The Life & Dysfunction of Nadine Daniels
by
Hadena James
About the book . . .
Nadine Daniels’ life is a disaster. The security company that she owns is being sued, her mother is coming to visit for a week, and some unpleasant realities about her “charity” work are about to surface. She thought this was as bad as it could get, but she was wrong—dead wrong.
Someone believes she knows a secret – a secret worth killing for. With assassins tracking her every move, Nadine wishes the only thing she had to worry about was her mother pestering her to settle down with her suspected live-in boyfriend, Zeke, but she can’t think about the future when the present might end with her death.

Reader Review . . .
Someone believes that Nadine knows something worth killing for, and her mother believes she's married. Nadine doesn't know what the would-be assassin is after, and no one wants to set her mother straight. And her troubles are just beginning....
The pace of this book is fast, really fast. This is not a book for those who are easily distracted or easily confused. There is no real back story, so for the first couple of chapters, I was in the dark as to what was happening and why. When the humor picked up, I found that I really didn't care about all the details. The story is just laugh-out-loud funny at points. At times, it seemed as though there were too many characters. Truthfully, I had trouble keeping some of them sorted out from one another.
A fun thriller/mystery with some strong language and violence.
3.5 stars
