Fired. Tara Holloway can’t believe it. After all she’s done for the IRS, a few too many shots fired from her weapon and suddenly she’s public enemy number one. To add insult to injury, another agent has replaced her, and a ten-million-dollar assault case is hanging over her head. So much for traveling to Tokyo with Special Agent Nick Pratt, former partner and current boyfriend. Tara’s stuck in Texas, and using green tea ice cream to soothe her disappointment, as well as the terrifying prospect of a life behind bars.
Tara’s former boss, Lu “the Lobo” Lobozinski, has a plan—to stick Tara in auditing, where she can’t possibly get into trouble. But between bumping into a college frenemy whose family business is under audit, Tara’s stubborn determination to keep an eye on Nick behind the scenes, and her new long-range rifle, she’s about to get a taste of just how dangerous her life can be.
Death Taxes and Green Tea Ice Cream by Diane Kelly
Tara Holloway is a special agent with the IRS. After she shoots a suspect a few too many times in a case, she loses her job and finds out she may be arrested in the shooting and sued on top of that. The exotic trip with her boyfriend isn’t going to happen because she cannot leave the country. She starts to worry that she won’t find another job after her involvement in this case and she may end up in jail.
Thanks to her old boss, she lands a job as an auditor in a different IRS office. She expects it to be all boring office work and decides to make it more interesting by visiting the actual businesses. Little does she know the kinds of trouble she’ll find herself in and ends up the target of several unethical business owners while she’s worrying about the problems from her previous job.
Death Taxes and Green Tea Ice Cream by Diane Kelly is not only a fun mystery but also a steamy romance as Tara and Nick’s relationship heats up. If you’re looking for a story that will make you giggle and keep you turning pages to the end, this is definitely it. I cannot wait to read more of her books.
Ellen is a mom of a 25-year-old son and 30-year-old daughter. She is Grandma to one adorable toddler. In what little spare time she has, she loves to read, watch movies, and check out the latest toys and games.
This sounds like my kind of book. Not too serious, funny, with a little romance! I’ll have to look for this! Thanks!
Hope you enjoy it, Heather. I did!
