Voodoo Dreams

The Pittsburgh Lady Lawyer series is such a great read. Books 1 and 2 set up the circumstances for this third book. Brianna is frustrated by her current position and decides to go to New Orleans for a break. There she comes upon another lawyer from a rival Pittsburgh firm. Together they investigate a Voodoo priest who is stalking her, go deep into the alligator infested bayous to solve the mysteries. Ms Lorens descriptions of New Orleans are so accurate and bright, that you can see and feel it in your mind. A well written book that will hold your attention and make you think about it long after you read "the end".
This book was provided to me by NetGalley in return for my unpaid, honest review.

When corporate attorney Brianna loses a big case, she hops on a plane on a whim to get away from Pittsburgh and get a break from the cutthroat attorneys of a rival firm. So imagine her shock when she ends up at a B&B with said firm’s junior associate, Evan. Evan, a cop turned attorney, is dissatisfied with the law and intends to let loose during Mardis Gras, until he finds out that his attractive seat mate is another attorney.

As animosity turns to cautious tolerance to something more, Evan and Brianna get looped into a mystery involving voodoo and a mysterious man seemingly stalking Brianna.

This was a quick and fun read, with the descriptions of New Orleans making me want to hop online and book two tickets to what sounds like a magical city! My big gripe is that both characters act very immature for their age, which makes it hard for me to relate and like them, especially in the first third of the book. Evan, in particular, is a little too jock-y for my taste. But this was a fun and fast read.
