Bahama Mama focuses on Molly and Anders. Anders is Jimmy's older brother, whom we met in the previous book.

Molly's daughter witnessed a murder and got caught up trying to escape from the scene. Molly needed to help her daughter out and Anders decided to help her out. They spent so much time together things started to heat up between them.

Once again this book was full of adventures that will keep you on the edge of your seat, with the added bonus of steamy scenes. Loved it!

Bahamas Mama is a delightful read. It has a mixture of comedy, romance, mystery and action. The heroine, Molly McBain, is a feisty redhead, who also serves as the comedy relief throughout the book. The hero, Anders Oystergard, is a famous country singer whom Molly has had a crush on for years. Molly, also a country singer, even opened a concert for Anders once although they never met. Due to various circumstances Molly had to give up her dreams and her music career. She is now a broke single mother barely getting by. But she has a great group of friends who are also somewhat eccentric. The characters are well developed and really make the book a standout.
Author Trisha Leedom has the gift of writing very descriptive scenes. Key West, Florida, seems to be a character in and of itself.
My only complaint is two of the character traits given to Molly. They are meant to add to the comedic aura of the Molly but I found them annoying.
This book is part of a series but can be read as a stand-alone and it has a HEA! (I had not read the first book and I didn’t feel like I missed anything.).
Highly recommend!
4 1/2 stars

Overall, I really enjoyed this tropical romance for the fun, light read that it was. Molly and Anders have an amazing relationship - when he isn't being a total jerk to her. The several instances when he was a complete loser really detracted from most of the rest of the good stuff. Also, the entire subplot involving Cheyenne witnessing the murder and everything associated with that is totally ludicrous. But if you can suspend your disbelief for long enough, it makes for a pretty entertaining story. My favorite character has to be Obie, even though he had a relatively small role in the overall tale; and I was very happy to watch him blossom as he did. In fact, pretty much everything turned out good in the end, which was definitely a plus.

Book Two in the Key West series is the story of Molly McBain and Anders Ostergaard.

Molly is the single parent of a teenage daughter. Her deadbeat husband ran off with another woman and her daughter is now secretly communicating with her father via computer and blaming Molly for keeping her father away from her. As if this wasn't enough, her best friend's wedding is coming up and she's just discovered that the groom's brother is the country music star Molly's been crushing on forever!

Anders is trying to keep a low profile after an unfortunate situation in Vegas. He decides to come to his brother's wedding and try to blend in but small towns don't make good hiding places. Then there's this woman named Molly who seems to be the targeting him for all of her klutzy mishaps! Yes, she's a little odd, but she's also pretty and has curves in all the right places...

When Molly's daughter goes missing, Anders and Molly must go on the run looking for her because there's a killer on the trail who wants to find the teenager first!!

Where in the world can I find myself my own Anders?? Seriously, I know I’m a married woman but holy f***. I thought his brother, Jimmy Panama, in the first Key West book was hot, but Anders has taken it to a whole new level. I’ve only got extremely high hopes for the third book next year featuring the third brother Jonas. If it’s anything like the first two then we are in for one hell of a hot ride.

I’ve really enjoyed reading this book. It’s got a little bit of everything for everyone. Sex? Check. Action? Check. Humour? Check. Hot man? Double check. It’s been pure escapism for me and I loved every page. Everything works really well together and it’s a fantastic read.

The writing style was gripping, fun, and very heartfelt in moments. It left me guessing a little until right at the last moment it all clicked into place, when there was one little tiny detail what made me think through it properly. I sort of expected the ending, it wasn’t that difficult to work out when it came to Molly and Anders relationship.

I definitely preferred Molly in this book compared to the characters of the first. I found her feisty, independent, and funny. I felt for her in the book when it came to things with her daughter, Cheyenne, and for how she felt towards Anders. Her first meeting with him had me laughing, it’s definitely something I would do. You already know my opinion on Anders so let’s not go there… Molly’s relationship with Cheyenne really bounces from the page, and so do her feelings and friendships towards other people.

This book definitely deserves its 4 out of 5. The only thing that I will say is that it was all a little far-fetched, but I loved it for that.

I was given a copy of this book by the publisher through net gallery and the following review is my opinion.
Murder, Romance and Mayhem! If you love a story with these elements go for this book. It will keep you reading long past your bedtime. There are parts of the story that are a little far-fetched but I read to be entertained so I dont mind. I was given this book but would gladly have paid for it.

Book 2 did not disappoint, though I wish the female characters were a little less cliched. There's romance, mystery, and suspense. These books are quick reads and keep you engaged. I can't wait for book 3!

The plots in this series are so ridiculous - the witnessing a murder, sneaking onto a cruise ship, flying all over - nothing about it was remotely realistic. However, this was still a fun romance with a tropical twist.

Fangirl and hunk of a country music heartthrob...recipe for what, trouble or tropical bliss, tragedy or triumph. Find out in this edge of your seat, can't turn the pages fast enough romp of a romance filled with murder, mayhem, and just enough steamy parts to make it worth your while. I highly recommend it!!

When you read too many romance stories , you know the plot by heart even before you start. This was a cute story, with the usual plot, though it had a twist in the end ,it didn't surprise me much. It is a fast paced book,and has action and romance.Anders was the rich handsome rake , a celebrity country singer. Molly , the single parent , trying hard to make ends meet. They meet and chemistry does the rest. Though i didn't read the first book in the series , i didn't feel lost , this can be read as a standalone,but the ending does make you want to read the next book. My favourite character was Molly

Recommended for romance and chick lit readers

Yep, one of those.... One of those books that keep you up at night even though you are really tired but, well, one more chapter. Just one more ...till the end. At 2 am.
I didn't know the first book in this series and expected nothing but a nice romance. What I got was so much more. I got a story that kept me up, turning the pages, reading on and on, shedding some tears when finally...well, ...finally...and I just couldn't put it down. It was thrilling and captivating, it was romantic and it kept me breathlessly following my hero and my heroine from page to page, and, yes, from chapter to chapter.
I knew or at least thought I knew who was behind the worst of the problems but still...it remained gripping and full of suspense .
Wonderful characters, a gripping story and all in all a book that kept me up at night. And guess what I did first thing when I had finished it? I went back online and bought the first book in the series. And now guess again who is in for another short night......(and it is sooooo worth it!)
