My Review:
I am just now stepping into the Crimes of Fashion series with DEATH ON HEELS (which is book 8) and I absolutely loved this book. Lacey is back in her old town; Sagebrush, Colorado to solve a crime.  This may not appear to be a very big deal since Lacey has solved many crimes using her fashion knowhow, but to Lacey it is everything.   Lacey must face the past to save her ex- boyfriend, Cole, from going to jail for murders Lacey knows he did not commit.

Lacey decides as a news reporter and as Cole's ex, she needs to get to the bottom of what is going on.  Lacey and her crazy cast of characters get into a lot of shenanigans throughout this delightful whodunit.  There is action, suspense, a touch of romance and a lot of great dialogue. Lacey's "Fashion Bites" are a cute and humorous addition that I very much enjoyed.  I feel like I would be doing myself a disservice if I did not start at the beginning of this series and see where Lacey came from.  I recommend this book and rate it 4 stars.
