Possibly A Ghostwriter...
I just finished this up last night and it just left me confused. The last book ended with a trial looming and this one picks up in Vegas?! And where is the Hannah of the past 17 books? It's like she's a different person. I really think Fluke had a ghostwriter on this. There was none of the condescending grammatical corrections that Hannah has done in ALL the previous books and her personality in general was just...off. The mindless recipe filler talk and ridiculous "feet up" cat chase was still there though. SPOILER ALERT... How is Ross even back in the picture? And the entire family has kept in touch with him? And Doc knows him well enough to be his best man? Come on!! In 3 days slow-and-steady-in-love Hannah is ready to marry him?! Another reason I think ghost-writer is Hannah seems a bit more "ready" for love - a good but unusual characteristic. I'm sooo disappointed that after all the time invested in this series (and being team Norman) that she basically chooses a resurrected character to marry. And the trip to New York that she won from Michelle entering her recipe? Fiction, I know, but shouldn't LISA be the one to accompany Hannah on this trip? Guess the next book will be set in NYC. I'll keep reading the series just to see where it ends. The ridiculousness is still entertaining. Oh, I just realized I didn't mention the murder at all. That's a clue as to how big a role it plays in this latest installment.
