"This book is sizzling with issues quite pertinent to our day and age. On the surface it's a book about real estate, but its religious and social commentary alone is compelling. You will laugh, and be brought close to tears. I read the book in just two sittings. I literally had to force myself to put it down the first time, and the second time didn't manage to put it down until I finished the last page."
-Justin R. Cannon, Author, The Bible, Christianity, & Homosexuality Editor, Sanctified: An Anthology of Poetry by LGBT Christians
"A great book: entertaining, heartbreaking, and hilarious. O'Branagan's imagery made everything easy to envision. It read like a television show or movie. And I kept wanting more.

-Matthew D. Klauza, English Teacher, Auburn University

-Boulder Women's Magazine
"Devin O'Branagan's artful blending of humor, mystery and a delightful canine character make this a smooth, polished and absorbing read, especially if you've ever had anything to do with real estate, not usually a sexy topic." -Judith Trustone, Author of The Cats' Secret Guide to Living with Humans
"Red Hot Property is sassy and simply entertaining...its compelling story reaches out with universal messages for women...

She weaves an intriguing tale..."

The novel delivers a timely and urgent message that all real estate licensees need to heed…follow safety measures at all times. I recommend that all of our students read this book. The newly licensed will have their eyes opened and the veterans will relish the wacky scenarios that surely mimic some of their own memorable moments in this unpredictable profession."
