What a delightful start to a new series! This short cozy mystery is skillfully written and has a fun surprise ending. I received this book free and chose to make a voluntary, unbiased review.
Paranormal mysteries with light humor and sweetly romantic elements
I enjoyed this quick cozy mystery. At 70 pages it is just the right size for taking a break out of a busy day. The fall through Christmas always seem a busy and stressful time. A quick, no stress, book is a great antidote.
With Bittersweet Betrayal you can relax and refresh. Claire and Nick, the main characters, have a love tie that goes beyond death. They make me smile and give me hope of finding a love like that. I’m excited that Milo will be appearing in future books. A surprising like, for me, was Adele. I truly enjoyed her. The mystery was good. I was interested but not stressed with keeping track of everything. Being a short, it is fast paced.
This book is available in a boxset. If you like your books longer, I would recommend getting the boxset so you can keep going. If, however, you like to keep some shorts on hand to read between errands on busy days or to refresh with, Bittersweet Betrayal will fulfill that.
What a sweet surprise! I’ve had this on my kindle for awhile just picked a random book to read today. It was such a fun read and got me hooked. I love how quickly Milo adapted to Claire. And I loved the big reveal at the end. Good mystery with ghosts helping. Can’t wait to read more in this series.
Bittersweet Betrayal is an excellent beginning to a new series. I was drawn in on page one and raced to the finish. There are so many red herrings and other twists that I did not guess anything. The end is a huge twist. I cannot wait to read the next book.
This is the first book in a new series by this author. I was so excited to read this book because Stephanie Damore has never written a book I haven’t loved and true to form, this book was no exception. This book kept me swiping my Kindle till the end of this short, quick, enjoyable read! Just the right amount of sass and snarkiness, humor in just the right places, this paranormal is sure to please! Characters you both love to love and hate and you find yourself cheering about the dead character being dead! (no spoilers, read this story!) A surprise ending that catches you off guard, completely enjoyable, why are you still reading this review, go ahead and take the plunge!
Best Short Cozy Ever!
I so enjoyed this cute cozy mystery. There were parts that were so funny I laughed out loud! The mystery is simple, but it introduces us to the characters of the series. I think that this backstory is essential. This is going to be fun! The mystery, the humor, and the crazies! I received this book for free and this is my honest review.
Really an excellent book!!!!
Really quick fast easy to read book. Author evens says 1-2 hours usually and It was. Yes I read this after reading the second book. It does read by itself.
The kitty is smart and cute too. Wondering if he will have special powers too?
I had to check to make sure it is book one. I felt like I missed something about how Nick is a ghost and what happened to him that he died. Claire says something about what had happened to her in the beginning but I felt lost. Did I miss a novella or a previous series that this book is a spin off from?
This initial confusion is why i gave it four stars. i would give it 4.5 but do not know how to do that, sorry.
This is my honest and freely given review. I did receive an ARC book.
