Synopsis
The happiest day of Payton Lambert's life was the
day she graduated high school and watched Bald Knob, Kentucky get smaller and
smaller in her rearview mirror. She wanted more for her life than a tiny town
where everyone knows your business and you can’t find a decent cup of coffee
for at least forty miles. Twelve years later, an unexpected phone call in the
middle of the night has her packing up her life in Chicago and racing back home
to the one person she ever regretted leaving behind.
Upon her return, she sees that Leo Hudson, the scrawny boy who followed Payton around like a puppy and could recite cow insemination facts in his sleep, is long gone. Leo is still hot on her heels, but now he's wearing a sheriff badge and dead set on solving a murder that may or may not involve Payton...along with half the town. In a place where the biggest crime happened the day someone kicked a few of his cows, people are pointing fingers, rumors are spreading like wildfire, and Payton swears she's only making out with the sweet-talking, studly sheriff to distract him from the secrets she's keeping.
When you've been tased, peed on by a yippy dog named Bo Jangles, and can't stop picturing what Sheriff Hudson looks like naked, it will be a tough job making everyone agree that...Jed had to die.

Review by: Gina
I am officially giving Tara Sivec the title, Queen of RomCom! If I ever need a good that will have me laughing out loud, I will turn to one of her books. I was laughing so hard through out Jed Had To Die.
I thought the storyline was really fun! It was funny but then had a little bit of mystery thrown in there! While I was reading, I kept trying to guess who killed Jed and why. The characters MADE this book! I love banter and the author did an amazing job with the banter in this book! And it just wasn't one or two characters, it was all of them! They were all amazing!
My favorite part is how the story was written. Each chapter had a coffee quote from Coffee Mug and those where HILARIOUS! Being an avid coffee drinker, I can totally relate! Payton owns a coffee shop, Liquid Crack and loves her coffee so those quotes fit perfectly! I also enjoyed the Police Reports between chapters. It helped us get an insight into some of the people who live in Bald Knob and they all had me laughing out loud.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book! It kept me entertained from page one! The story was well written and with a bunch of fun characters. Even though Tara Sivec has ruined blueberry pie for me, I am looking forward to whatever else she may write!
