Book Review: A Bad Day For Sunshine by Darynda Jones

Sheriff Sunshine Vicram finds her cup o’ joe more than half full when the small village of Del Sol, New Mexico, becomes the center of national attention for a kidnapper on the loose.

Del Sol, New Mexico is known for three things: its fry-an-egg-on-the-cement summers, its strong cups of coffee—and a nationwide manhunt? Del Sol native Sunshine Vicram has returned to town as the elected sheriff—an election her adorably meddlesome parents entered her in—and she expects her biggest crime wave to involve an elderly flasher named Doug. But a teenage girl is missing, a kidnapper is on the loose, and all of it's reminding Sunny why she left Del Sol in the first place. Add to that trouble at her daughter’s new school and a kidnapped prized rooster named Puff Daddy, and Sunshine has her hands full.

Enter sexy almost-old-flame Levi Ravinder and a hunky US Marshall, both elevens on a scale of one to blazing inferno, and the normally savvy sheriff is quickly in over her head. Now it’s up to Sunshine to juggle a few good hunky men, a not-so-nice kidnapping miscreant, and Doug the ever-pesky flasher. And they said coming home would be drama-free.

A Bad Day for Sunshine by Darynda Jones

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sunshine Vicram is the sheriff in Del Sol, New Mexico. Sunshine had moved away but somehow her name was put in for Sheriff and she won. US Marshal, Levi Ravinder, is also helping find out what is going on in town. These 2 have a past and he is so hunky that her thoughts go elsewhere.
This is the first book in this series and I can not wait to read the rest. You get to meet everyone in this town so there are a lot of characters but is easy to follow. I found this a fun and quirky read.
I received this from NetGalley for review.
