Description
Rivers don’t let rocks hold them back.
River Nightingale has decided to blow past the rocky men in her life. She’s played by the rules for too long—especially when it came to her career as a cop. She was the top closer of cases for years, but promotions in her small town cop shop went to her less productive male counterparts. River’s friends, three other women cops, are also ready to change careers. Together they leave behind their small towns, become their own bosses, and purchase a Seattle private detective agency.
Homicide Detective Gage Hamlin takes pride in his job; he closes cases and fosters justice. All that changed the day River Nightingale sauntered into his office. River has him questioning his pride, his cases, and his aversion to private detectives, especially beautiful private detectives.
River’s client thinks Gage got it wrong, and River is forced to prove Gage missed a murder. Will River and Gage find a way to play nice, or will River be forced to leave Gage behind?

This first novella in the Miss Demeanor series is incredible! I've found a new book boyfriend in Detective Gage Hamlin. Both of the characters are very good at what they do...solve murders and unravel crimes. This little book packs quite a punch...it has romance, mystery, intrigue, and did I mention romance? The chemistry and tension between Gage and River are spontaneous combustion waiting to happen. Very clean story lines and paragraph transitions and strong character development…I highly recommend this novella.

River Nightingale just watched another promotion pass her up. She’s closed more cases than anybody in her town, only to watch a man with half the experience who works the least amount of anyone take the job. Enough is enough and when the possibility of joining her new friends as a private investigator in Seattle becomes a reality she calls her uncle, pulls a few strings…Unfortunately for River, tracking down the murderer means working with bossy and prideful Homicide Detective, Gage Hamlin and reopening his case. He hates nosy private investigators and she hates smug arrogant policeman that look down their noses at woman cops...This is an amazing story, the suspense dripped from each page and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. This is the first time I’ve read a book from Joanne Jaytanie, and I loved it!

This story kept me captivated as the mystery and suspense of who-done-it unfolds. A two-part case for P.I. River Nightingale of the Miss Demeanor PI Agency…This story will keep you in suspense as the plot twists and turns unfold. River and Homicide Detective Gage Hamlin decide to work together rather than just against each other. In the process of working close together, feelings for each other come into play. This is an action-packed murder mystery with a touch of romance. This story has a great cast of characters, entertaining and witty dialog, along with action, suspense, solving a crime and bringing family together at last.

…River gets recommended by her uncle to a brother and sister who need her help with a cold case involving their parents. The elements are solid and prick the interest with intrigue right away, and on the back of that is contact with the one who initially handled the case. Gage will not be your average small town cop who thinks women can not be good at what they do but he is defensive none the less…it is stamped with her style and branded with romance that gives a warm touch to a murder mystery that needs solved. Along with this is another element that will need solving almost like a missing person's one that is key to the brother and sister. The characters are a delight and with everything that goes down with this one you will be caught up as you should be in a well written suspense.

What a great story. River and Gage are great together. She goes in and doesn't let Gage intimate her. That stuns Gage...lol Joanne writes such beautiful stories. If you like romance with suspense added in. You will love this story as much as I have. This book is just one more gem in Joanne's collection of jewels. I highly recommend this book!!!!

River and three of her friends, all former police women fed up with the male dominated force, establish the Miss Demeanor Private Investigation Agency in Seattle. River accepts a job looking into the alleged car accident of a client's parents and ends up cooperating with homicide detective Gage Hamlin. P.I. I Love You was a short romantic suspense story with the emphasis on suspense. Very entertaining with witty banter between the characters and good chemistry between River and Gage. It's the first in a series, and I would definitely be interested in reading what these private investigators get up to next. I received a copy from the author via NetGalley in exchange for an unbiased review.
