This book was a pretty quick read. A little simplistic in the character depth, but that is part of why it was such a quick read. Enjoyed the characters and the story.
A very fast read but still could hold your attention!
just an average mystery in which the protagonist often lacks reasonable caution and misses obvious clues. The editing was passable at the beginning of the book, but deteriorated a lot near the end.
Wow
This is a great murder mystery. She’s a P. I. dating a detective. Still hasn’t gotten over her sisters death 2 years earlier. But her new client sister was just murdered and doesn’t believe it an accident. Didn’t know real estate equals murder.
This is the first Sloane Monroe book by Cheryl Bradshaw I’ve read and can’t wait for the next one. Character development is good and pace of story keeps you wanting to read “Just one more chapter” every night before turning the lights out. Bradshaw has an easy-to-read style that shows definite talent. I look forward to many more books by her.
I read so much I cant remember why I liked this. I only remember that I did.
Loved this story & its characters. A real page turner that I was sad when it was over.
