Pineapple Premeditation is the 14th book in the Charlotte Gibson Mystery series by Jasmine Webb.

Charlie has what starts out as a simple job of a cheating husband but turns into much more.

There is a murder, and Charlie sees the whole thing. Not to mention that the Hams brothers are still giving Charlie trouble, even from the grave.

Charlie gets help from her friends Dot and Rosie as usual.

This is such a great mystery, and I love Charlie and Jake's romance, it's so nice.

Set in Hawaii, with fantastic characters, and a well plotted mystery that you will have a hard time putting down.

Always love these books, this one took me for a bit of a loop, though. The last book ended on a cliffhanger that starts at the beginning of this book, and we start to see some closure; however this one wraps up with the story’s main case. I did not see the ending coming!I love Charlie, Zoe, Jake, Dot, and Rosie. They are the best unsuspecting team of individuals to work together. I can’t wait for book 15 at the end of next month!

Another good read

I sure love the characters in this series of Cozy Mysteries. The senior ladies just make my day. I would have wanted the guy who wanted the money from Charlie to get caught. It’s always nice to see the bad guy get arrested. I like that you are continuing this series. . I already have the next one on my calendar.

Pretty Good

Enjoyed the book. Pretty much the same as all Charlie Gibson books where she is confronted with a murder. What would she do without Dot and Rosie who always manage to help her out or rescue her? Left you hanging about the man, Larsen, who was threatening her. That was very disappointing.

Another Wonderful Ride with Charlie & Friends

Jasmine Webb takes us on another wonderful Hawaiian adventure! It's great watching Charlie develop as a character. The hard part is waiting for the next one.

Good reveal of the murderer

Charlie is in way over her head this time. She is seriously threatened in her own apartment. Sees a murder while on stake out. Stops a robbery. Rosie and Dot always there for her! Jake 100% .

I spy with my little eye....

Charlie sees more than she expected when her case takes a serious turn and trouble follows her home. Dot, Rosie, and even Zoe help their friend but there are $2 million reasons to watch her back

I absolutely love this series. I have binge read all of them and highly recommend that everyone reads them. I love the character Charlie and of course Dot and Rosie are the best. The mystery is also good and very hard to figure out. Can't wait for the next one.

Fun going back to Maui to hang out with Charlie, Zoe, Dot, Rosie and Jake. Charlie takes on case for a woman who thinks her husband is having an affair. They have a prenup so she needs dirt oh her husband. Well Charlie got more than she bargained for.

I love these books for when I need a break from heavy or emotional books. I love the characters in this series, and it's nice to escape to their Hawaiian world sometimes.

This 14th title in the series fell a little flat for me, like it was due on a schedule as opposed to being inspired by a great storyline. A breath of fresh air may be due here.

Can't wait for #15!
