Thankless in Death by J.D. Robb

Thankless in Death by J.D. Robb - 416 pages

It's Thanksgiving and Eve Dallas is looking forward to spending time with her husband and his family from Ireland.  Then she starts investigating a murder.  She knows who killed them.  She knows when and how.  She just can't seem to find him.  And he's started working down a list of people he feels wronged him.  Can she catch him before he kills anyone else?

This is another in the Eve Dallas mystery series by J.D. Robb (aka - Nora Roberts).  I listened to this one on audio which was great with all of the Irish accents included.

Four Weddings and a SIxpence by Julia Quinn, etc.

Four Weddings and a Sixpence by Julia Quinn, Elizabeth Boyle, Laura Lee Guhrke, and Stefanie Sloane - 407 pages

Four friends find a sixpence hidden in their mattress as children at school.  They decide that it will be their lucky piece that will help them find the husbands of their dreams.  So as adults entering society, they pass the sixpence from one to another as they search for true love.

This was a compilation novel by four historical romance writers.  I thought it was pretty well done.  I enjoyed all of the different writers' stories as each one wrote one of the girls' romances.  I also really enjoyed the narrator and her accents/dialects she used.  She did a great job of keeping the characters voices unique to them.
