Publisher Description
No good deed goes unpunished… Newly widowed Kate Huntington agrees to help her closest friend's elderly aunt with a problem, but the "problem" ends up dead. And Kate finds herself embroiled in a police investigation. To clear Aunt Betty, she and her cohorts must wade through a brimming pool of suspects—some of whom have secrets they'd prefer to keep buried.
As the investigation progresses, Kate finds it harder and harder to deny her attraction to the PI her friend Rob has hired. But it's too soon; she's still grieving for her beloved husband. Then Rob surprises everyone with his intense and negative reaction to the potential romance. Is he only concerned that Kate will get hurt, or could he be jealous?
Meanwhile, the residents of Aunt Betty's retirement community continue to die off, and not from natural causes. Soon the question becomes not whether they'll find the killer, but at what cost…her friendship with Rob? Or one of their lives?
(This book is part of a series but is also designed to be read and enjoyed as a stand-alone.)
Customer Reviews
Ill Timed Entanglements
I can only say, this book must have been difficult to write. I say this because of the number of characters the author had to fit into the story to make it work and flow as smoothly as it did. With so many people to keep track of, I found myself, once/twice looking back a few pages to recall who someone was. But that is just me and my faulty short term memory.
A little romance and a few dead bodies are not subjects that usually live together well. But they do here, and very nicely so.
All in all, I enjoyed the book and am looking forward to the next in this series. RET. LT.
Great Author!
This is only the second book in this series, and the author already displays a maturity and finesse in her writing that I only expect from a much, much more experienced writer.
She writes believable characters, people I would like to meet. The plot keeps me interested, the pace makes fir a snappy, page-turning read. She is meticulous in editing and proofing her work so there aren't the jarring, drop-you-out-of-the-story errors that are so prevalent in indie publications.
This book was flawless, and I highly recommend this author to anyone who likes to read.
