3.5 rounded to 4. I enjoyed this one! Not as much as the first though. It was light hearted and easy to read but a little long for the story. I’ll still continue on with the series.

This talented author has written a quickly moving story with quirky characters…love and romance, along with family,y and friends keep us intrigued with this page turner…thanks to the author for an afternoon of entertainment…thanks Netgalley.

This series is so much fun!
You definitely need to start this series with book 1 because this one picks up where we left off with Riley and crew. The characters have enjoyable engagement with each other. In this installment we also meet Riley’s grandmother -who is a formidable woman. The story includes lots of comical hijinks and great banter. I’m hooked on this series and ready to read the next book!

lol Lucy never disappoints. She somehow manages to make murder funny and romcom-ish. That’s a talent right there yall. Nick and Riley are the best and I love how they work together. Seeing drunk Nick was cute too.

Love these characters so much!! This series is hilarious and so relatable even though filled with some mystery and supernatural elements. Absolutely love NICK and all the roommates!! Looking forward to the next one!!

Thank you so much to Netgalley and Sourcebooks for an eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

The second in the Riley Thorn series finds Riley and Nick navigating both working for Nick's PI company, an office move, and living with a bunch of geriatric nosey roommates.

It's an enjoyable, if not forgettable addition to the series. I still plan on reading the third, but this one felt like a sophomore slump. Most of it was non action, the 'quirky' character traits were just increased to 10 so they became downright annoying, and it read more as a buddy cop movie than a cozy mystery OR romance. Actually, it should be noted there is literally no romance in this one. At least in book one you had the will they, won't they of it all- this one was just them trying to get 2 minutes to have an actual conversation. Neither the police, Riley or Nick were anywhere near finding out who the murder was so the end played out like dumb luck.

It was entertaining enough but it left me wanting. Here's hoping book 3 finally brings this series up to its potential.

Another laugh out loud cozy with Riley, Nick, and their wacky group of elderly roommates. Riley is using her unstable psychic powers to help the police solve a murder while also helping Nick with a missing person case, and dealing with her domineering grandma who is determined for Riley to take her psychic powers seriously.

I liked this one much better than the first one; it was more concise and not nearly as long. I laughed more in this one as well. I think the series has hit its stride and has a perfect balance of the investigation, humor, and the slapstick antics (although I would not be upset if there was a little less of this). Looking forward to diving into the next one soon.

If you’re in the mood for a romantic and wacky murder mystery, you may enjoy this.

This is one of my favorite series!! I have loved all of Lucy’s books. Very well written and you can’t help but laugh and love these characters!!

Nick and Riley are always fun and I love the mystery! I hope this story continues with the roommates and their humor!

What a fun, light read with all the adventure of a Romance and Cozy Mystery combined!

I really enjoyed the continued relationship with Riley and Nick. Of course the investigation Riley embarks on is chock full of characters including continued intrusions from roommates, family, friends and more. Riley's grandmother reminds me a lot of my own. This witty paranormal read will make you laugh while you turn page by page.

Thank you to SOURCEBOOKS Bloom Books | Bloom Books and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.

Lucy just has a way of telling a story that is so enjoyable. There were so many funny moments in this book. Nick and Riley together are just 🤌🏻

I love this series! I went back and read the first book in the group so I could jump right in to this one and know what was going on. Riley and Nick are a fun couple. Riley is a psychic who is struggling to embrace her gift. Nick is a bad boy who is just figuring out he does want a real girlfriend. They are surrounded by their wacky octogenarian roommates and friends and family. Hilarity ensues! I laughed so much throughout both of these first two books. I highly recommend this book and the series for anyone who wants to have an excellent story with lots of real laughter with a side of commentary about mean people on Social Media.

Thanks NetGalley and That’s What She Said publishing!

loved this romance and how the characters were able to figure things out and find their way to love. Loved the friends .

another amazing story from Lucy Score!!! I loved the first in this series, and I loved the connected sequel, with more of Nick & Riley’s story!!! I haven’t read many mystery romances, but if anyone can get me hooked it’s Lucy Score! this series, and this book, is so fun, mysterious, steamy, lovely, and just so funny. I can’t wait to read the last in the series next! thank you so much for the arc :)

4.5 stars.

Yay we're back with Riley & Nick and the gang of shenanigans! Now we're onto a new case with Detective Weber needing Riley's assistance, but this time around Riley's grandmother is here to yell at her while she does so.

Riley's grandma, a very scary Stevie Nicks, doesn't believe that she, or the other woman in their family, are taking their abilities seriously. Setting up bootcamps, performances that are televised, and a slew of other things, she's driving Riley and her mom absolutely bonkers. Riley has so many big things going on right now and all she wants is to solve this case and spend time with Nick. But the universe has other things in mind.

I really enjoyed this one again because I love all of Riley's neighbors. Fred, Willicott, Lucy, and more are so freaking funny. Their antics stress me out and also endear me to them every time. I can't wait to see what they do in book three!

Thank you to NetGalley for granting this ARC, super good and fast read. The story was intruiging and the characters had an interesting back story.

This was a fun read. Nick and Riley are so cute together. There are so many side characters with lots of personality that sometimes it feels overwhelming but they are always absolutely hilarious.

Thank you NetGalley for this book in exchange for an honest review. I adore Lucy Score’s writing. She has a way of entrapping you in her books and giving you more than you asked for, this book is no exception. Following Riley and Nick on another adventure you’ll fall even more in love with these characters

I am so sad to say this about a Lucy Score book, but I wasn’t enjoying myself which sucks.
I loved the Knockemout series! Imm not sure if its because I didn’t read the first book first but I heard you could read these on their own. I couldn’t get myself to keep reading it. I kept putting it down and going to other books. The banter was funny per usual but thats all.
