Publisher's Summary
What happens when a snarky hit man and a by-the-book PI cross paths?
Leland
Being a hit man has its perks, but I never thought getting an accidental mooning by an attractive PI while he’s caught on a fence would be one of them. While it’s not exactly love at first sight, he’s captured my interest and won’t let go.
Suddenly, I find myself caught in a game of cat and mouse, determined to attract the attention of Jackson, the PI who should be my enemy. He pretends like he’s not flattered by my flowers and the mentions of my totally-not-fictitious blow-up doll, Randy (or was it Dandy?), but I know better. Why else would he be teaming up with me to bring down Hardek, one of the city’s most ruthless criminals?
Jackson
Even though the cops are telling me that the hit man is a notorious contract killer, I can’t help but admit that I’m drawn to him. He’s funny, charismatic, and attractive. There’s no way this ridiculous man can be the person the cops are after.
But when Leland ends up at my doorstep injured, I’m faced with a tough choice. It’s my duty to hand him over to law enforcement, but my heart has other plans. I want to keep him. To protect him. To be with him.
Though one question remains: Why in the world does the man have so many d*mn guns?
Contains: shenanigans on a swing that you would not find at a playground, a car chase that sadly doesn't have flips or explosions, a horsey ride sans horse, cuddles, an exuberant mutt, a suspicious chief of police, and lots and lots of laughs.

Funny and captivating - couldn’t stop smiling.
I loved this book, the characters grab a hold of you and pull you into the story! The narration was clear and warm, enhancing the tone of the story.
Highly recommend. If you have never read/heard Alice Winters, this is an excellent place to start.

Good start but unrealistic ending
I really enjoyed the first half of the book but had a hard time to finish it when the story became too unrealistic for me.
I did enjoy the touches of humour and the narration.

Great start, but gets tedious
It started strong and highly engaging and then the pace just drops for several chapters in the middle. It partly regains its momentum but unfortunately the chemistry between the main characters gets repetitive. Amazing narrator however, really brings it to life.

The hitman with a heart
Love this storyline. Leland is a hitman who has always been on his own but one look at Jackson as he falls over a fence and he’s falling for him and re-accessing his hitman ways to allow him be with Jackson. Chaos, sass and laughs unfold as Leland struggles with going straight, a vacuum cleaner, saving his boyfriend from other hitmen and setting up a sex swing. As always, a great narration from Michael Ferraiuolo puts an icing on the cake of this funny start to this great series.

A funny, naughty, fast pased romp!
I loved this escapist funny romp full of witty dialogue and easy banter, and a number of unexpected surprises. Michael Ferraiuolo's narration is spot on and adds greatly to the enjoyment.
I found myself listening whenever I could, while driving, as I worked around the house and went shopping because I really wanted to know what would happen next. While some of the story points stretched my belief ever so slightly, the overall funny funny situations carried the story to its tumultuous ending.
This is book 1 of 4 and a 5th related. I am very excited to continue the two main characters journey as they navigate the crazy. Highly recommended.

Loads of fun!
Loveable airhead, Leland, is a deadly hitman who seems to be modelled on the Jack McFarland character in Will & Grace. When their paths cross, he utterly charms and frustrates Jackson, a private investigator who takes life much more seriously. As usual, Michael Ferrauola captures the humour perfectly. Ridiculously amusing!

The narrator was amazing as Leland!
I enjoyed the humour so much when I read this book last month that I decided to one-click the audio AND it was fantastic! The narrator was awesome, first audio I've listened to by him, and he did such a wonderful performance voicing both of the different characters. He performed Leland's character perfectly = 5 star performance.
I stumbled across The Hitman’s Guide to Making Friends and Finding Love when I was looking for my next KU read. Alice Winters is a new to me author, but I’ll definitely be looking at some of her other books to add to my TBR list.
This is probably the most light hearted, amusing and entertaining book I’ve read that involves a Hitman and a PI. Leland is the type of character that makes every scene he’s in fun to read. He has zero chill, he’s always talking and constantly fidgeting, and he adores Jackson. Leland loves pushing boundaries and saying the most ridiculous things. He’s hilarious.
Poor Jackson didn’t know what he was in for when he fell over that fence and mooned Leland, capturing his complete attention from then on. The relationship development, constant banter between these 2, and action scenes = a fun read.

Hilarious
Genuinely laugh out loud funny. Leland is hyper and an absolute classic and Jackson is a perfect foil for him. Loved them and their relationship so much. Can’t wait for the next book.
