Easy Like Sunday Mourning: (A Cozy Mystery Romance) (A Page Turners Novel Book 2) Kindle Edition

4.2 out of 5 stars 1,086 ratings

Single mom Maggie Hayes puts up a tough front to hide her loneliness, spending her days in the courtroom as a lawyer and her evenings as a closet video gamer. Another heartache isn’t worth the risk, not after her husband left her last year for a Hooters waitress. When she decides to try dating again, a cute video game-designing nerd seems like a safe bet….Until he becomes the prime suspect in a murder.
Jeremy Rogers makes a good living designing video games, but nothing prepares him for the real world adventure of being accused of poisoning his own employee. Add in falling for a sassy attorney with a competitive ex-husband, a clingy blonde coworker, and a mammoth-size dog that eats his furniture. Suddenly fighting off a screen full of zombies or preventing an alien invasion seems like child’s play.
Maggie and Jeremy find themselves embroiled in a game of death threats, lies, and betrayal. Maggie must learn to trust again while playing the most dangerous game of all. Because defeat could mean not only losing her heart, but also her life…
Women of all ages will enjoy this tale of humorous, women's fiction, mixed with a touch of cozy mystery in this small town love story.

    Absolutely loved this book, it was a little bit of mystery, who dunnit and humour. I found the characters hilarious and loved Edna the most. Maggie is a lawyer, mother and divorcee and this story is based around her life and her new boyfriend, Jeremy, and a murder at his office in the company he owns. The story keeps you guessing to the end, one minute I thought he was guilty the next someone else from within the office so for that reason alone I gave it 5 stars as so often these types of books are so obvious but not this one.
    A great read and will be reading more from Jennie marts in the future.

    An easy to read book, with some twists and fun characters. The writer keeps you guessing about the ending, keeping an air of mystery between the hope and wonder of happy ever after or the cynical belief of no such thing.

    Inhalt:
    Im Leben der alleinerziehenden Anwältin Maggie läuft es zum ersten Mal seit ihrer Scheidung endlich wieder richtig gut – dachte sie zumindest. Denn ihr neuer Freund, der selbstständige Computerspiele-Programmierer, Jeremy wird verdächtigt einen seiner Angestellten vergiftet zu haben, dieser wurde nämlich tot an seinem Arbeitsplatz in Jeremys Firma aufgefunden. Außerdem ist eine von Jeremys Mitarbeiterinnen auf einmal sehr anhänglich und Jeremy und Maggie werden bedroht. Und als wären das noch nicht genug Komplikationen für das noch junge Liebesglück der beiden, steht auf einmal auch noch Maggies Ex Mann wieder vor ihrer Tür...

    Meinung:
    Zurück bei den Page Turners, einem Buchclub aus Colorado, geht es genauso spannend, lustig und romantisch wie schon im ersten Band der Reihe „Another Saturday Night and I Ain’t Got No Body“ weiter. Diesmal stehen die taffe Anwältin Maggie und ihr neuer Freund, der Computerspiele-Programmierer, Jeremy im Fokus. Und die beiden sind trotz aller Widrigkeiten so ein unglaublich tolles Paar.

    Nach außen gibt sich Maggie als stark und unabhängig, was sie auch zweifelsohne ist, aber die Scheidung von ihrem Mann, der sie mit einer jüngeren Frau betrogen hat, hat sie trotzdem tief getroffen. Das möchte sie sich aber natürlich nach Möglichkeit nicht anmerken lassen, schon allein wegen ihren beiden Jungs. Aufgrund dieser herben Enttäuschung entwickelt sich ihre Beziehung zu Jeremy, den sie bereits im vorherigen Buch kennengelernt hat, nur langsam. Sympathisch fand sie ihn zunächst aufgrund ihrer gemeinsamen Leidenschaft: dem Computer spielen, was Maggie natürlich nur heimlich tut, immerhin ist sie eine Mutter und Anwältin ;-) Langsam entwickelt sich daraus aber Liebe und sie vertraut Jeremy, weshalb sie ihn auch nicht für einen Mörder hält.

