review 1: This book is similar to the first two books in the series in that it is well-paced and an enjoyable read. I really like Jackson and Vincent and enjoy the light touch on their romance combined with the more "meaty" mystery part of the story. So glad Ms. Becton brings romantic tension without getting "skanky" with it - Thank you!I wish the series would start fleshing out some of the secondary characters like Tripp, Tricia, and even "Mom and Dad" as I feel they've become a bit one-dimensional, and I think I'm starting to get a crush on Tripp so I really want more about him - LOL!!So if I liked it so much, why only 3 stars? Mostly searching for more depth, but probably the biggest problem for me was a matter of distraction. There were a couple of editing issues that took me by... more surprise, knowing how meticulous this author normally is, and then the funky page numbering and chapter management of the book was a bit frustrating. I read this on the Nook, which showed that it was an 842 page book (fear not - it is nowhere near that magnitude of an undertaking!) and the chapters in "Content" showed 44 chapters when there was really only 35 plus an epilogue. If you're not a crazy "how far along am I" reader likeI am, this likely would have no effect on you and you can enjoy it completely.
review 2: Mrs Becton owes me eight hours of sleep. I innocently picked up my Kindle after work and started At Fault and except for a few cat naps, read it straight through until 4 AM. Now I have to wait for Southern Fraud Thriller, #4 where loose ends will be tied up and maybe a new insurance fraud is introduced. I would have given the book five stars if Ms. Becton had spent a few more chapters capturing the main villain and drawn out the chase scenes more but mental exhaustion from sleep deprivation is evidence enough to assign 4.5 stars to this good read. less
