The Misadventures of Trisha Lee #3
Flipping Fates
I’m Trisha Leigh Lee. I’m 35, and even though I’ve been dating my childhood sweetheart Aaron for over a year, he still hasn’t proposed. But at the moment, that’s the least of my worries.
The singles group and I are flipping a rundown hoarder’s house so it can be auctioned off to benefit the local homeless shelter. That means diving neck deep into tubs of rotten pickles, boxes of sticky magazines, and about a hundred bags of dog food. I’m pretty sure the place is haunted too, and I don’t even believe in ghosts.
Then there’s Keith, the ex-con project leader. He may work for the homeless shelter, but he’s hiding something--and did I mention he has a creepy skull tattoo? But I have to stay focused. After all, we’re also dealing with sketchy ghost hunters, broken car windows, and sidewalk muggings.
Still, we’re going to get this house clean, even if it kills me. Because the mysterious thumps, disembodied voices, and eerie porcelain dolls actually might. Did I mention I don’t believe in ghosts?

I'm never sure how to describe this series -- romantic humorous Christian suspense mystery?
Generally I'm not a fan of too many genres mashed together, but this works. Throughout this story I laughed, rolled my eyes, gripped my chair, got frustrated, got worried, got anxious. One thing I didn't do, though, was put the book down. After getting to know Trisha and her friends in the first two books, it was fun to revisit them and see how their lives had/were changing.
That change is really what sets this apart from books like the Stephanie Plum series (other than the Christian/secular angle). I read many Stephanie Plum books years ago, but eventually I got bored because nothing happened with the characters. They solved a lot of cases and had a lot of adventures, but relationships didn't develop and characters didn't grow.
That's not the case for Trisha and her crew. By book three, the singles group has changed because people moved and got married, but more people joined the church too. Also, Trisha and Aaron aren't flirting and what-iffing; they're relationship continues to change and mature.
I love how Williams not only includes the fun plot points, she writes characters with depth. That makes for a fun AND heartwarming story. I really hope she's planning on writing another book. I'd like to see what else is in store for Trisha.
Rated PG/PG-13 (depending on your bend).

If you like quirky characters full of heart, social justice issues (esp. from a Christian perspective), and action sequences with equal parts danger and humor, you must pick up this series! With the unpredictability of a hoarder's home, the possibility of a haunting, and Aaron and Trisha's romantic antics, this book kept me turning pages both when I read the beta version and again when I read the finished product. Trisha Lee's latest adventure is as fun, harrowing, and humorous as ever and I cannot get enough!

Trisha is one of my favorite characters of all time. She is deliciously awkward and so honestly real about ... well, everything! Loving others as Christ loves them is hard. Not judging others based on their past is hard. Keeping your mouth shut is hard :) But Trisha teaches me about grace for others and grace for myself.
In the latest installment of Misadventures of Trisha Lee, hilarity (and squeamishness!) ensues when Trisha's singles group flips a hoarder house a la the best HGTV shows. Gangs, ghost hunters, and plenty of other shenanigans for Trisha, including new sidekick Herb, whose appearances had me snorting with laughter. Lessons in love, family, patience, and trust. Trisha makes me laugh again and again. Highly recommend.
