A Bad Day for Sunshine by Darynda Jones Book Summary

New York Times bestselling author Darynda Jones is back with the first novel in the brand-new snarky, sassy, wickedly fun Sunshine Vicram series—A Bad Day for Sunshine!

"Laugh-out-loud funny, intensely suspenseful, page-turning fun."—New York Times bestselling author Allison Brennan

"A Bad Day For Sunshine is a great day for the rest of us."—New York Times bestselling author Lee Child

Sheriff Sunshine Vicram finds her cup o’ joe more than half full when the small village of Del Sol, New Mexico, becomes the center of national attention for a kidnapper on the loose.

Del Sol, New Mexico is known for three things: its fry-an-egg-on-the-cement summers, strong cups of coffee—and, now, a nationwide manhunt? Del Sol native Sunshine Vicram has returned to town as the elected sheriff—thanks to her adorably meddlesome parents who nominated her—and she expects her biggest crime wave to involve an elderly flasher named Doug. But a teenage girl is missing, a kidnapper is on the loose, and all of this is reminding Sunshine why she left Del Sol in the first place. Add to that the trouble at her daughter’s new school, plus and a kidnapped prized rooster named Puff Daddy, and, well, the forecast looks anything but sunny.

But even clouds have their silver linings. This one's got Levi, Sunshine's sexy, almost-old-flame, and a fiery-hot US Marshal. With temperatures rising everywhere she turns, Del Sol's normally cool-minded sheriff is finding herself knee-deep in drama and danger. Can Sunshine face the call of duty—and find the kidnapper who's terrorizing her beloved hometown—without falling head over high heels in love...or worse?

Can’t wait for the next one.. I loved the characters. It started a little slow to set the scene and introduce everyone, but by chapter 4 it picked up. I really liked the way both mother and daughter had a life and story, not too one-sided.

A Bad Day For Sunshine. Unbelievably stupid. Don’t waste your money.

Meh. This book was exhausting. Meandering plot, corny dialogue, weakly defined characters. I stayed with it because of the good ratings and a recommendation from Lee Child, but it never came together for me.

Wonderful read.. Wow, the first of this new series, has all the fun and snark we have come to expect from Ms.Jones. I surely miss the Charley series and Sunshine has started out with a bang. We meet the newest characters in Del Sol, Sunshine Vicram, Auri, her daughter and a select cast of strange and wonderful characters. You may ask “how do you get elected Sheriff, when you never entered the race?” Read this book for the answer to this and many other quirky questions. Add this to your TBR list and enjoy!

Great book. A page turner from the 1st page. Witty, intriguing and highly entertaining.

Don’t waste your time. Started out interesting but about halfway through it just didn’t make sense anymore. Then it went from bad to worse. Kept reading because I’d already invested so much time in it but then it got so bad I couldn’t even finish the last few chapters. Don’t waste your time like I did.

This was awesome. Fabulous! Every time this author writes something new I just eat it up! Every. Single. Time. I went into this one with some reservations because I’m so used to her paranormal stories, I was afraid I wouldn’t like this one, being just a mystery. Needless to say I was sucked into the story from the first chapter. I couldn’t put this down. And I loved the little Charley Davidson Easter egg!!! Well played Ms. Jones! This author creates funny, likable characters, and a great story every freakin time!! The mystery was great too! I didn’t figure it out until towards the end!!! I can’t wait to see what Darynda Jones has in store for these characters in the next book!

Fantastically entertaining!!. This was fantastic! It had all the elements that I loved in the author's Charley Davidson series but with a new set of characters and a whole new world that I absolutely loved. I am so excited for this new series. I can already tell you this will be a series I will want to re-read often. Those elements I mentioned is the snarky heroine, fun sidekicks and an incredibly intense hero. To me it's the perfect formula to an entertaining series. As fun and entertaining as this book was, it also had some pretty heavy material. I can admit that I cried a couple times. There are a few sad moments that really pulled on my heart. It's a well rounded book with everything it provides. This author really knows how to build up the intensity for her couples. She seems to love that delayed satisfaction and normally I would say that I want it now, but I can't deny that it's worth the wait. The longer it takes for the couple to get together, the more the intensity builds. I think this couple will be another explosive relationship to look forward too. If I thought it would do any good, I would beg for the next book to be published soon after A Bad Day for Sunshine. This doesn't end on a cliffhanger but you also know there is more to come and I can't wait!

