Just when I think Shelby Nichols has done everything she could possibly do, she finds herself in more and more trouble!There is so much going on in this book, I didn't want to put it down until I was finished. It is so fast paced and engrossing. It's one twist after another and you wouldn't believe some of the things going on! Thanks to Shelby's "insights," Dimples is able to close a case that he has been working on since while she was in Paris and another cold case that she stumbled onto. See w...

I just love this series, it's just so entertaining with lots going on as usual. Shelby is such a great character, although so are all the other characters.This time Shelby is involved with Uncle Joey and missing diamonds, murder, the Russian mob, and trying to figure out who the skeletons are of the children found under a house Shelby was hoping to buy, along with a murder she's helping solve with Dimples, aka Detective Harris, for the police. As usual it's all going on, including Shelby being k...

Best Series EVER!Another great Shelby Nichols book. Thanks Colleen. Love that Miguel has a passion of his own. Great bringing the kids together, but as Shelby is wondering...will this put hers in more danger. Who knows? You’ve got this Colleen Helm. Thanks for your continued series.

I just love Shelby. She's a light personality that's fun to listen to. She makes me smile with the goofy things she does or says to lighten the moment. I am also drooling over Ramos, Uncle Joey's guard, and Chris, Shelby's husband. Oh man. These two men are amazing! And as much as they are complete opposites, I see similarities in them too. *sigh*****FULL REVIEW*****This audiobook was proved by the author, publisher, or narrator for an honest review at my request.Shelby starts Monday like any ot...

This latest adventure of Shelby Nicholas is action packed. The housewife turned PI/mob informant wastes no time getting wrapped up in three life-threatening cases while also trying to juggle buying a new house, being a bff to her recently engaged friend and a supportive big cousin to the notorious crime boss's son. - Not to mention being on time to carpool her two pretty inquisitive young teens & their friends to and from school. With all that going on, each page is pulsing with action and adven...

Meh. I've loved every Shelby book before this one. This one was boring. There were 3 mysteries and none of them were really well developed. Also, the whole she "loves her husband with all her heart", while lusting after Ramos is getting old. She's jealous of any women Chris comes in contact with. But when she kissea Ramos, or rides around on his motorcycle because she wants to be with him, it's no big deal. Nine books in I was hoping for more character growth then this. Note to authors following...

As I was reading this, and a recent trip to Paris was repeatedly brought up, I realized there was a book in the series that I had missed, so I loaded it to my Kindle and read before finishing this one. I didn't find a lot of errors in this one, so that always makes for more comfortable reading for me. On to Book 10 in the series now! I do like that these are relatively "clean" books, the worst language being, "Holy Hell!"

This series was phenomenal. Could not put any of the books down. I enjoyed getting pulled into Shelby's world . 10 books in 10 days and really wish there were more. I hope the author does not plan on ending the series anytime soon. Toward the end of a series , sometimes the content seems drawn out and is less interesting. That just is not the case with this series. I love that the stories are original and imaginative. Carrots is the book that drew me in. I fell in love with Shelby, Chris, Ramos,...

I was so in need of a Shelby fix! I went through this one too fast as that is just what happens when you get ahold of this series and now I got to wait again. *cries*Shelby and her family have just gotten back from Paris and trying to get their lives back to normal. The kids have extra homework, her husband is now a partner in his law firm, and she is just hoping for a break. Not going to happen though as the house that Shelby is wanting to move into seems to have a mystery surrounding it, her d...

This series just gets better! A fun, adventurous mystery series with a protagonist that feels like my best girlfriend. I love reading well-written mysteries that are not always predictable, and I love watching characters develop and grow over time.

~ Book generously provided by the author in exchange for my honest opinionCan you believe this is the ninth Shelby Nichols book?! Nine books and I still love this series as much as I did when I first read Carrots five years ago.I'm currently on summer break and I intended to read all my other review copies, but when Colleen offered me the chance of reading Hidden Deception I put everything else aside, grabbed some popcorn and enjoyed the show. By the way, thank you, Colleen!It always amazes me h...

Nine books in and I am more addicted than ever.It's been a year since Shelby's life was changed forever when she stopped at the grocery store for carrots, so much has happened in that year, good, bad and ugly but Shelby has weathered it all and I so admire her for that.Shelby and Chris have grown stronger as a couple which is awesome considering the strong team they have always been they are even stronger now so is their family and even though Josh and Savannah don't know their Mum can hear peop...

Reading a Shelby Nickols' series is always a groovy read, this one did not disappoint. Shelby and family just back from their adventure in France and Shelby has plenty to keep her occupy. A trouble with her son's makeup, Chris has been made a partner and with extra income, Shelby looks at a house she has always like. It has come on the market. However, while inspecting it she hears a child crying. Dimples has a problem with the diamond ring for his fiancee. He desires help with the murder of a l...

As amazing as ever!In Hidden Deception Shelby has more problems to solve than ever. In spite of her great love for her husband, she is still crushing on Ramos but then who isn't. With the mystery of her dream house tearing at her heart and danger from the Russian mafia threatening her whole family, it is a wonder that she can even think about the case the chief of police wants her to work on!

The Shelby Nichols Adventures is by far one of my favorite series and "Hidden Deception" is a prime example of why I love this series so much. The characters are the most amazing part of the series. They are multifaceted and at times you know that some of them are the bad guys, you still can't help but like them anyway.Shelby and her family have just returned from their Paris trip and her husband is attempting to settle in his new role as partner in the law firm. When Shelby drops by Uncle Joey'...

Interesting suspense, but the storyline with haunted house was cut too short.Another co-worker of h's husband with a crush on him. Shelby is bothered, but what about her intrest in Ramos? Fortunately no more kisses 🙄

This series continues to be consistently outstanding. All the characters are likeable and I look forward to each new book wondering what sort of mischief Shelby will get into this time. This book found her solving a missing child case, the murder of a lawyer and discovering how Uncle Joey’s son Miquel can sing! Some threads were left incomplete so I know the next book will probably touch on them to keep the story line going.Fantastic series and I look forward to reading many more in the future!

I loved this story and every time I think the author can't write a better story I start the next book and it proves me wrong and this was book is a hidden gem. What I love is the way Shelby has more than one case to solve as well as juggling with keeping her secret of her mind reading gift and running a home life. All the characters are so much fun and I like the way Shelby has to juggle helping the good guys and the bad guys.Uncle Joey's son is keeping secrets from his mob boss father and Joey

This series never disappointsShelby is working on multiple mysteries, again. She solved a couple of them but one lingers as she and Chris will probably get more involved later. Uncle Joey shows Shelby and everyone else that she has become more like family to him. There are some intense scenes but some fun lightheaded ones too. All of the main characters are likeable and interesting which is great going on nine books later. Chris is more understanding in this one. I really dread when I get caught...

Definitely must have and read. Helme is gifted in this genre and this installment puts the proof in the pudding, so to speak. No, I don’t do spoilers and everything I truly want to say or comment on would definitely fall under spoiler classification. Don’t miss out on this one, or any of this series for that matter. Once definitely wasn’t enough, I’m on second round of binging this whole series back to back and that is RARE for me! I know you’ll enjoy the hijinks and chaos as much as I do.
