Shenanigans Kindle Edition

by Gail Koger (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.7 out of 5 stars 501 ratings
Kandi Cain inherited her Dr. Doolittle abilities from her grandmother and became a psychic pet detective. To her dismay, she just acquired the power to communicate with the spirit world, but dead people give her the willies.

Just when Kandi thought her life couldn’t get more complicated, the neighbor from hell moved in next door. The nasty guy’s name is Dutch Callaghan. How can someone so gorgeous be such a dick? Kandi could chalk some of it up to his job. Dutch is a Phoenix PD homicide cop.

Kandi’s current case is rescuing a Yorkie from a brutal dog fighting ring. Little does she know her dog napping suspect is involved in a series of brutal murders. Disguised as an elderly nun, Kandi rescues the Yorkie and, in the process, blows the hell out of Dutch’s undercover operation.

Kandi now finds herself a person of interest in her client’s murder and her sexy-as-hell, pain-in-the-butt neighbor is in hot pursuit of the Ninja Nun. Is Dutch about to slap the cuffs on? Only time will tell.

About the Author

How do I come up with my stories? Being psychotic helps. I was a 9-1-1 dispatcher for way too long. All those years of wild requests, screwy questions, bizarre behavior and outrageous demands have left me with a permanent twitch and an uncontrollable craving for chocolate.

I was a 9-1-1 dispatcher and to keep insanity at bay, I took up writing. Not to worry. The insanity isn't catching - much. Other than the addiction to chocolate and the twitch in my left eye, I'm good.

    Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2018

    Shenanigans is fast paced, hysterically funny and full of twists and turns. Kandi's control of and use of critters is nothing short of hilarious. The scenes of her talking with Tinkerbell are just genus. The Shenanigans she gets up to are pure fun. Her mother is a kook and her father is downright scary, but they love her and will do anything to protect her. She and Dutch started off as antagonists, but are starting to fall for each other. The byplay between them is funny and a budding romance is developing. If you don't want people looking at you like you have lost your mind, don't read this in public. (You will be giggling uncontrollably)

    The book ends with a sort of cliffhanger, so we are left wondering what will happen next. We will have to wait (NOT VERY PATIENTLY) for the next book.

    Gail Koger does it once again. What exactly does she do? She writes wacky, bizarre, funny, delightful, craziness with fabulous characters that you’ve never seen before. Stories so good that you’ll want to read them many times.
    Shenanigans is a superb addition to her playful madness.
    This book is not sci-fi. Instead, it is a paranormal earth story that I absolutely adore. Honestly, it’s my favorite so far. And there is a book 2 coming. I CANNOT WAIT!!!
    Shenanigans is about a young, smart-ass woman, named Kandi Cain, who can talk to animals. Given her talents, naturally, she opens a Pet Detective Agency. Her father is former mafia, her mother thinks she’s an elf and celebrates Christmas every day.
    Kandi starts out disliking her new neighbor because he’s a jerk, obnoxious, and a cop. (The latter being a potential problem, given everything Kandi does is not entirely legal.)
    It doesn’t take long for the two to clash into serious trouble while each tries to do their job. And as much as I love Kandi, I warmed to Dutch, the bad-ass cop, soon as well. While intent upon arresting Kandi, he discovers much that he likes about her. She is adorable, what with talking to animals, and having pigeons and chickens poop on people whom she doesn’t like. If you have a sense of humor, then YOU MUST READ THIS BOOK.
    If you don’t have a sense of humor, best move on...

    Verified Purchase
    OH. MY. GOSH."!!! I laughed 😂 soooo hard while reading this book!! Shenanigans is "DEFINITELY" the best title for this book.....because the characters certainly get involved in some "interesting" situations 😏, especially the main female character Kandi Cain who has some "special gifts"!! I would love to have gifts like that! Dutch Callaghan, the main male character, is a police detective who won't leave her alone! 😏😉 I can't say why because that would kinda spoil things for those of you who haven't read this book yet! Shenanigans has a good storyline, is entertaining and full of interesting and quirky characters!! Definitely worth reading and worthy of a 5 🌟 rating! So if you like that type of book then I highly recommend reading Shenanigans!

    Although this was not a sexy time read it was fun read. Only reason it got 4 stars instead of 5 was that Dutch changed his tune a little to fast for me. If you are looking for your typical raw sex, macho alpha shifter bad boy type book don’t get this book, but if you are looking for a hilarious whacked out characters and insta-love, with strange setting , go for this book. You will get a great laugh as this book is so different from the others this writer has done, but has the same wit, spunk, and humor as her other books. Can’t wait for the next book.

    Love this author. When I saw the notice on the release, I got the book. And stayed up till wee hrs reading, laughing, enjoying, reading. This is about a physic pet detective (that is not the funny part) and the mayhem that ensues as she seeks to find missing pets (that’s not the funny part) all while dodging the ever so sexy detective neighbor. Her friends, her Ex mafia enforcer dad, her Christmas loving mom, her mortician friend, dressing up in costumes, getting animals to do weird stuff. This is so funny, wonderful and worth every minute of sleep I am missing. It is well written and will leave you with a smile albeit sad cause it’s ending. Wish I could read book two right now. Loved it.

    This book was great. Loved the heroine, hero was seriously interesting and who could forget the immortal line ‘shit em’. My only complaint was that I enjoyed it too much, really didn’t want it to end. That said, I note a sequel may be in the works so - there’s that.

    Reviewed in Australia on May 21, 2018

    I enjoyed this book. It was interesting and chuckle worthy, but I would like to make a few suggestions for the sequel/s.
    1. The cover is misleading and I nearly didn’t buy the book due to it. This is a romantic comedy, not a brooding sex drama (seriously, there were NO sexy shenanigans, people). Decent rom/com’s are rare, so advertise it! (check out the cover of Becoming A Vincent - so unusual to see a smile).
    2. The annoying sidekick, a small yappy dog, is really... annoying. I look forward to the tigers in the sequel. I wonder what big cats think?
    3. The leading characters had no flaws (ok, he had trust issues, which we barely saw). Heaven save me from angst, but people are more interesting and likeable with imperfections.
    I did enjoy the interactions between the love interests. Thanks for an amusing read. I will be looking out for the sequel
