Loving this series!
What can I say I am a huge fan of this series. And this latest book does not disappoint at all. Emma aka Mattie is my most favorite character ever! She is super kickass and amazing. She just keeps on growing as a character and her story keeps getting better and better. Never a dull moment. I couldn’t stop reading until the end. And that ending just left me wanting even more now. I can’t wait to find out what happens next as well as what Cass really is. He’s definitely something super cool too! all the characters are great by the way. Each has special qualities that makes them just as wonderful. Highly recommend this series as well as the other series from Author Apryl Baker.
I loved the cross over aspect of this book, it made me go back and re-read the other series. This book was amazing and fast paced. I devoured it in a couple of hours and cant wait for the next book! Must read
Every Crane Diaries story is amazin. I love the charcaters so much and getting to watch them grow and mature is amazing. This story brings us a tie in with one of Apryl’s other series, the Bloodlines Legacy. I admit, I hadn’t read that series yet and it was still very easy to follow along with the story line, but also prompted me to immediately read that series and get caught up. LOL This one takes us deep in Bayou country and introduces a new foe. I have to say, I enjoyed this one more than some of the others just because it’s a slightly new turn. I can’t wait to see how more of the new characters come into play. It’s a great read in the continuing saga of Emma Crane. Love it so much, but dying for the next book!!!
Emma has come a long way from the kid in foster care looking out for everyone. However this new case may be too much even for her. The Hathaway foundation is just getting things set up, and Emma is now on a case to find a missing hunter.
These series are extremely well written, the characters are complex and pop right off the page. Don’t let this series pass you by.
What an addicting read! Apryl Baker pulls you into the story and you can’t seem to put it down until the very end! With every book we learn more and more about each character and their abilities and you become entranced in the storyline! Can’t wait to read the next one and learn about who Cass really is!
This is an amazing series. And I would definitely recommend it to anyone!
Emma/ Mattie is coming into her gifts faster than even she knew. She finds out that she even has some of her mother’s gifts, but her human body can’t keep up. And then there’s Cass. He is showing some of his own gifts. And thanks to Apryl Baker. All of us are wondering what he is! Lol I can’t wait for the next book!
This book did not disappoint. I loved each of the Crane Diaries books, and I impatiently wait for the next.
I love Emma and officer Dan!!!!! Cass has so damn lovable, his story is definitely one I want to hear after this book. I highly recommend reading this series and this book.
I love following all of Maggie’s adventures I can’t wait to find out how she gets herself out of her latest supernatural predicament!
The Crane Diaries has been a great series. And Bayou Secrets has been no different. Maddie/Emma’s adventures just keep getting more and more interesting. Can’t wait for Apryl Baker’s next installment. It’s a great book that keeps you coming back for more.
Another great installment in the Crane Diaries. I can’t wait for part two…
I could not put this book down!
Mattie is facing her biggest challenge yet – this book is full of surprises and mysteries!
Definite must tead!
Highly recommend this writer n this series.. ghost files, crane diaries, silas and bloodline legacies are a must read.. can’t wait to read what she comes out with. Anxiously waiting
This series is a must read!! I have followed this saga from start to now. Saddest day will be the final chapter. Emma is the heroine that we all need. I wish to be friends in life with her. She has grown so much and her character has developed beautifully. I have been on the edge of my seat reading this and can’t wait for the next adventure!
I cannot get enough of this series. I love how well thought out the characters are and the storyline keeps you guessing! I recommend this series to anyone I can. I am so glad I found this author and series. I am anxiously awaiting more.
I have been waiting for the crossover of these series for so long I could hardly wait to start reading. The opening was unexpected, the writing on fire, and the story line kept me so engaged that I could not put it down until I reached the very last word. The suspense kept a steady pace throughout the entirety, and the Eli feels were strong throughout. A terrific addition to the series and one I heartily intend to reread many times and shove into my friends faces to read.
The relationship between Officer Dan and his Squirt is so sweet and full of love that it brings tears to my eyes.
Yes yes yes! Another fantastic book! Absolutely can’t wait for the next! I love the style of writing and the story line. This is a great series you will fall in love with along with the characters. Don’t hesitate to start… the only thing is have plenty of time to read because you won’t want to put them down
I love this book every time I think the series can’t get any better it proves me wrong. It is such a great series I re-read all of the books every time a new one comes out and I still don’t get tired of them!
I truly did not forsee where this one was headed after reading all others before it, but absolutely loved the direction, storyline was fantastic, cannot wait to read the next one. Apryl Baker has truly become my favorite author and that puts her above some more well known authors i love which will remain nameless. Please don’t stop writing.
