Temporarily Insane
by Vicki Batman
GENRE:
romantic comedy mystery

Picture
No man. Bad job. And Murder. Hattie Cooks is still searching for her dream job and one might be available...in the Big Apple, far from friends, family, and Allan Wellborn, the man who still makes her heart race. In the meantime, she finds temporary employment at an accounting firm where two auditor friends turn up dead.
Detective Allan Wellborn dropped Hattie for Blonde Bimbo who, coincidentally, is employed at NLB where fishy things are taking place. When Allan interviews Hattie, he must determine why all signs point to her as a suspect.
Can Hattie discover why Allan dumped her and who is murdering auditors before death strikes again?
Picture
​“We need to cover the ground rules.”
“Ground rules?” His brow vee-ed. “Is this normal?”
“Absolutely.” I nodded. “The ground rules are: No kissing. No hugging. No whispering lovey-dovey stuff in my ear. No nothing. Understand?”
“I understand, but I thought people in love do this.”
“Let’s set the record straight right now—we are not in love. And here’s another rule: don’t speak to anyone.”
“Don’t talk to anyone—why not?”
Noticing the bizarre look on his face, I relented. “Okay, you can talk. Just say one sentence.”
“Is this a weird family thing?”
“Nope. It’s a Hattie-who-is-being-nice thing.”

Rules... I like the no talking one. Auditors? This sounds like a hoot.

I had some fun making these up, Brenda. And yes, auditors. I do have to say some of the most handsome men I dated were auditors, and even married one. Definitely not geeky except for the whitey tighties. LOLOL

Thank you, Eva! (BTW, I had a family member with the same first name.) It's pretty much mayhem and fun.

Hi, Victoria! As you can see, my name is short for your name; however, I was never a Victoria. And in school there were several of us--Vickie, Vicky, Vikki. LOL

Hi, Clojo! Oooh, I'll take witty writer. Thank you. Every now and then, my parents said some funny things, but they were mostly trying to keep four daughters in line. LOL.

I love a good romantic comedy and know that love is always temporary insanity!

Hi, Paige! You know, when I first began writing, I floundered around like a flounder when trying to figure out what genre I wrote in. In fact, a famous author asked me and I couldn't answer. (Psst, she was a little mean about it, too.) Gradually, I found my place and am happy with romantic comedy mysteries and short stories. The more fun, the merrier!
