Easy read..can’t put it down…
Sorry it was kind of boreing
I love her older books. This one not so much
Quick read and enjoyed it
Mediocre mystery novel
Amateurish writing.
It did not meet my expectations.
Interesting mystery with strong female lead.
Enjoyed
Lots of editing errors and stupid mistakes: hanging the phone up on the receiver, multiple times. Just irritating.
Didn’t really like the characters either and never became invested in their story.
Not bad, not good. Readable.
Great book to read! Loved it!! Will watch for more of her books!
Great book. Really enjoyed it.
A bit different making it more interesting than the usual book.
Sloane Monroe’s female independence is inspiring. She does things on her terms and with a firey passion!
Characters were wooden and unreal. Dialogue was full of mistakes — eg, orders a drink, Bulleit neat, but explains it as bourbon on the rocks … since when is “neat” on the rocks?!? But I enjoyed the location.
loved this book
Good story, well written. Set in Utah, in a ski town, which is a change and adds interest.
Good read. I found it very entertaining and exciting. Would make a great movie.
I prefer books without violence.
