Double Dog Dare

Davis Way Crime Caper Series, Book 7

By: Gretchen Archer

Narrated by: Amber Benson

Length: 8 hrs and 46 mins

Publisher's Summary

Problem number one: Bootsy Howard.

Davis Way Cole lives a (relatively) quiet, (somewhat) simple, and (completely) witch-free life with her husband and twin daughters on the 29th floor of the Bellissimo Resort and Casino in Biloxi, Mississippi. Until Bootsy Howard shows up demanding a million dollars.

Problem number two: Princess Smucker.

What was marketing thinking when they booked the Southern Canine Association's annual dog show at the Bellissimo? And what was Davis thinking when she agreed to let a dog stay with her? For a week? In her home? The home where she lives a (fairly) quiet, (reasonably) simple, and (totally) manicotti-free life?

Problem number three: Leverette Urleen, MD.

The last thing Davis needs is an unsolicited house call from Pine Apple, Alabama's latest excuse for a doctor. But since he's there, considering she has a dead body on ice, she might as well have him determine the cause of death. Which he doesn't. Nor is he any help finding the body when Davis loses it.

On top of all that, he won't leave, further disrupting Davis' (more or less) quiet, (to a certain degree) simple, and (utterly) seersucker-free life. A life that's about to go to the dogs. Unless Davis can learn a few new tricks. Fast.

2nd Time Was the Charm

I adore the Davis Way series by Gretchen Archer. If there were Davis Way swag, I’d buy it. A movie? I’d go see it and buy it on Prime. But the first time I read Double Dog Dare on Kindle, it didn’t enchant me like the previous books. Then I listened to the Audible version read by Amber Benson. She made me realize that I had plowed through it too quickly just to get to the solution. The audiobooks forced me to slow down and enjoy!

Fun Book

Here's another great book in the Davis Way series. These books are laugh out loud funny and enjoyable to listen to.

Another fun read

I really like this series, however, I felt that this book dragged in many places. I get that Vree talked a lot but we do not need to have it over used- it took away from the story in my opinion. This would not keep me from listening to this book but it did make me forward past parts.

Best yet

I've listened to this entire series and love it. This is the funniest one yet. I love that Davis stays interesting even as her circumstances change.

I generally like when you get a little crazy but,

Why in the world would Davis continue to steal money when her sister was staying of her free will at the hotel, makes no sense, also the infectious dog was too much.

Not my favorite of the bunch

The story wasn’t very good and I cannot stand Fantasy’s voice. I love the narrator but she makes Fantasy the most annoying person to listen to.

hilarious 😁

love this book. can't wait for the next one.
keeps me on pins and needles

Bad Narrator Hard to tell About Book

This is supposed to happen in Mississippi, but the narrator’s unrealistic attempt at southern accents was just so grading that I gave up on the book about chapter 4. There has been nothing to make a connection with the main character and the secondary characters are annoying. Just couldn’t listen any further. Solutions seem so easy that I just couldn’t get into the story.

Go Davis!

Loved it! Got two more in the series and then we'll be waiting with anticipation for the 2021 book. This is such a fun series. 😁

Absolutely hilarious!

All of the Davis Way books are fabulous and funny, you can't help but love all the eccentric characters but this story is the best. With a crazy story and some new crazy characters (even a witch!) it's laugh out loud funny. If you're a fan of Janet Evanovich and her character Stephanie Plum you'll love Davis Way! I highly recommend it!
