Pride and Premeditation by Steffanie Holmes

4.3 stars.
Finally their emotional relationships are progressing more to catch up with their sexual ones.
I had a bit of a hard time keeping my eyes to this book. I had to take a break a little over 2/3s of the way in and go read a few other books before I could come back to finish this. And mostly that’s because the relationship aspect and the overarching mystery of the book shop takes second place in each of these books to the mystery of the moment. Whichever dead body they stumble across in town, they always seem to use as a distraction from the biggest mystery around them since Mina’s ex bestie died in the first one and made her a suspect.

I don’t know.
I’ll probably keep reading the series sporadically when I run out of other books to occupy my time, I just wish we would get more of the romance in each book, and that the FMC would stop being so hesitant about everything.
It would probably help my opinion of the books if we got POVs from the men, truthfully. I think that’s a pretty significant reason for why I’m having trouble focusing here.
