I recieved a free eARC of this book. Thank you for the opportunity to read it.

Laurien Berenson is one of my favorite cozy mystery authors. This book is the second in a spin off series from her Melanie Travis dog mysteries, focusing on Peg, the widowed dog show judge and poodle breeder, who features heavily in the Melanie Travis series, and Rose, a former nun who, along with her husband, runs a women's shelter. It would not be necessary to read earlier books to enjoy this series,but the background would be helpful

When Rose decides to sign Peg up for a dating service for senior adults, she had only the best intentions in mind, however, when Peg's date is killed suddenly, the two sisters try to figure out what happened. Like the earlier Peg and Rose book, a lot of the humor and conflict comes in the difference between two sisters who are both alike...and different. The mystery progresses at a satisfactory place and comes to a logical conclusion,

There are some minor mentions of sexual relationships between consentual adults, with no graphic content. This book would be appropriate for teen/YA readers who enjoy mysteries. The adult protagonists and setting may be less relatable to teen readers, but those who have read the Melanie Travis books, especially, will likely find it enjoyable.

Peg and Rose Stir Up Trouble is another fabulous story by a favorite author.
We all know Peg from the Melanie Travis mysteries, and Rose is her sister in law.
Peg and Rose are headed into another murder investigation, and this one is personal. A potential suitor for Peg is the victim of a hit and run, and when Peg learns the horrible truth about him, she isn't surprised by the long list of suspects.
Rose takes the lead in this investigation and surprises and impresses Peg with her investigative skills.

This is a great story and I hope others enjoy it as much as I did.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for selecting me to read an advanced copy of the book.

Peg and Rose team up again to find a killer. When Rose sets up Peg with online dating, she meets Nolan, a handsome and charismatic older man who seems perfect. When he is run over by a car in a hit and run, the odds are it was not an accident. Enjoyed this one, and like the banter and growing relationship of the sisters-in-law. This is book two, and one I truly enjoyed. Would recommend.