    Jeremy ist so unglaublich süß und kann sein Glück kaum fassen, dass Maggie einen Nerd wie ihn tatsächlich mag. Der Vorfall in seiner Firma macht ihm natürlich zu schaffen, aber vor allem sorgt er sich deswegen um Maggie. Dass er ein guter Kerl ist, zeigt sich auch daran, dass er Chewie, den Hund seines verstorbenen Mitarbeiters, der diesem unglaublich viel bedeutete, ohne zu zögern bei sich aufnimmt.

    Auch die anderen Page Turners sind natürlich wieder mit dabei, wie z. B. Sunny, die im ersten Teil der Reihe die Hauptrolle spielte, sowie ihr Liebster Jake, welcher natürlich auch bei der Auflösung des Falles behilflich ist.
    Edna ist mal wieder in Höchstform, deshalb habe ich mich auch sehr gefreut als ich gelesen habe, dass der nächste Band der Reihe „Just Another Maniac Monday“ Ednas Geschichte erzählt.

    Page Turners Reihe:
    Band 1 (Sunny): Another Saturday Night and I Ain’t Got No Body
    Band 2 (Maggie): Easy Like Sunday Mourning
    Band 3 (Edna): Just Another Maniac Monday
    Band 4 (Zoey): Tangled Up In Tuesday

    Fazit:
    So stelle ich mir eine gute Fortsetzung vor! Jennie Marts schreibt wirklich super amüsante und sehr empfehlenswerte Bücher. Deshalb kann ich es kaum erwarten, auch die noch die folgenden Teile der Page Turners Reihe zu lesen.

    Maggie Hayes, divorced mother of two, is just beginning to dip her toe back into the relationship pool. As a closet video gamer, she is delighted when she meets Jeremy Rogers, owner of the video game production company that designed her favorite game. After dating for a few months, Maggie can feel her defenses relaxing, and she realizes just how much she cares for Jeremy. When Jeremy’s employee is murdered, and he becomes a person of interest, Maggie and her friends start their own investigation. They’re determined to clear Jeremy and find the real killer.

    Easy Like Sunday Mourning by Jennie Marts is the second book of her Page Turners Novels. It is such an enjoyable read. All the members of the Page Turners book club that were introduced in the first book are back. What a great cast! The women in this book club are such good friends. They are funny, fun, and very loyal to one another. Although this book is more romance than mystery, the mystery is solidly crafted. I loved the humor and chuckled my way right through to the end. These characters are just so appealing—I found I didn’t want to put this book down and read it in one sitting.

    Now, I am hoping the author reads this review because I have a request. I’m getting quite attached to Officer McCarthy and would love to see
    Ms. Marts find someone special for him. (Can’t hurt to ask, right? LOL) I’m looking forward to reading Book 3. If romantic comedy is your thing, give this book a try. Happy reading!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Both a murder mystery and a romantic disaster novel
    Reviewed in the United States on 24 February 2015
    Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase
    Wonderful loveable and bumbling cast of characters in this amazing second installment of the Page Turners cozy mysteries.

    Maggie was married, although you do get the single mother vibe from her.
    Before her husband left her for a Hooters waitress, he was self absorbed.
    His family, wife and two sons, was convenient only to show how "successful" he was.
    Maggie is beautiful and intelligent and still not quite over the anger of being left for a "newer model"
    when her ex decides he wants to move back in - and make moves on Maggie as well.

    Maggie has a wonderful eclectic group of friends of various ages, from teen to senior citizen.
    They, and their husbands, are all called upon to help when Maggie's recent boyfriend (she doesn't care for that term at her age) becomes the suspect in an employee's death at his video game design company.
    The eveidence seems damning and even Maggie, who happens to be a lawyer, begins to doubt how well she knows
    her new beau, Jeremy.
    A buxoumous blonde, who is also Jeremy's employee, does nothing to make Maggie feel any better.

    This is both a murder mystery and a romantic disaster novel. There is no shorttage of handsome men.
    Maggie seems to catch all of their attention.
    Also included is automotive adventure - road rage and kidnapping, life threatening stuff.
    One of my favorite sections was a road trip to Comic-Con. And of course Chewie, not the Star Wars one.
