review 1: If I could pretend that this was the first book of the series it would have been enjoyable. But since I didn't, I felt confused/annoyed/angry/furious and then insulted that the writer/editor thought us readers would just take whatever they throw at us. I don't mind that there were different authors writing. I don't care. But at least keep the names and the backstory intact. I was disappointed that they skipped the whole Royce-as-a-boyfriend thing that was perfectly set up at the end of the first book. I was so excited to see how Gwen would handle him as a maybe boyfriend when he's out for her property while also exploring her options with Beau. But all we got was a couple lines saying they had a one night stand and it was over. Not cool. I'm not even gonna bother with the ... morewhole Grant Daniels/Beau McClintock fiasco and his ever changing eye color. God, what a mess. It's a shame because the actual mystery was not half bad.
review 2: I couldn't finish the first book of this mystery series. But, my Nook broke, this book was sitting on a shelf at the library. I borrowed it, desperate for a cozy mystery since I was running low on them. I guess you could say that I liked this better than the first- simply because I was able to finish this book. But, I didn't really like it either. I probably won't read the next book in the series. Just don't like the main character or really any of the characters in the book. less
