As soon as I found out it was tied to the Spice sisters, I quit. I did not enjoy that series at all

A short, sweet treat. A delightful confection that delivered exactly what it ought to have - love and laughs.

Another taut legal thriller in the series. The resolution of the core mystery was very adroitly done, tying in a secondary arc running through the story. The emotional wounds left after the dénouement were a nice touch of realism, too.

A fast, entertaining read. The titular mystery was well constructed, with a clever solution. Overall, moderately enjoyable, but not enough of a hook to have me back for book 2

A really fast ride. This one flew along, but without the sense of menace of the first. The central element of the mystery became obvious quite early on, but the story did have a few surprises at the end. Recommended.

A sweet romance, with good chemistry between the couple. A bit cloying at times, and not compelling enough for me to read more in the series

Nearly one third through and the book was prim and lifeless. Zero chemistry or spark between the leads and no romance

The mystery was more engaging than the romance, and once again, St Didier is the most interesting piece of the story for me
