3 stars for story
3.5 stars for narration by Christine Williams
The story here wasn't as good as the other novellas in the series, although I was entertained. The coincidences were many to believe. The narration voice sounded almost automated at times, but at other times she did a fine job.

I really enjoyed this case. It had twists and turns as they tried to find the connection with the serial killer behind bars and what the connection is between the victims and Widow’s Island. The story definitely pulled me in from beginning to end and I can’t wait to see what is coming next.

Series/Standalone: Part of series and I would recommend reading in order.
Would I recommend this novella/series? Yes. This novella receives 5-stars from me, and I highly recommend it to Romantic Suspense/Mystery readers. If you’ve read the previous books in the series, you will not be disappointed with the fifth installment. If you have not read this series, then I recommend you do it soon. You should check out Kendra Elliot’s full-length novels too.
I can’t wait to dive into the sixth Widow’s Island novella, written by Melinda Leigh.

After several books I haven't really enjoyed, it was good to get to a book that was well written with good characters. Just all around good - story, characters, pacing, everything. Enjoyable and though I never enjoy Leigh's books as much as Elliot's, I look forward to the next.
