My rating: 4 of 5 stars

McKinley has another smash with this latest installment in the Gray Ghost series. This romantic suspense kept me glued to the pages from start to finish. Although part of a series, it does successfully stand on its own. Absolutely loved the characters. McKinley is quickly becoming a must read author. I cannot wait to see what is next.

So many wonderful things in this book. Seriously cannot put to words how I appreciate and love the author’s ability to provide the reader with levity, humor, romance, and realism in this book. She had me engaged, enthralled, and laughing while reading of social injustice and possible romance. It is a delicate balance that caused this reader to be unable to put the book down before finishing. Nix has a distinct voice and writing style and contributes to a beautifully written book that is relevant and still fun. Highly recommend.

I was unsure what I was getting myself into when I picked up this book. All seems idyllic when we meet our main character. Then enter the mother in law. This study on human emotion and character development was gripping and haunting. Not my typical pick in the suspense category; however, I felt the author wrote a compelling tale and one that is quite a study of human character. Interesting story. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Romance rules over all. Each book focuses on a different woman from our sisterhood and their romantic entanglements. Each storyline progresses differently. Each heroine is strong and complex and flawed. Bondurant writes relatable, yet noteworthy characters that are approachable and heartfelt. Highly recommended.
