Never Say Sty by Linda O. Johnston

Pages: 295
Genre: mystery
Grade: B-
Reason for reading: review for MyShelf
Blurb (from back cover): Wealthy dreamboat and pet-supply magnate Dante DeFrancisco thinks Kendra's the cat's pajamas. So one of his conditions-before he signs on as producer of her new reality show, Animal Auditions-is that she dine with him. The meal is delicious, the kiss is steamy...so why does Kendra have a hunch Dante's up to something?
"Meanwhile, on Animal Auditions: Potbellied pigs are to be judged by a panel. But things screech to a halt when a nasty judge is found strangled to death by a pig harness. The suspects include Kendra's cop friend, Ned, his sister...and Dante. For their sake-and that of the show-Kendra must work like a dog to clear their names. If only Dante didn't make such a sexy suspect..."
Opinion: Not as strong as previous Johnston novels but still entertaining. For a more complete review, please check out MyShelf in the upcoming months.
