Daniel Kavanaugh dumped his wife Stacy to be with exotic dancer Pammy. As they obtain a divorce, they argue over whom should possess what material items. In fact in recent weeks Daniel has been nasty and testy while Stacy wants to move on to start her life over.

The dispute ends when Daniel dies in a plane crash, but his corpse is missing. At a memorial service for Daniel, all hell breaks loose leaving Stacy to wonder what is going on. Adding to her bewilderment is a string of crimes that include homicides and break-ins. As law enforcement looks into the situation, Stacy finds herself surprisingly attracted to two hunks intimately involved in the case.

GRIN AND BEAR IT lives up to its title as the story line combines tons of fast-paced action with loads of humor and a side order of romance into a palate pleasing thriller. Stacy is a fabulous protagonist trying to regain equilibrium in her life following her spouse's desertion, but each step she takes seems to lead to a deeper chasm; still she refuses to quit. Readers will enjoy accompanying the heroine as she hunts for a new life, but only appears to land deeper in the quicksand of her previous one.

Fun, flirty, suspenseful but not scary- great curl up in front of the fire and laugh read. I bought the book based on the adorable cover and catchy title- ( My Ex Got Eaten by a Bear- and that's Ok) and read it for the fun ride the author takes the reader on.

This book had me laughing all the way home, and I enjoyed every minute with the book's leading lady- feisty, real... Great stuff. Perfect summer reading!

I absolutely love this book and have read it several time when I am looking for a good laugh. there is so much humor as well as action and murder mysteries. You can't miss with this book for a good laugh.

I grabbed this book because of the title...it proved to be a great choice. It's witty, interesting, fast paced...loved it! Now I need to find all her books!

I guess my first review was removed since possibly the author didn't care for my comments. The bottom line is this story is unbalanced because one miunte it's mildly funny, then it's slap shtick funny and then is slow and hard to plow through. When the whole plot is revealed it's doesn't make sense. Not to mention the HOW it's resolved and who resolves it is an insult to anyone's intelligence.
