I'm Sunny Haddock, psychic-ordinaire. Seriously, less than ordinary. My gift shows up at the worst times, and the visions I see are about as helpful as a Magic 8-ball. Maybe less so. I didn't even see that my dirtbag ex was cheating on me until I caught him in the act. Ugh.
So when my bestie invites me to move to a whole 'nother state and start a restaurant with her, I jump at the idea! Starting over in a new place with my girl Chavvah should’ve been a total fun-fest.
Come to Missouri, she said. It'll be fun, she said....until she texts me an SOS and goes completely radio silent.
When I arrive in town, the locals are not only unfriendly, they're downright hostile. Even my best friend's handsome but grumpy brother strongly suggests that I haul my butt back where I came from.
I’m undeterred. My BFF is missing, and I'm not about to go anywhere until I find out what happened to her and solve the mystery this town is trying so hard to hide from me.
I may be psychic, but it doesn’t take a fortune teller to see things are about to get really hot and hairy in Peculiar!
USA Today Bestselling author Renee George brings you small-town, best friend's brother, shifter romance full of mystery and suspense.
I was looking for a fun paranormal cozy mystery to dive into, but You’ve Got Tail ended up being a disappointment. The story had potential, but things went down hill fast. I’m not sure why I kept reading.
I did like Sunny’s psychic ability, but she lacked any understanding or training with it. I found the characters names funny, but then that got old fast. The last thing I enjoyed was Sunny’s introduction to the town where she meets Babel for the first time. It put a smile on my face.
Sunny comes to Peculiar to find her missing friend. She keeps saying she’s going to find her friend, yet she doesn’t do a thing. She has these psychic visions all over town, but doesn’t understand what it means. I would have liked her, but she didn’t do anything special. I was annoyed by all the rambling, which goes on and on, that she does in her head. And, she wasn’t good at detecting. All she does is run around clueless sticking her nose in things and getting into trouble.
The romance; between Sunny and Babel was nonexistent. Their was no development at all and I wouldn’t call it a romance. It was confusing; is what it was. These two are either having sex or they aren’t. Their was no building of any type of relationship.
The writing was fine, but the plot left a lot to be desired. It was obvious very early on who the villain(s) are, at least for one of them. Their was very little focus on the actually bad guys. We literally never even meet some of them.
Anyway, You’ve Got Tail was not the book for me. If the blurb intrigues you, I urge you to give it a shot. Just because it did not work for me does not mean it won’t for you.

LOL on the title but goodness yes that sounds disappointing.
Ugh… I hate when cozy mysteries flop because when they do it is bad. Thanks for the helpful review.
Ya, I agree. At the time I was having a lot of them flop, but since then I’ve found some wonderful that have worked out great.
Well boo, this looked cute and I felt one-click-y, but I fear disappointment.
I’m with you it looks cute, but unfortunately didn’t work for me and it was a one-click freebie, so I don’t feel to bad since I got it for free.
oh it’s too bad about the plot
It really is. I wasn’t having much luck at the time finding good paranormal cozy mystery, but my luck has turned ^_^. Thank’s for visiting.

I was really wanting to like this story. It sounded fun from the blurb and their are so many books out in the series, but unfortunately it was a disappointment for me. That’s Debbie for stopping by.