Sunshine is awesome!. I loved this book. Sunshine is awesome and I love that she’s anxious and a mom. So disappointed we have to wait a year for the next one!

Bad Day for Sunshine. A fun read. Likable characters. Laugh out loud moments. Good story line. Cliff hanger ending

Deliciously Sexy Grumpy Bad Boy. I received an ARC of this book to read through NetGalley in exchange for a fair review. A Bad Day for Sunshine is the first book in Darynda Jones new series Sunshine Vicram. Fans of her Charley Davidson series will enjoy this one too. Sunshine Vicram is the new Sheriff of Del Sol the small town she grew up in and couldn’t wait to leave, and winning the election was a bit of a shock as she as far as she knew, she had not run for the office. Her first day on the job turns into a crazy mess with a missing teen, an escaped felon, a kidnapped rooster and close encounters with her teen crush Levi Ravinder. All of the things that made the Charley Davidson series so delightful are here… well written supporting characters, super sexy possible love interest, a hint of the paranormal, intriguing mystery and a wicked sense of humour. I found this book very entertaining to read and look forward to revisiting Del Sol in future books. Medium Steam.

Banter is priceless, sassy and fun. A BAD DAY FOR SUNSHINE is the first instalment in Darynda Jones contemporary, adult SUNSHINE VICRAM mystery, suspense, somewhat humorous series focusing on Sheriff Sunshine Blaze Vicram and her daughter Aurora ‘Auri’. Told from dual third person perspectives ( Sunshine and Auri) A BAD DAY FOR SUNSHINE follows Sunshine Blaze Vicram Freyr on her return to her home town of Del Sol, New Mexico following her questionable election win as the new sheriff. With her fourteen year old daughter Auri in tow, Sunshine’s return to Del Sol is met with derision, especially for Auri as she enters high school for the first time. A kidnapped teenager, a missing lieutenant, a decomposed body, an escaped fugitive, a flasher, a rooster named Puff Daddy, and demons from the past find Sunshine struggling within hours on her first day of the job, a job that will bring her up close and personal with Del Sol’s meanest, strangest and bad. Sunshine Vicram has suffered like no one else, and with her return come the memories that are slowly revealing a forgotten connection to the town that almost destroyed her life. Our heroine, a passionate mother and daughter, finds herself facing down her demons when her daughter reveals a secret Sunshine had long thought buried. A BAD DAY FOR SUNSHINE is reminiscent of Darynda Jones’ CHARLEY DAVIDSON series including an Easter egg or two referencing the aforementioned series. The premise is complex, detailed, gritty and real; the numerous characters are colorful, nosy, quirky and bad- the mean girls and bullies at the local high school are heart breaking and sad. We are introduced to Sunshine’s parents Cyrus and Elaine Freyr, her best friend and fellow law enforcement officer Chief Deputy Quincy Cooper; students Cruz De los Santos and his father Chris, Sybil St. Aubin and her parents Mari and Forest; the local ‘book babes’ who get together for drinking and gossip but every once in awhile, a basket of muffins foretells of darker things to come. The in-depth world building is full of possibilities. There is the hint of a romance for our leading heroine but life and past history may get in the way. As per Darynda Jones’ style of writing, the humor is spot on. The back and forth between Sunshine and Auri is priceless, sassy and fun. Each chapter begins with a humorous window sign found at the local restaurants and shops. A BAD DAY FOR SUNSHINE is the perfect vehicle to add a little ‘sunshine’ and humor into your life.
