About this ebook
It's spring in Pawpaw County, Indiana. Everyone has a bad case of hanky-panky pants. Senior sleuths Ruby Jane (RJ) Waskom and Veenie Goens are on the run, chasing down cheating heart jezebels and shaking child support out of deadbeat baby daddies. Love takes a peculiar turn when a local dentist turns up dead, dressed like a scarecrow, on the porch of his father's mistress’s home in Hound Holler. When a gigged body floats up at the White River Boat and Gun Club, Sassy Smith, senior cougar, is arrested for the murder. RJ bemoans that no one in Pawpaw County can keep their pants on or their skirts down as her grown daughter begs for help chasing down her philandering husband. The romantic mysteries come to a surprise head as the senior sleuths outrun shotgun showers to close in on the answers at the Moon Glo Motor Lodge, the Original Home of Hillbilly Hanky Panky. Veenie and RJ have to buy an extra case of Bengay and a butt load of BBs just to keep up with the romantic misadventures in this humorous crime classic.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I read Ghost Busting Mystery, Book 1 of this series and LOVED it. Funny, quirky, laugh-out-loud mystery, so I bought Book 2 Baby Daddy Mystery. The Baby Daddy is even better than Ghost Busting. Daisy Pettles has a rare gift for capturing the dynamics between two lifelong gal pals. Their wit and banter makes the book a real treat. I loved small town mysteries and this series reads like the Golden Girls living in Mayberry. A real treat. Big beach read material good for any woman age 40+ who wants to escape for awhile into some Lucy-Ethel like antics in the country.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The big question is In the title- who is the Baby’s Daddy? I kept changing my mind and was wondering until the end! This second part in the Shady Hoosiers Detective series is better than the first. I want Ruby Jane and Veenie as friends- smart, great sense of humor and lovers of junk food! Although I am not from a town like Knobby Waters I felt like I belonged. Daisy Pettles is a fantastic story teller and I can imagine sitting on a porch swing listening to her tell the tales of this small town. She sprinkled in humor with intelligence and teased me with whispers of the next book. Plus this reminds me of a cross between ‘Murder She Wrote’ and ‘The Andy Griffith show’. I love it and love sitting down, hunkering under the covers and reading it with a cat on my lap- that’s my perfect day!
