I was a little hesitant with reading this book considering it include a murder in its plot however I read the second book Juniper hill and loved it and had to read the series so far. This book didn’t disappoint me. I loved their relationship and how smoothly it transitioned from being sex buddies to more. It was simple. I especially loved the scene where Winslow and Griffen put her ex and that annoying reporter in their place and Griffen lay claim to her in a possessive but attractive way. I found myself surprising engaged in the murder mystery and trying to guess who it was. The ending shocked me. I loved it. So conflictingly cruel but good. I like how despite the book containing a murder in the plot it didn’t carry a heavy mood throughout and damper their sweet relationship blossoming. I would have loved a “you were right all along” confession from Griffen yk because my girl Winslow had gut instinct and everyone doubted her.
