Blurb:
Going undercover is second nature for Private Investigator Lola Cruz, but she’s out of her league when the case of a murdered Royals Courtside Dancer leads her to a local nudist resort. Parading around the sidelines of Sacramento’s professional basketball scene in a barely-there cheerleading outfit is one thing—but parading around in nothing but smile? If she has any chance of hiding this from her traditional family and on-again/off-again boyfriend Jack, she’s going to have a lot more than her duct tape bra and killer dance moves to keep under wraps

Melissa Bourbon Ramirez has scored with her latest edition in the Lola Cruz Mysteries series. She had me cheering for Lola as the sassy PI goes undercover as a dancer for a professional basketball team to inves?gate a mystery that kept me guessing (and giggling) all the way to the bare-naked end.” ~ Dorothy St. James, author of the White House Gardener Mysteries
“¡Ay Caramba! Lola Cruz is back, smarter and sexier than ever. Melissa Bourbon Ramirez and her spicy PI detective will leave you hanging on every page!” ~ Tonya Kappes, bestselling Indie author
“This highly entertaining first-person novel launches a new series with a bang. Well written with laugh-out-loud humor and a complex mystery, this wonderful debut will have you looking forward to more books in the series. Lola is no lightweight detective, despite the chick lit feel to the book, and the balance between her personal and professional life is ideal. The tension in both romance and danger deepens expertly.”~Romantic Times Magazine, 4 Star Review

Thank you for the awesome feature of Bare-Naked Lola, Didi, and all of you for your Lola Love! It is such a fun series to write, especially when I can put Lola into crazy situations like a nudist resort.
So tell me, would you, or wouldn’t you, get naked in order to solve a case? And should Lola?
I’ve been looking for a cozy mysteries series to start. Is this the first book in the series? If not, which one is so I can look for it? A nudist colony? That must be hilarious!
This series sounds really good…love the names of the books lol!
GREAT post…sounds like a FUN series!
