A Host of Trouble...

In this witty and engaging novel, Dana Barry, the Shopping Channel’s star host, stops by the company’s rooftop party to pitch the new CEO her brilliant idea that just might save the flagging business, her job and possibly her love life.

As she chats with the smarmy executive, he backs her into a dark corner. For Dana, it’s a quid pro oh-hell-no. She escapes his lecherous grasp and grabs her drink on her way to the dance floor. Woozy, she blacks out.

When she comes to, the CEO is dead, fallen from the roof. Or was he pushed? And if so, by whom? It’s hard to know, but one thing is certain: Dana was close enough to be suspect.

Sure, she loathed how the creep moved in on her, but she’s no killer. Or is she? Truth is, Dana can’t remember much about those minutes. Now she has to use all her skills to prove her innocence to everyone, including her police detective boyfriend—and herself.

Meister’s latest is fun and breezy, a compelling, suspenseful read that entertains and keeps you guessing.

Reqlly Enjoyed

I love all this author's books. The narrator is really talented. It's a good series.

Dana is a very silly girl

She never thinks! She’s so very impulsive that it’s annoying. The only time she ever thinks is AFTER she’s done wrong and has gotten caught.

A fun novel

A fun read. I already fell in love with the impulsive Dana Barry in Ellen Meister’s last book, so I was happy to see a sequel. The Rooftop Party will work as a stand alone book, but why wouldn’t you want to read both? This is a light-hearted page turner that will have you trying to put together all the clues to figuring out the killer. And there are so many! Meanwhile, impulsive Dana strikes again and again. She’s often her own worst enemy and you can’t help but route for her. Enjoyable with characters you wont forget. I listened to the audio book, which was very well read.
