It is so entertaining when Aunt Maxi and Loretta interact. There was a lot going on in this book and it was a roller coaster of emotions. Sadness for the crimes, happiness and surprises in Roxy’s life and, of course, a nugget at the end that makes me anxious to read the next book. It was interesting figuring out if the crimes were related. This was another fun installment to this series.

Thank you to the author for the Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) copy of this book and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Author Tonya Kappes has done it again. This is an entertaining escape into the wonderful town and characters she has created. The mystery is an entertaining roller coaster with twists and turns along the way of solving the murder. The characters are fun, quirky, relatable and charming. Tonya has also incorporated her love for fur babies into each book by highlighting an animal that is waiting to meet his or her right person and forever home. Being an animal lover myself it warms my heart to meet each spotlighted pet and see how they add to the storyline and the lives of the characters. I am looking forward to the next visit to Honey Spring.

All thoughts and opinions are my own, and in no way have I been influenced by anyone.
