Take a Murder, Darling

When a beautiful woman needs a bodyguard, wisecracking private eye Shell Scott is the man for the job in this classic hardboiled mystery. Of course my line of work has its perks—and it should when I lay my life on the line for dangerously daring women even if they are among the most luscious ladies I’ve ever met. It’s not easy guarding these beautiful bodies . . . of course it takes a lot more than being a bodyguard these days, especially when there’s so much body to be guarded. And she has plenty of body to keep me busy—uh, working—for quite a while, even if she’s stacked for murder. Take a Murder, Darling is the 18th book in the Shell Scott Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
