Description from the publisher:
Pit Bulls are Sweet . . . and that’s no mystery!

Lily Mason and her adorable pittie Smooshie both have a nose for murder, but this is one cougar-shifter who would give her left paw to never find another dead body. All she wants is to enjoy a simple life in her new town, her fixer-upper house, while working a job she loves. Besides, the mystery of whether Parker Knowles, her boss at the rescue shelter, will or won't finally ask her out gives Lily plenty to keep her guessing.

But when an abandoned pit bull puppy leads Lily and Smooshie to the corpse of a local Lothario, she is once again drawn into the seedier side of small town living. Even though she's warned off the case by the local sheriff, Lily is determined to find the killer. It doesn't help matters that more nasty notes are showing up around town, making Lily wonder if the two things are connected.

Lily and Smooshie need to crack the case of the dead Don Juan, while navigating what it means to live in an all human town, before the secrets of the people she cares for are exposed.

The Pit List Murders, Book 3 of the Barkside of the Moon Mysteries from USA Today bestselling paranormal cozy mystery author Renee George, is a gripping murder mystery that keeps you guessing from beginning to end!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PIT LIST MURDER is the third book in the Barkside of the Moon series.  While I believe they would each stand on their own, it is probably still best if they are all read and in the order of release.

Once again, I could not put down a book in this series.  They are fun, funny, romantic, intensely dramatic, and still relatable.  This is what a cozy mystery should be.

I loved getting to know more of the town’s people a little better.  There are good, bad, and everything in between.  Some are sweet, some are sassy, some are quiet, and some are brassy.  It is as it should be.

I loved that Lily was working on her education.  She is intelligent and she’s finally allowing herself to grow into the person she should have been before all of the tragedies began hitting her family.  Taking the test for her GED is just step one. 

One last note about the story:  the mystery behind those threatening letters is revealed!  I was surprised and yet it fit perfectly with what I knew about the person.

The door is open for more adventures in this series with Lily, Smooshie, Parker, and Elvis.  My romantic heart wants to believe that Parker is her mate.  I look forward to returning to Moonrise, Missouri.

Note:  While I was given this book as a gifted ARC, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
