Riley Thorn and the Corpse in the Closet, the second in the Riley Thorn Series, by Lucy Score, was just as amazing as the first!
The snort-laugh-inducing adventure continues as we follow Riley, Nick, and their hilarious old geezer neighbors through tracking down a serial killer who uses glitter bombs as their calling card. Funny, quick paced, and engaging - this story had me smiling and giggling through the whole thing. I highly recommend the Riley Thorn series by Lucy Score!
Thank you #NetGalley and SOURCEBOOKS Bloom Books for access to this amazing book in exchange for an honest review! Can't wait for #3!

I am loving this series of spicy and hilarious murder mysteries from Lucy Score. Yes, this is a rerelease but it is still worth your time. In the second book of the series, our psychic heroine Riley and her live-in, touch-her-and-die boyfriend Nick, are pulled into a new murder investigation, with predictably hilarious results. The cast of zany secondary characters make this book as much as Nick and Riley do, and the overflow of snark is on point. And even among the funny, there is character growth happening for both Riley and for Nick as Riley starts learning to accept her psychic abilities and Nick learns what it might mean to be in a grown-up relationship. I have my fingers crossed for Wander and Gabe, and I am really hoping for Jasmine and Weber. I will happily read the next Riley Thorne adventure!
5 stars. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a complimentary ARC of this book. These opinions are my own.

Hear me out…a romance novel but add in murder mystery, suspense, paranormal and laughs that will leave you having to catch your breath. Tie that all together and you get this 5/5 read from Lucy Score!
Although this series is different from what I’m used to from her, I’m kind of obsessed. Like can’t get enough, will you please do more of this, I love it, obsessed.
This book is like a cozy hug with so much to love. We love a protective boyfriend and Riley’s PI boyfriend Nick does not disappoint plus the banter between the two of them is *chefs kiss. Also the cast of side characters are not only quirky but so lovable and it feels like you’re right there with them.
The world of Riley Thorn is hard to leave so grab the book and jump into this world that will have you wanting more at every turn of the page.

Riley Thorn is one of my favorite series from author Lucy Score, re-reading just for the laughs and to prepare for the fourth book coming soon.

Didn't enjoy it as much as "Dead Guy Next Door," but I gotta admit, it really picks up halfway through! The foreshadowing was on point. Absolutely loved the message about bullying, but gotta admit, I shamelessly wanted more Nick & Riley moments on screen. Still, overall, it's a solid read!

This series reminds me a bit of the Mediator series by Meg Cabot but more romcom and steamy vibes.
I enjoyed the characters. They bring a lot of humor and fun to the murder mystery story. I also liked how Riley and Nick’s relationship developed from the first book.
The plot was interesting and kept me hooked. I love a murder mystery and I thought the Guild was a good plot line too.
A fun addition to the series.

I received this and immediately knew I had seen it before. This is book 2 in her Riley Thorn series and it originally came out in 2021 but it's just as good.
