Shades of Pink (Lola Pink Mysteries #1)

Gina LaManna has crafted another wonderful series. Lola Pink is a character that easily seems more like a friend than a fictional character. Kudos to Gina LaManna for dreaming up another original storyline.

This is a funny whimsical story of mystery and romance. Lola Pink is 28-years old, smart and independent. Her grandmother, Dotty Pink, passed. Lola must decide can she financially pursue the dream Dotty and she shared. Into her shop walks billionaire Dane Clark. He offers an opportunity to save her dream. The problem is that she has never solved a case of corporate espionage. She has one week to solve the mystery and she will make enough money to follow her dream. Dane is smart, logical, a technological genius, and peculiar. His world is black or white, legal or not. The emotions, feelings and nuances of people are not familiar to him. Lola and her friends, Baba, and Annalise grew up in the city of Sunshine Shore near the carousel, ferries wheel and boardwalk. The top of the water tower has been their club house location since second grade. The city hosts an assortment of quirky characters: Bernie Poppers the boardwalk janitor, whose reading bench is directly under the girls’ club house, Darrel from Dungeons and donuts who keeps the girls high on sugar, and Mrs. Fredricks who always has a batch of cookies ready for them. This was a refreshing story for me. I hope you enjoy it.

This book has an array of wonderful and quirky characters. I love the way Gina La Manna writes. The story has a lot of suspense and the beginning of a romance. I enjoy that there isn\’t much violence in the book nor any graphic sex. It is a very enjoyable book. The narration is very good.

I have been an Audible member for > 10 years, and this is only the second negative review I have ever written…but THIS BOOK IS AWFUL. Both the plot and characters are ridiculously unbelievable. The only positive thing I can say about this book is that the narrator is adequate. Do NOT waste your money.

I really like all of the Gina LaManna book series normally. Love the Lacy Luzzi series and the Lip sticks and lies books and really enjoyed Three Wives. So, I was surprised when this didn\’t suck me in at first. But, I\’m glad I stuck it out. I ended up in enjoying it and will get the other books too
