About this audiobook
Hetta Coffey is a woman with a yacht and she's not afraid to use it. A globe-trotting engineer with adventure in her soul, Hetta is determined to solidify her relationship with her long-distance boyfriend, Jenks Jenkins. What better place for a romantic interlude than aboard a yacht in Mexico's hauntingly beautiful and solitary Sea of Cortez? But where Hetta goes, trouble follows, and chaos is sure to ensue. After a run-in with a couple of sea serpents that threaten to rock the boat, she nevertheless decides to take on a project in the port city of Guaymas. After all, Jenks is headed back to Kuwait, so why not cash in on the best of both worlds by making some dough while living aboard her boat in Mexico? Once again Hetta's indomitable spirit, stubborn independence and penchant for deceit will keep the reader in stitches as she launches herself and her best friend, Jan, into a sea of trouble. A pesky parrot, a drunken aunt and a shadowy figure who is handsome in a "criminal sort of way" lead to murder, mayhem, kidnapping, and run-ins with several federal agencies on both sides of the border.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/555 of 75 for 2015. Jinx Schwartz has become one of my fall-back authors when I really want something light and frivolous. Hetta Coffey gets into no end of difficult situations as she sails her yacht around the Baja peninsula, and this time is no different. Based in the Sea of Cortez, Just Add Trouble spends less time talking about the free-lance work Hetta is doing, and more on her "adventures" on the mainland, the Sea of Cortez, and the Baja. All the usual characters are present, and the fun and games multiply till the reader wonders if Hetta will get out of this one alive. Twists galore, and great, great fun.
