Stephanie Feagan (Author)

Book Description

Series: Silhouette Bombshell | Publication Date: April 1, 2005

CPA-with-an-attitude Whitney "Pink" Pearl has just blown the whistle on the accounting scam of the decade. And in true scapegoat fashion, she's lost her job and reputation and has moved back home to start again at the bottom of the pile, working as a forensic accountant for (gasp!) her mother. There's no money trail too cold for Pink to follow. But trouble sure follows her--because Pink's not taking back her accusations, no matter how many death threats, abduction attempts and steamy kisses from lawyers of questionable ethics she receives....

5.0 out of 5 stars Janet Evanovich, scoot over., April 11, 2005

This review is from: Show Her The Money (Silhouette Bombshell) (Mass Market Paperback)

Stephanie Feagan has stepped up to the plate and hit a home run with Show Her the Money. You'd think the world of CPA's and whistleblowers, oil men and West Texas rednecks would be somewhat humdrum, but not when Whitney Pearl is in the picture. She's armed and dangerous (with a calculator and tape recorder, that is) and she's not going to stand by and watch Marvel Energy cook the books and get away with it.

This is one of the funniest books I've ever read. I started the book intending to just read a chapter or two before bed, but the next thing I knew it was 3 am and I was bemoaning the fact that I had no more pages to read. My husband was ready to strangle me so he could get some sleep. Can I help it if my laughter kept him awake?

Now I'm eagerly awaiting the release of the second book in the series.

5.0 out of 5 stars intriguing whistle-blowing romance, April 12, 2005

This review is from: Show Her The Money (Silhouette Bombshell) (Mass Market Paperback)

Senior manager Jane "Pink" Pearl testifies at a senatorial hearing that the memos she had were stolen along with all the backup disks except one. She vows to regain possession of the last set that proves Marvel Energy intended to commit fraud. The last set was inside a box sold to a family neighbor Mrs. Bohannon at a yard sale; Mrs. Bohannon is away on vacation. Senator Santorelli tells Pink to bring the evidence or else face prosecution as a chief auditor who hid the accounting scam.

Pink returns to her hometown of Midland, Texas even as physical threats rise from the Doo Dog Stalker and others, and rumors abound of her sleeping with Santorelli. Her mother, who wants her to drop the case, provides her work as the only person who would hire her. She also gets her a new lawyer, Ed, who successfully sued Marvel Energy, and strongly encourages Pink to tell the truth. Ed and Pink start with respect that turns into love but her life is on hold until she can exonerate herself at the senate hearing.

This intriguing whistle-blowing romance taken from the headlines is a fine tale that grips the audience from the moment that Pink, trying to do the right thing, is treated as a pariah by Congress, the media, her former peers and associates, and the public. Many conclude she is a loose woman who performed the illegal acts or just a traitor to her employers. Thus the story line centers on Pink's struggles. The romance with her second lawyer Ed takes a back seat to the whistleblower treated like a criminal by almost everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Whitney Pink Pearl is smart, sassy and has an attitude, July 6, 2006

Whitney Pink Pearl is a CPA. She's smart, sassy and has an attitude. She kicks butt, calls a spade a spade, has PMS, and cries when she gets angry or frustrated. She has a mother who is also a CPA and just as smart, sassy and with her own attitude.

Most CPA's do their work from the seats of their chairs, but not Pink. She does her work from the heels of her feet in the field, getting shot at and shooting at others.

The plot just keeps getting thicker and thicker and the cheating husbands and wives keep mounting up. And the dead bodies keep mounting up also.

Beside being a great romantic suspense, Show Her The Money deals with values, principles, and lies told long ago that come back and haunt you and make you realize that if you hadn't believed those lies, your life would have been a lot better.

Show Her the Money is a great read. I couldn't put it down.
