    About this audiobook

    After capturing the notorious Fort Worth "Tunabomber," Megan and Brigit are practically celebrities. Which is why the police chief lassoed them into doing rodeo duty-mostly as a public relations stunt for the department. Megan's not a fan of calf roping, bull riding, or goat milking contests. But when a thief appears to be working the circuit, her trusty K-9 partner starts sniffing for clues . . .

    The culprit is "Robin Hood," a young Texas golddigger who steals from the rich to give to the poor-namely, herself. With Brigit hot on the trail, Megan has to juggle her on-again off-again reputation in the FWPD with her on-again off-again relationship with sexy bomb-squader Seth Rutledge. This time, Megan is determined to rope in her suspect and her man . . . before chaos, and/or her trusted furry partner, is unleashed.

    • 4/5
      1/2 star added because I know the author can write and write well. This one just isn't her best example. Definitely a series sophomore slump, in spite of an interesting crime plot and an intelligent MC who isn't TSTL. Megan and her K9 partner, Brigit are assigned to the local rodeo and stock show to patrol and garner some good PR for the police department. An escalating string of thefts gives Megan a chance to gain more experience before she's eligible for detective. She's also got some romance issues that are keeping her hopping. Even by my rather wide and tolerant definition, this is not best described as a cozy: I don't remember a lot of profanity, but there is a lot of crude and suggestive dialogue that would drive those sensitive-natured into a fit of the vapours. The author also has a strange fascination with testicles that I'm trying hard not to think too much about. I was hesitant about the first book Paw Enforcement because it was an alternating POV between Megan and the dog, Brigit, and I don't like animal POV narratives. It also occasionally included chapters that were done from the POV of the bomber, and I typically don't like antagonist POV narratives, either. But I really liked it - the dog had mostly dog thoughts and those chapters were short, and the bomber's POV was used sparingly and just enough to ratchet up a bit of tension without giving anything away. None of that was the case in Paw and Order: too much narrative from the dog, with the dog having more human thoughts than dog ones; I'm pretty sure, too, that a police K9 would be MUCH better trained to behave herself that Brigit. The antagonists POV was used WAY too much and there was never any mystery about who she was. I could easily see someone who'd never read Ms. Kelly's other work DNF'ing this one because they couldn't get past the metaphor abuse in the first 25% of the book. If I noticed it, it was over-used. The publisher has this one at 368 pages, and I suspect around 30 pages of that could have been eliminated by editing out a lot of the repetition (I didn't care about "Robin Hood"'s unfair life the first 3 times I read about it; I really didn't care after the tenth and don't get me started on Megan's self-inflicted romance angst.) Speaking of romance, what the flip was going on with Megan's love life? The whole cockamamie thing was just asinine. I really like Seth, true, but the whole thing was just utterly pointless unless Ms. Kelly wanted me to think Megan needed to be hit over the head with her own baton. Her behaviour was juvenile and inconsistent; thankfully, it appears to be short-lived as well, as it seems all is resolved by the end of the book. I highly recommend Diane Kelly's Tara Holloway series: it's fun, intelligent and well-written. I'd recommend the first book in this series, too: Paw Enforcement, but I'm going to wait and read the 3rd book coming out this summer before I make an further decision about this series. This one just wasn't as good as I know it could have been.

      3.5/5 stars. The heroes of the "tunabomber" case, Megan and Brigit, are sent to patrol the rodeo and do some publicity. There they stumble onto a thief and won't let the case go.

      The villain pov chapters in this one don't hide the thief's identity, because since Megan doesn't know her there'd be no point. Instead they give us a look into the thief's mind, and really humanize her. This was a great way to change things up from the first book while still maintaining the format.

      There's no junk tasering in this book, but there's a lot of rodeo and farm humor, and quite a bit of Bridget being great. This series is fun; I like it. (Provided by publisher)
    • 4/5
      Paw and Order by Diane Kelly is a delightful and funny book. It is the second book in the Paw Enforcement series. Megan Luz and her very smart K-9 partner, Brigit are off for adventures at the rodeo. Megan and Brigit are local celebrities after solving the “Tunabomber” case from Paw Enforcement (the first book in the series). Megan needs to solve a series of escalating robberies that are happening at the rodeo, deal with romantic issues, and try to keep Brigit out of her shoe closet. I truly enjoyed this book with its humor (especially Brigit’s thoughts), romance, and mystery. There is foul language in this book (not excessive). I enjoyed this book and look forward the next book in this series. I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley/Publisher in exchange for an honest review.
    • 4/5
      I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an unbiased review. It is the second book in a series about a single policewoman and her police dog partner. It is a cute fast read and I really enjoyed it. The plot was a bit predicable, but I enjoyed the mystery as well as the main character's personal issues. I will be purchasing the first one and looking forward to a third book in this series.
