Overview: Lacey Luzzi: Sprinkled, is a full-length, laugh-out-loud, humorous cozy mystery with a strong female protagonist in the spirit of Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum, albeit one working for the wrong side of the law…
The first six books in the series are packed in this box set.
Genre: Fiction > Mystery/Thriller
1. Sprinkled
Lacey Luzzi’s rollercoaster of a life has been filled with the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. She just never expected the lows to be so… sparkly.
After falling on her face during an attempt to follow in her recently-deceased mother’s stripper-boots, Lacey realizes she’s not cut out for life on stage. She sets out on a year-long investigation to find her true family, never expecting she’ll find it with a capital “F.”
With a rumbling stomach, a need for money (check engine lights don’t fix themselves!), and a conscience that operates at 78% on a good day, Lacey is sucked into a whirlwind of Family secrets, hard-as-cement cookies, and mysterious, sexy men who unfortunately shoot guns, sometimes aimed at her face. The long-lost-granddaughter of Carlos Luzzi, the Godfather of the Italian Mafia, Lacey accepts her first assignment for the mob: finding fifteen million dollars of ‘the good stuff.’
Even after she enlists the help of her mouthy best-friend and her cousin, a technical genius and social disaster, she finds that going toe-to-toe with the rival Russian mob is more dangerous than expected. No one chooses their Family, but Lacey Luzzi will be lucky if she can survive hers.
2. Sparkled
Lacey, Clay and Meg are back—this time headed to…a wedding?
Assignment Numero Dos for Lacey comes straight from the Godfather himself. When one of the Luzzi Family’s low-ranking associates turns up dead, Carlos believes it may be the doing of the rival Russian mob, and he orders Lacey to find the killer. But every detail about the assignment is a little too neat, a little too tidy, and a little too good to be true. Could this really be an open and shut case, complete with a confession from the murderer?
When Lacey’s pumpkin-colored, body-building cousin Joey starts making trouble at his ex-fiance’s wedding—the case starts unraveling from the inside out.
Lacey’s not sure what is worse: going face to face with a vicious murderer, ditching Auntie Nora’s attempts to fill in the “plus one” on her invite, or finding herself locked in the same hotel as the hot, unavailable, but increasingly drool-worthy Anthony. Though most family gatherings are challenging, Lacey is afraid that this glittery Family wedding might just kill her.
3. Salted
After taking a gig with her grandfather – the Don of the Italian mafia – Lacey Luzzi has been in for a wild ride. Stolen property, rogue weddings and uncomfortable Family dinners – she’s seen it all. However this time, when Carlos interrupts Lacey’s sugar-induced nap with a phone call, he gives her an assignment that sends her skidding into a place she least expects: the local spa.
Despite rumors of a prostitution ring that Lacey is tasked with investigating, the most intimidating portion of the job is not the spa’s head guard, a man armed to the teeth and called The Refrigerator. It’s not the insanely advanced weaponry commissioned by her cousin Clay, a computer-whiz and social disaster who hasn’t quite mastered the art of explosions. It’s not even the suspicious Mister Kim, Lacey’s new landlord, who is linked all too closely with the spa.
No, what has Lacey’s undies in a bunch is seeing her grandfather in yoga pants and working side by side with Anthony – a stud-muffin who is increasingly forward with his intentions. And when Lacey’s ex-boyfriend shows up to her housewarming party with a shiny new girlfriend, the party takes a turn for the awkward. But at the end of the day, the thing that’s really got Lacey’s stomach in knots is the spa’s no clothes policy in regards to the salt treatment Meg signed them up for – on Carlos’s dime.
As Lacey struggles to find out the truth behind the spa’s uber-secret second floor, she discovers that Carlos’s heart might not be as icy as she expects, and that living with her cousin isn’t quite as bad as she thinks. And when the heat is turned up between Anthony and Lacey, she just might find they have to hold hands and jump…
4. Sauced
Lacey Luzzi is all sorts of starred, striped, and spangled as she returns in Sauced, reunited with Meg, Clay, and Anthony just in time for the Fourth of July!
Unfortunately, the rapidly approaching holiday means Lacey can no longer ignore the Luzzi Family Festivities – a picnic held every year on Independence Day. Filled to bursting with limoncello, ice cream cake, and illegal Mexican fireworks – the event promises to be an utter nightmare.
Even worse? Lacey’s inevitable birthday.
Just when things are looking as if they can’t possibly go any more downhill, Carlos delivers a birthday present Lacey is not expecting: a bomb.
Rumor has it that someone around town has been importing materials to build a massive incendiary device, promising the Twin Cities one heck of a fireworks show – and not in a good way. Carlos instructs Lacey to work side by side with Anthony – a man who suddenly seems filled with secrets – to save the day.
As the humidity rises outside, the heat is on Lacey to locate the bomb and disassemble it before her hometown receives a fireworks display it won’t forget. If she can’t find the explosives, there’s a good chance Lacey might not make it to thirty.
5. Smored
Lacey Luzzi just wants a s’more.
After her grandfather gifts her a relaxing weekend at his luxury cabin, Lacey packs her best friend Meg into the Lumina and together they take off, dreaming of a girls’ weekend filled with bonfires, boat rides, and work-free days.
However, when three unexpected visitors show up on the doorstep of the Luzzi cabin, her plans of peace and quiet are foiled. It only gets worse after Lacey finds a dead body in her trunk – with no explanation as to how, or why, he’d landed face down in her leftover Taco Bell!
Suddenly, Lacey’s trip is no longer a weekend getaway, but a top secret assignment full of kidnappings, karaoke bars, and a suspiciously meddlesome grandmother. She recruits the help of new boyfriend Anthony, as well as computer-whiz cousin Clay, and together they must find the murderer, or else they will be planning a very different kind of getaway.
6. Spooked
Trick or Traitor?
Haunted houses, candy, costumes…and a ghost. Once again, Lacey Luzzi hasn’t signed up for any of it. Except the candy. But when Carlos corners her with a very special request, she can’t bring herself to say no. With three days to Halloween, Lacey is drawn into a high stakes mission where she’s forced to investigate those closest to her – and they don’t like it.
However, Lacey doesn’t have a choice. If she can’t expose the traitor in time, the Luzzi Haunted House may take a turn from spooky, to downright scary.
