Dangerous Curves Boxed Set #1 (Dangerous Curves Books 1-3) by K.L. Montgomery – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Dangerous Curves Boxed Set 1: 3 Cozy Christian Mysteries by K.L. Montgomery
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed this engaging boxed set containing the first three books of the cozy Christian mystery series, ‘Dangerous Curves’. I love the main character YA librarian and amateur sleuth Sunshine Baker who works at the Bryce Beach Public Library. Sunshine jumps into action when there is a mystery to solve. The setting of the small town of Bryce Beach is really bought to life by the descriptive narrative. In the first book, ‘Betrayal at the Beach’ Sunshine is keen to discover the culprit when there is a theft at the library and has to consider that it may be one of her colleagues.

The storyline for ‘Mystery at the Marina’ involves Sunshine investigating when sea creatures turn up dead on Bryce Beach. During her sleuthing she discovers evidence that proves that one of Bryce Beach’s most prominent families are involved. The third book, ‘Shooting at the Shore’ involves a murder when a body washes up on the shore. Sunshine’s investigation looks at whether the recent talk of developments in their quiet coastal town is a motive. Along with Sunshine her colleagues, Molly and Evangeline help with the investigations and both bring different elements to the stories. I loved the relationship and dialogue between the fellow librarians.

I also love Sunshine and her catchphrase of “Jesus, take the wheel!”, she makes a great main character who really does bring the stories together. The plot twists in each story kept me guessing until the end and I was gripped by the storyline in all three books, finding that I could not put the books down. A great boxed set which I literally ‘binge read’ and I definitely recommend reading this series.
