This was just ok for me. I thought the mystery was pretty predictable and the story could have been a good 100 pages shorter. Things just really dragged on until everything wrapped up very quickly and easily in the end. I also felt pretty ambivalent about the characters and the romance. Props to the author though for venturing into a new genre.

I didn’t realize that this author typically writes romance until after I finished this book - but now it makes a lot of sense. For it being a mystery - the romance peace was a little bit cheesy and too much of a focus. But overall, it was a really fast read, the bulk of it is super interesting and then the ending fell flat. Mostly because the author packaged everything up in a perfect little box with a pretty little bow and it seemed a bit a stretch, but I did enjoy the pace and the storyline until then.
