From USA Today bestseller and Edgar Award nominee Elle Cosimano, comes Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun—the hilarious and heart-pounding next installment in the beloved Finlay Donovan series.

"Fresh, heartfelt and witty, Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun is a twisty page-turner, and its relatable heroine Finlay Donovan is irresistible!"—Janet Evanovich, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Stephanie Plum series

Dating. Diapers. And dodging bullets. Who said single moms can't have fun?

Finlay Donovan has been in messes before—after all, she's an author and single mom who's a pro at getting out bloodstains for rather unexpected reasons—but none quite like this. After she and her nanny/partner-in-crime Vero accidentally destroyed a luxury car that they may have "borrowed" in the process of saving the life of Finlay's ex-husband, the Russian mob got her out of debt. But now Finlay owes them.

Still running the show from behind bars, mob boss Feliks has a task for Finlay: find a contract killer before the cops do. Problem is, the killer might be an officer.

Luckily, hot cop Nick has started up a citizen's police academy, and combined pressure from Finlay's looming book deadline and Feliks is enough to convince Finlay and Vero to get involved. Through firearm training and forensic classes (and some hands-on research with the tempting detective), Finlay and Vero have the perfect cover-up to sleuth out the real criminal and free themselves from the mob's clutches—all the while dodging spies, confronting Vero's past, and juggling the daily trials of parenthood.

Love this series

I love this series. It’s funny and keeps you on your toes guessing what’s going to happen next. Can’t wait for the next one.

Sexy and Thrilling! - Elle Cosimano has done it again!

This is the third book in the Finley Donovan series and just like it’s predecessors it did not disappoint! This book managed to keep me on the edge of my seat, heart pounding, wondering how Finley and Vero would manage to get out of their comically dangerous situations - and when it was all over I laughed (out loud) as they narrowly escaped with their lives and dignity.

Caught off Guard

I wasn't expecting to like this series this much as I do. It's clever and fun. I don't want to wait for the next installment, I need it right now. Vero is my favorite lady! I would love to get into all sorts of hijinks with her. Finlay is a very relatable, likable character. She's just as quick as Vero but with a level head. They ride for each other, and I love to see it. The whole cast is packed with depth and and I'm excited to see where we are headed.

Finlay Donovan, never lets me down!

Another great story with amazing characters, laughs and suspense at every turn. Can’t wait for the next one - Keep them coming !

I love this series!

The story is great and I love the humor. The narrator is wonderful and I love how everyone one has their own voice. I completely binged this story and now we have to wait for number four. I can’t wait for more adventures from Findlay and V.

surprisingly entertaining

reminds mea bit of Shelby Nicholls adventures...Light fun and keeps you entertained for sure. Definately strat from the beginning...

Loving this series!

I have binged the first three books and eagerly searched for a fourth (coming March 2024). The characters are fun, the story is compelling, and Angela Dawe is an excellent narrator. I keep wanting to know what happens next. I love the friendship between Finlay and Vero- everyone should have such a friend!

Good twist

3rd book and going strong. Love the 2 main characters. 2 women helping one another through life’s struggles. The “leap of faith” trust reminds me of being young before we became jaded by life’s challenges. Can’t wait to find what crosses their path.

Addictive!

This has been so fun to read. I couldn’t wait for each new book to come out, thanks to Audible for feeding my addiction! The reader was sooo engaging!!!!

Another excellent installment to the series.

I have been enjoying the Finley Donovan book series quite a bit since they have came out. It’s a very entertaining modern yarn of writer falling into the story they are researching to tell. This books writing and storylines are the best of the series in this latest effort. You can feel the ease of this world coming together. I am looking forward to the next installment.
