Post-grad Anthropology student, DJ Abbott, was determined to have a summer internship far from her polar opposite parents back in Cleveland, OH, and in desperation applies for eccentric (read crackpot) billionaire, Hank Honeycutt’s need for an anthropologist for a summer project in the desert near his ranch house in northern Arizona. An easy job, she […]
I love this Will Trent series and I’ve collected them all on audio over the past couple years. I sometimes worry when I start but that’s ridiculous because I am immediately hooked into the well-written characters and world. The main plots always seem timely but perhaps they are just timeless crimes. The topic of the […]
Yours Truly, The Duke is the first book of the new Say I Do series by Amelia Grey, featuring one of my favorite tropes, a marriage of convenience. Fredricka needs a husband or she might lose her sister’s children. Wyatt needs a wife or he will definitely loose his grandmother’s inheritance. It seems like an […]
The Kind Worth Saving is the second in the series. I actually also got the first book The Kind Worth Killing at the library. The books are almost 8 years apart. The characters who are carried over to this book are Henry Kimball and Lily Kintner. Henry Kimball is no longer a police detective. He […]
Cat and Bones. One of my favorite book couples of all time. I first read this series back in 2013 and loved it. This time around, I opted to listen instead and was impressed with Tavia Gilbert’s narration so it made it even more enjoyable for me. That’s not to say it wasn’t already enjoyable […]
Trigger warnings: suicide, substance abuse, violence against women Pretty Girls is another great story by Karin Slaughter. It is exactly what I would expect to get from her, dark, twisted and kept me on the edge of my seat. It is also not the book for anyone who is even a little bit squeamish. I […]
I am excited to participate in Anne’s Read-along again this year. I listened to the Night Huntress books back circa 2015 and enjoyed them. Eternal Kiss of Darkness is one of two standalone romances that feature supporting characters and an HEA. I enjoyed my re-read tremendously, and found my original thoughts on the book hold up. Eternal Kiss of […]
Though I love that the Night Huntress world is expanding, I struggled a lot with this book. Spade is perfection, but Denise annoyed me for at least a third of this book. Her and Cat are alike in that they obviously never saw a horror movie in their life and the ability to risk […]
I’ve been on a Karin Slaughter kick and since there aren’t any new Will Trent books, I’m still working my way through her backlist of standalone stories. This one is a bit different. Andrea moved back to her small hometown to take care of her mother with cancer and never left again. She’s in a […]
The action in Destined for an Early Grave by Jeaniene Frost was jam packed from the minute it started. I was in love with this story. It was my favorite in the series so far. I buddy read this book with Anne, whose blog you are reading this on, and Lillian from Mom with a […]
