A STEAL OF A DEAL BY GINNY AIKEN - NEW The second book in a series about gemologist Andrea "Andie" Adams, A STEAL OF A DEAL is edgy and fun, but I struggled to really enjoy the variety of characters. Andie, the heroine, is tough, yet feminine, while her male counterpart, Max Matthews, is jaw-droppingly handsome and the object of Andie's frequent irritation. Andie and Max work for the Shop-Til-U-Drop Channel or STUD for short. Their latest assignment has them heading to Kashmir to help the victims of a recent earthquake. Unfortunately, things do not go smoothly as a man is found dead and the STUD crew are all held in a Pakistani prison until police can rule out potential suspects. Once cleared, things still do not start looking up. Andie's time in Kashmir it turning out to be anything but fun. Once again, Andie will be solving a murder and, whether she likes it or not, working very closely with Max to get the job done! I never read the first book in this series. This may have fed my frustration with the book. I liked Andie's character. Max didn't affect me the same way, however, and I found myself all too happy to put the book down to do chores instead. This is never a good sign. There are other characters involved as well. Perhaps, too many for me, because I had to keep notes to remember their roles in relation to the story, STUD or to Andie. It proved to be more of a distraction and made it tough for me to get into the story. I wonder if reading the first book would have made A STEAL OF A DEAL an easier read in the long run.
