About this listen

Lady Venus drops dead on the Pineapple Port community center's stage during a Valentine's event, Charlotte and the new detective agency she's started with her fiancé Declan are called to the scene.

As danger mounts, she'll need everyone's help to keep Venus' family safe, which means tapping into Declan's giant, former employee salesman and his crazy Uncle Seamus—both of whom are falling for the ladies in their lives.

Someone might need to keep an eye on Darla and Mariska, too—wiith Lady Venus dead, they think they should take her place...and a mysterious local matchmaker doesn't agree!

Love is in the air, is a very good description for the book and how I feel about the story and the series in general.
Although I had guessed who was responsible from the get go, it was a lot of fun to see if I was right. Especially with the antics of Darla and Mariska as they once again add humour to the story in a way that only they can. They might only be side characters or sometime sidekicks for the actually detectives and main characters but they make this series for me. The rest of the characters are a delight and even Blade might have won me over in this book, as he joins the detective agency. He has been around for a number of books but i think this is the first book that he has really got involved. He is another quirky character in a series that is designed to make you laugh and at book 17 the series still going strong. The story is told by mulitpul characters, with Declan and Blade acting as bodyguards, Charlotte and Frank working the murder and Darla and Mariska working as match makers, this means the fun never stops, well until you reach the end of the book.
Amy Vansant is a master of the cozy mystery genre and I can't wait for the next book.

Love is in the air, well it would be if the matchmaker herself hadn't dropped dead in the middle of the stage. Pineapple Port own detective team is quickly on the case but Declan and the newest employee Blade are hired as bodyguards for the remaining family members. Charlotte with nothing to do looks into the death by visiting over matchmaker in the area. Was her death a murder? And if so could one of them be responsible? The family, her son and daughter, refuses to cancel there commitments to there clients and continue to plan a retreat for there top clients on a private island. When the autopsy results come back and an attempt on both siblings is made, Charlotte finds herself packing her bags to play both detective and bodyguard. Is it a good idea to stay on an island with a killer lose? At the same time Darla and Mariska decide to fill the gap left behind by the victim and start there own matchmaking business. They just need to find the perfect couple. What could go wrong?
I like the narrator and for me she is the voice of the Pineapple Port gang. She can provide voices for both the old and young make and female and even a few accents.
