Careful What You Wish For by Hallie Ephron

Emily thought that opening a professional organizing business was supposed to be carefree and helpful to others.

Emily's new adventure had been exciting and trouble free until she met Quinn. 

Quinn was married to a man who wouldn't let her bring her things into his fabulous house and wanted Emily to help.  She and Emily had helped themselves to more than looking at things to remove, though.  They had too much wine and said things that shouldn't have been said.

When Quinn's husband turns up missing, Quinn feels she can call on her new friend, Emily, to help her when the police arrive.  This client was more than Emily bargained for.

And if this wasn't bad enough, another client whose husband had passed had a storage unit she didn't know about filled with stolen books, maps, and a dead body.

Emily couldn’t believe it.  Could these two clients have some connection?

It gets worse for Emily, and it seems as if a few of the characters are connected and involved in the disappearance and death of the body they found.

CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR was actually a little on the comical side despite all the tension going on.

If you are in the mood for a light, entertaining mystery you will enjoy CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR.  5/5

This book was given to me as an ARC by the publisher via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.
