Divided Lives by K.R. Mullins – Review by Devon Pulliam

Divided Lives by K.R. Mullins
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have to say I loved this spinoff from the Notebook Mysteries collection. This book was full of crime, blackmailing and risque relationships of the era in which it was written. Lottie does her Aunt Emma justice in being keen on details and quizitive as well as being a woman who doesn’t conform to the standards expected of her!

You see Lottie continuously getting frustrated with the Justice she works for. Knowing he’s in the wrong and doing some shady law work. It took guts for her to stand up to him, more guts to walk away and do the right thing. When she started linking things in the trial you get the sense that something big was on the horizon for her and for Chris. Though he was shady with his lifestyle, understandably so but I was slightly disappointed that he had not confided that in Lottie. Especially knowing she would have had his back. He knew her lifestyle.

The connection in this book with the past relationship and to her on/off again relationship, did not see that coming at the end!

Coming directly from reading the Notebook Mysteries and then this one. I could not love this author more and this progression of characters more. I was happy to see a happy ending for one of our beloved kids from that series and even more that the family has grown. Like the NM series this book did not disappoint at all and left me wanting another story, another crime, another case, more …. those are the best stories!
