Thank you to Bethany House for my review copy!
I enjoyed the first book by Julianna so much that when I saw Bethany House had some advanced copies of the next one to read and review I knew without a doubt I wanted to review this one. I was super happy to have gotten my request in to review it and couldn't wait to get it into my possession.
Julianna did not let me down once! This book was even better than the last one and I couldn't stop my laughter and enjoyment. My first theory was so crazy I thought it had to be wrong, so I moved onto my second theory which was shot down within pages as that person turned up dead! I couldn't believe it! I really thought it had to have been that character.
However, as I read and pondered the mystery slowly unraveling within the plot the more I thought perhaps - just perhaps - my first theory would prove correct. In fact, things were looking like maybe I had actually figured it out, but then my hopes were dashed as that theory proved wrong!
Julianna is really good at making the last person you suspect be the killer! She did it in the first book and in this one as well! While I love the fact I couldn't figure it out (again!) I am also frustrated! I am normally really excellent at figuring murder mysteries out and mysteries in general - Julianna has stumped me each time.
The characters are lovely and the romance between Drew and Madeline is so sweetly perfect! I adore Nick - he makes me laugh almost all the time. Aunt Ruth entertained me to no end - I really did love her character and her addition to the storyline.
I hope Julianna doesn't stop this series anytime soon because it is quickly becoming one of my very favorites! Bethany House - if you carry another book of hers for review, you can bet as long as I can I shall request to review it! I LOVE her books!!
5 stars easily!
