Mary Pat’s review of Hidden Legacy by Christina Rost

I enjoyed Best Seller, Book One of the H&G Mystery series and looked forward to Book Two. Not disappointed! Emersyn Zucker, whom the reader is introduced to in Book One, doesn’t give her real name to “Mr. Americano” in the coffeeshop, but they share a table and strike up a conversation. Turns out “Mr. Americano” doesn’t share his real identity either. They hit it off, but soon, their responsibilities of family and wealth intertwine in ways neither can predict.

The plot is a rollercoaster of events with both Emersyn and Lucas playing their roles, but wanting to come clean because of their growing feelings for one another. If that isn’t enough, a mystery surrounding an heirloom Bible inserts itself firmly between them, causing each to doubt the other’s intentions.

If you like intricate plotting, sweet romance, and suspense galore, you’ll love Hidden Legacy. Keep writing, Ms. Rost. We love what you bring to the table!

Mary Pat’s review of Show Me Skulduggery by Ellen Withers

See review below

Looking for a new mystery read? I’ve loved this series.

I have enjoyed this mystery series, but Book 3, Show Me Skulduggery, is my favorite so far. I LOVED the setting. Totally fell in love with Arden, hated the bad guys, and so glad Joey called nine-one-one! Also thinking Kurt needs to step up his game if he’s going to keep Liesl. The author works the dual timelines with elegance. This was such a pleasant read! I thoroughly enjoyed the stable history and the horses. Quite captivating. Once I got started, I didn’t want to do anything else but finish the book.
