiveness she’s awakening is a threat to his peace of mind. Before Myles sinks any deeper into this dangerous attraction, he needs to solve the murder and get back on the road. Only now there are two threats—and the biggest one is to his heart.

    Taylor, a 2nd grade teacher and her brother decide to go on vacation in the cape, where soon after arriving they stumble upon a body… thus ensues a whodunnit murder mystery romcom with a sexy grumpy bounty hunter that was really hard to put down. The relationship with the siblings was cute how they depend on each other, their parents history seemed questionable but i guess that one way to make them part of the story without making them part of the story… The end had me laughing so hard haha. 🌶️ 3/5 This was a wild ride of hot and cold… which was hilariously frustrating, but also worked really well. The banter was really good, crude and fun the way they were like “omg i have to have this person” to “no this will never work” - so much back and forth and giving into temptation. There were quite a few parts where that sudden feeling of getting walked in on happens, hits like an ice bucket of water being dropped on your head… what a fun tease.
