From the back cover:
“Wisecracking pen-for-hire Jaine Austen is back – and she’s about to discover that working on the set of a Hollywood sitcom is no laughing matter…
Jaine still hasn’t found a good man – or a way to keep all those sugary snacks from going straight to her hips. But – with a little help from her best friend Kandi – she’s finally landed a gig as a sitcom writer! True, Muffy ‘n Me isn’t going to win any Emmys, but for Jaine, being on staff sure beats writing boring brochures and bad resumes. Until the plot thickens – with murder…
Jaine figures the trouble all started when Muffy ‘n Me’s hottest star, gorgeous Quinn Kirkland, seduced the head writer – whose husband also works on the show. But when Quinn’s caught in bed with the barely-legal actress who plays his niece, things really heat up – and his many jealous girlfriends start to figure things out…
So when the no-good heartthrob drops dead after nibbling a poisoned doughnut, Jaine isn’t terribly surprised. But who could have done it? A competitive co-star and a couple of scorned lovers top Jaine’s list of suspects, but the police have zeroed in on her man-crazy pal Kandi. Now Jaine has to figure out who finally stopped Quinn’s cheatin’ heart – before her best friend ends up behind bars…”
MY REVIEW:
I loved this second installment in the Jaine Austen series! I really enjoy Jaine’s wisecracks and witty humor. It is a really fast read that had me laughing and trying to figure out whodunit right along with Jaine. Also, the subplot with her parents is a hoot! This is a light, fun read and I will definitely be continuing this series!

I just rec'd this from Paperback Swap. I enjoyed the first one. Thanks for the review. Another book for me to move up on my TBR pile. =)
I absolutely love this series. The emails with her parents are always great. I agree with your review!
