Nessa Dahl is as straight-laced and normal as they come, which is pretty unusual in a town like New Orleans.  She's grown up with eccentric people – she does live in the Dahl house after all – and currently shares said house with her aunts and several characters only found in, well, fiction.

Which makes it that much more odd that the owner of the bank Nessa works for thinks she's responsible for the robberies going on.  It's driving Jeremiah MacNaught crazy that someone is dressing up in crazy disguises and robbing his banks every year and no one can catch them.  So he's going to do it himself.  With his prime suspects help.

With more twists and turns, crazy characters and heat unrelated to the weather, THIGH HIGH is just an all-around fun book.  Yes, it's silly.  Yes, it's a stretch.  But that's ok, because Christina Dodd always makes it work.  It's sexy, fast, funny and tender and with her unique style, the author pulls it all together in a book that ends all too soon.  With little time to read anymore, Christina Dodd is one author who still makes it to my to be read pile.
