Indigo Ridge
by Devney Perry
3 ⭐️ A fun, murder-mystery romance with a twist
”It had happened so naturally, this fall into Winn. Like I was out for a short drive, and when I looked back to where I’d started, instead of traveling yards, I’d gone miles. Deeper and deeper, until there was no turning back. I was in it with this woman. So fucking in it.”
WHAT TO EXPECT:
✨ small-town romance
✨ murder mystery
✨ sharp, beautiful, new chief of police FMC
✨ loyal, possessive rancher/cowboy
✨ instant attraction
✨ one-night stand to lovers
✨ grumpy x sunshine
✨ dual pov
✨ mostly fade to black with minimum details
✨ tw: suicide, murder, death of parents, family member with dementia
Honestly, it was a fine story, and I had a good time reading it. It wasn't my favorite, but it wasn't bad by any means. If you love small-town romance and murder mystery, I'd say give this book a shot!
What I liked:
- The charming small town of Quincy, Montana.
- Winslow (FMC) and Griffin (MMC) were both competent, strong-willed, and caring.
- The ending. I had a hunch about the ‘suicide’, but I didn't see the twist coming, so that was entertaining. The epilogue also wrapped up the story and romance well. Glad it was HEA.
What I didn't like:
I didn’t really love the author's writing style: lots of info dumping at the beginning, wordy in the wrong places, and then there were some jarring time jumps. I also felt like I was being told more than I was being shown.
While I liked Winslow and Griffin as characters, I didn’t really invest in their romance. But I honestly think that's because I didn't connect with the writing so I couldn't fully immerse myself in their story.
The 'smut' wasn't satisfying. I'd give it a 1/5 for spice. This was a partially closed-door / fade-to-black romance where most of the sex scenes are skipped over, are not very details, and/or are finished after one paragraph. But what we did get didn’t do anything for me, and I think it's because I never really connected to Win and Griffin's romance in a way that allowed me to feel some type of way during their sex scenes.
