Review: Book 2 in the Rosato & Associates series and we finally meet it's namesake, Bennie Rosato. Bennie is smart, brash and I loved her. Bennie is accused of murdering her ex-boyfriend and business partner who just notified her that he was ending their business relationship. Bennie goes on the run and tries to clear her name. This was a fun, popcorn type read that you will enjoy if you don't take it too seriously. There was a side plot involving a kitten that should have been left out entirely. 

Overall, fun read. 

Grade: 3.5/5
