Book Review/Giveaway- 16 Millimeters by Larissa Reinhart

About the book (provided by Great Escapes Tours)
#StillAWannabeDetective In continuing her career-makeover quest as a for-real detective, ex-teen and reality star Maizie Albright has a big learning curve to overcome. A sleuthing background starring in a TV show— Julia Pinkerton, Teen Detective—does not cut the real life mustard. It doesn’t even buy her lunch, let alone extra condiments. Her chosen mentor, Wyatt Nash of Nash Security Solutions, is not a willing teacher. He’d rather stick Maizie with a safe desk job and handle the security solution-ing himself. But Maizie’s got other plans to help Nash. First, win Nash’s trust. Second, his heart.
Wait, not his heart. His respect. His hearty respect.
So when a major movie producer needs a babysitter for his hot mess starlet, Maizie eagerly takes the job. But when her starlet appears dead, and then not dead, Maizie’s got more than an actress to watch and a missing corpse to find. Body doubles, dead bodies, and hot bodies abound when the big screen, small screen, and silent screams collide. Maizie’s on the job, on the skids, and on thin ice, hunting a killer who may be a celebrity stalker. And Maizie just might be the next celebrity who gets snuffed.
And I thought 
Another new favorite.  I didn't know what to expect.  What I got was a fun romantic, comedy, mystery.  Making the whole mystery thing a simple enjoyable read.  

Since Maizie knows her way around a movie set she  seems the perfect babysitter for the startlet. But when bodies start showing up her past acting skills have to take second fiddle to her new 
sleuthing skills. 

The reader is swept along with Maizie as she works at becoming a real detective and gaining Nash's trust and heart.  

I wondered which she would manage first.  The detective label or the 'One' label.  

Maizie is a loveable character.  Nash is 'her's so I can't comment on his qualities.  

The story is filled with twists and turns as Maizie discovers a body and then the body isn't a body and then another body turns up.  It's a real challenge for a 'Wannabe Detective'.  

Although 16 Millimeters is book 2 the reader isn't let confused having not read book 1.  Maybe a little wistful.  

The series promises to be a winner!  Book 2 16 Millimeters was 
certainly a winner.   Congratulations to Maizie and Larissa!  I loved the book and give you a 5 star review!

I'll be checking out book 1 while I wait for the next one!
