Well this book had a lot of potential. It started out really good, great character, good storyline. And a cozy small town. But.... I felt like I skipped out on about 75% of the book. Like I read the beginning, middle and end. And skipped all the in between stuff. Well I just so happen to love all...
It was quite a long drive, so she flipped on the radio. “Do you have a favorite station?” “Not really. I enjoy all music.” “All?” Jo smiled a little. “All.” Jo tuned into her fa...
She needed to confirm that she was correct about her suspicions before telling Liam. She found him backstage looking drunk as usual. “Hi Martin, do you have a minute,” Bekki asked in a flirtatious manner. “Sure,” Martin slurred hopefully. &nbs...
She was not much younger than Bekki and didn't seem to share her parents’ distaste for the town or the people who lived in it. "Would you mind if we came in for just a minute?" Bekki asked in her most charming tone. But it was not Bekki's charm that got them invited in. It...
The police had given her the go ahead to open the salon doors the next day and she wanted to schedule a few clients whose appointments she had been forced to cancel. As she went down the list she checked off each name with a blue plastic pen. When she finished she laid the pen on the desk in fron...
The entire sky full of them. As if they were offering to keep her secret. She knew that it was just clouds filtering across them, ushered by a light wind, but she preferred to think they were winking just the same. The bed of the truck was bumpy against the thin long sleeved blouse she wore. Her ...
He had several boxes pulled out of the pantry and a clipboard in his hand. Sarah had offered several times to arrange for another staff member to do that for him so he could focus on cooking, but he was very picky about his food and preferred to keep track of it himself. “...
She was in full panic mode as she tried to figure out what could have happened. “Ally? What did you find out?” Charlotte left the stove and what she was stirring. “Is Luke planning on making an arrest?” “Not yet.” Ally frowned. “I took a picture of ...
Bekki carefully brushed a fingertip along the slope of her perfectly groomed eyebrow. She blinked her long lashes twice, loosening the grip of the mascara that had become a little too dried out in the summer heat. She tilted her head to catch a glimpse of her lipstick which was equally dried out....
Luckily, the library was still open. When they stepped in they noticed a man with stark white hair standing behind the reception desk. He wore a pair of glasses with thick lenses and was leafing through a large reference book. “Excuse me, sir,” Suzie said as she walked up ...
She had a few extra minutes when she was done. Only then did it occur to her that Luke never made it to the shop for a muffin. She decided to head to the shop early and make up a small basket to take to him. It wouldn’t be something that he expected, but she hoped he would like it. &n...
“You don't look happy,” Bekki said as he sat down beside her. “I'm not,” he replied. He fiddled with his wedding ring and took a long breath. “Not at all.” “I don't understand why,” Bekki frowned. “I did my best to diffuse the situation.” &nbs...
“I want to speak with Lily. Do you want to join me?” Eddy asked. “Yes, I have a few questions for her, too. I'll meet you there.” She hung up the phone before Eddy could argue. She was used to him thinking that he could always take the lead in things like this, and she was...
Mary hadn't slept much the night before either. As tired as Suzie was she couldn't wait to get in front of her computer. She wanted to find out about the gang that Trent was associated with.
