Jon's Downright Ridiculous Shooting Case (Jon's Mysteries Case Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 4,555 ratings

Jon is the most powerful psychic Reader in the country–and unanchored, which is rather a problem. The bigger problem? Finding an anchor. And Jon doesn’t think his must-have list is too crazy. It’s just rather hard for a man to have:

1) the patience of a saint (for when Jon kills electronics, ’cause that’s a daily thing)
2) the ability to keep up with his schedule (the cases are crazy, not going to lie)
3) the protect instincts of a superhero
4) muscles (this one’s more of a want, honestly)

You can see why Jon’s kinda given up on getting an anchor as that’s a tall order. At least, until Donovan Havili entered the room.

Holy beejeezus, his dream anchor is real?!

    This was my first AJ Sherwood story and WHAT an introduction! There was an intriguing plot, a little steam, sweetness, and funny moments and banter. I loved it! I’ve never read a story with a psychic MC and I loved everything about it. It wasn’t the story of Jon recently discovering his powers and struggling with it, I really liked the fact that psychics were pretty much a normal, everyday aspect of life and there are different types. You learn about the world of psychics without it being a critical, sterile explanation.

    I liked that for a psychic, their power is their power, and there wasn’t much room for error with interpretation. Jon reads auras and meridian lines, sometimes delving deeper, and that’s his ability. Even if he doesn’t have all the answers right away, it’s not like he would misunderstand his own ability. I just really liked we knew what to expect with Jon’s abilities and didn’t have to guess what he would or wouldn’t be able to do next.

    Jon’s ability is especially intriguing to me and how he uses it for his line of work. Finding out there were levels to his power just opened the door for more in this world, and that is exciting. I also loved that there was more than one case he worked on!! Every police/detective story I’ve read only focuses on one case at a time. Working multiple cases all throughout the story was much more realistic with that type of job. And it was handled nicely, there wasn’t whiplash when switching the focus for each case. It seems there was a bit a cliffhanger with the first case, wondering if that’s going to be a focus for a future book 👀

    This story is definitely more plot-based, but the romance was still sweet. It was pretty insta-love, but also not as they didn’t start throwing out “I love you” as soon as they met. And honestly, given their histories, you can understand how their connection formed strongly so fast. I’m a sucker for big scary looking meanie who is a serious cinnamon roll, and Donovan checks all the boxes. I can’t wait to learn more about his history with the MP. Ugh, he deserves the world and Jon is so sweet for him 🥹 I might be late to the party with this series, but at least that means I can jump right into the next book!

    I thoroughly enjoyed this series. It's not what I expected from a Mysteries series but very much A.J. Sherwood's style.

    The characters are very relatable. Strong but flawed, good solid people.

    Intertwined with the mysteries is not only good people working together but family growth.

    Not only the relationship developing between Jon and Donovon, but the blending of Jon's family with Donovon's.

    Developing new family ties and healing old hurts is dealt with compassion mixed with just plain fun!

    The cases they are called in to investigate are crazy enough to be entertaining, but A.J. keeps them from being ridiculous.

    Although not quite as lighthearted as the title might suggest, I still enjoyed Jon’s Downright Ridiculous Shooting Case. Parts of it was still fun and the characters were witty, but Jon’s situation was definitely serious. Without an anchor, using his powers to their full extent was not only difficult, it could prove to be dangerous. The fact that electronics of any kind didn’t survive around him, having a partner to help him navigate around those obstacles would be helpful. The problem was that being around Jon was… well… a lot and not everyone had the patience to handle being with him day in and day out entailed. Even his family had a hard time dealing with him. That’s what made finding Donovan so rare, and scary – in more ways than one.

    I loved the twists and turns in Jon’s Downright Ridiculous Shooting Case. I also loved the twist on Jon’s powers as a psychic. I also adored Donovan and his devotion to Jon. The fact that he was so open to help him and so patient totally baffled Jon. He spent a lot of time not wanting to get too close because he knew that it was just a matter of time before Donovan realized that he was more trouble than he was worth. Donovan’s devotion to Jon came easy for him because no one had saw beyond his physical appearance for a very long time.

    The mystery and suspense in Jon’s Downright Ridiculous Shooting Case kept the pages turning. It definitely would have taken a lot longer to figure out exactly what was going on without Jon’s powers. Jon’s Crazy Head-Boppin’ Mystery is next in Jon’s Mysteries. I’m pretty sure that things are only going to get more interesting as the series continues.

    Before reading this book, I had just finished the first book in another series and didn't like the feelings it left me with. So, instead of starting the next book in that series, I started this book instead. Within the first few pages, this book just made me happy. I love the characters, the story, the writing. And I love that it makes me feel happy. This is my first book by this author, but I definitely plan to go read everything she has written.

    I randomly landed on this book while searching for some murder mystery romances. And I am obsessed with the characters and the plot so far !! I really liked the romance between the main characters, and even though I wish we had more time before they got together, it makes sense in this scenario. Don was an absolute sweetheart and I really enjoyed their personalities. God it was such a green flag of a relationship and I think everyone should read this series!! I cannot wait to see what else Jon gets up to !! WORTH EVERY MINUTE ! My love for AJ Sherwood has just reached the top now. Lol.
