Review: A Life Less Extraordinary

A Life Less Extraordinary A Life Less Extraordinary by Mary Frame
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Part 2.

Charlotte and her little sister Paige are living in Castle Cove, house and shop sitting while their new owner Ruby is on a yoga retreat. The daughters of con artists Charlotte and Paige are running away and trying to go straight. Unfortunately, almost from their first day Charlotte told a little white lie and now the whole town thinks she is Ruby and she's psychic!

In book one we were introduced to practically the only under 50s in the whole town. Tabby and Troy,
who are twins: Tabby runs the local hardware store and Troy is a cop. Eleanor the librarian, Ben the barman and Jared the Deputy Sheriff. Charlotte/Ruby uses her psychic 'powers' to help the local police solve crimes, in reality she owes her success to a few mini-cams she planted in public places and a good memory.

In this latest installment a new criminal is targeting Castle Cove, breaking into homes and playing practical jokes like hiding kitchen utensils in the freezer or tying jumper sleeves together. Alongside the secret prankster is something more sinister, cryptic gifts and notes from Charlotte and Paige's parents - have they been caught already?

As the love lives of the under 50s become more complicated Charlotte is torn between the life she wants and hiding from her parents.

Loved this, loving this series, can't wait for the final installment.
