Synopsis
For this Jersey girl, big hair means big trouble!
Newspaper reporter Colleen Caruso just wants her unruly curls tamed into smooth, sleek locks. Instead, she finds her stylist dead, face down in a shampoo sink. Faster than you can say Aqua Net, Colleen starts investigating. The case gets even hairier when the owner of a local fitness studio seems to have jumped from a plane … without a parachute.
Meanwhile, her suave editor, Ken Rhodes, steps in to help. And he may be looking for more than just a good story from Colleen.
Add in a missing bracelet, some suspicious husbands, and a little breaking and entering—and this Jersey girl is heading for a real blowout!
Can Colleen tie up these split ends? Or does she have an appointment with disaster?

My review: Hide Nor Hair by Jo-Ann Lamon Reccoppa
4 STARS
I liked Colleen. She is recently divorced with two kids. She works as a reporter for the local newspaper and wants on full time. She is curious, drinks too much and cares about her family.
This has action, mystery, humor and romance. It is a fast paced book.
Colleen and her sister Kate are going early to get their hair done before work, but when they get there the place is dark and the door is open. They go in and find the owner hairstylist is dead. Colleen tries to give CPR and Kate snaps pictures from her phone before they move the body.
Colleen gets to write the story and follow up on it for the paper.
Her daughter thinks it is cool that her mom keeps finding dead bodies in fact there is a pool at school on how many more bodies she finds before the end of school.
Colleen has a crush on her boss at work, trying to make ends meet on what she makes, work on her articles and deal with being a single mom.
The setting was New Jersey.
I really want to read the next book in this series and see where it goes. I hope it comes out soon.
