I found this book fun and engaging. I liked the characters, enjoyed the interaction between them and cheered on Sasha in her quest for the missing hooker. To be honest, I wanted to have a Gin & Tonic with her (Sasha). I found the dialog snappy, the action fast paced and the story-line was not something that I had read a thousand times before. Sasha reminds me of Stephanie Plum - one of my all-time favorite modern-day fictional characters - although Sasha is not so much of a disaster magnet.

Although the story-line focused on the sex-trade, I did not find it raunchy or gratuitous, rather when mentioned it was in a matter-of-fact manner and handled tastefully. The romance element was there but it was not the whole focus of the book.

All in all this was a great effort by an indie author whose books I look forward to reading more of.

Christine Arvaisais has hired Sasha Jackson to find out who killed Gordon Hanes. He was Christine's ex-fiance and yes he dumped her but she didn’t kill him, and was tired of being looked at “differently” by her social set.
A mystery by Canadian-born auhor Jill Eddmondson, this is book 1 of the series set in Toronto Ontario.

Blood and Groom was pretty good, particularly for a debut novel - it felt a bit forced in the beginning, but improved, and the mystery itself was quite interesting, although I didn't entirely warm to the main character. I definitely enjoyed the Toronto setting. I plan to read the next in the series, to see how it develops.
