Book Details:

Book TitleThe Wrong Side of Murder (A Nikki Bryant Cozy Mystery) by Lauren Carr
Category:  Adult Fiction (18 +),  274 pages
Genre:  Mystery/Cozy Mystery
Publisher:  Acorn Book Services
Release date:   July 21, 2022
Content Rating: This cozy mystery is rated G for everyone!

The Wrong Side of Murder is another wonderful cozy mystery by author Lauren Carr. It has all the elements that draw me in - an intelligent female lead, an equally smart boyfriend who partners to help her, a complicated plot where clues are slowly revealed, people who aren't what they seem to be, comedic moments to balance the darker ones, and several quirky pets full of personality.  

It's a wonderful book to escape into at the end of the day. And get ready to read into the wee hours as, if you're like me, you won't be able to stop reading until the mystery is revealed.  
- Marilyn R. Wilson, Olio by Marilyn

Book Description:

Nikki Bryant’s Next Case Takes Her to the Wrong Side of Murder

One spring morning, Jodi Gibbons got up and went to school as she did every day. Her young life went sideways though when the police found that her mother had been brutally killed during the night.

Twenty years later, many in Pine Grove believe Jodi got away with murder. After all, how could she have possibly slept through her mother’s violent death in the very next room?
After decades of silence, Jodi accepts investigative journalist Nikki Bryant’s invitation to tell her side of the story. However, before the interview can take place, someone silences Jodi permanently.

Now it is up to Nikki Bryant and her friends to uncover the secret that Jodi Gibbons has been protecting—a secret someone believes it is worth killing to keep from being revealed.

I rated this book 5 *****'s 

Nikki did it again

She is becoming my new favorite character in Ms. Lauren Carr's book. Of course, Ms. Carr did it again. I do not how she is not running out of brilliant stories to amaze her readers.

This is another amazing story that blows my mind. It is funny at the same you are glued to the story. The book is hard to put down. Nikki and her ability to solve a crime are remarkable. This woman won't stop until she helped the victim. Elmo adds the cuteness of the story with his shenanigans and his fans all over him. 

Life is always full of surprises and sometimes innocent get killed because of some evil actions from greedy people. I am so happy that Nikki finds justice for them. I cannot wait what Ms. Carr's new book about Nikki and her dog. These two are perfect teams for each other

But before she has time to unpack her car, Nikki stumbles upon the dead body of local news anchor, Ashleigh Addison, her childhood rival. Could Ashleigh’s death be connected to an explosive news story that she had teased about airing live? Did that explosive story have anything to do with the murder of Nikki’s father?

With the clues in her father’s cold case hot again, Nikki intends to chase down the story of her life until she catches his killer—no matter what it takes.

Join us for this tour from August 15 to August 26, 2022!

Book Details:

​Book TitleThe Dirty Martini Club (A Tess Kincaid Novel) by Jude Randazzo
Category:  Adult Fiction (18+),  308 pages
GenreSuspense / Romantic Suspense
Publisher:  HABERDASHERY PRESS
Release date:  June 2022
Content Rating:  PG (mild profanity, no f-words, mild violence, no sex)   
 
Book Descriptions:

Tess Kincaid, celebrity golf professional, decides to visit and meet, for the first time, her presumptive fiancĂ© Eddie Spinozza's family in Albany, New York for Thanksgiving, in anticipation of the next step in their relationship. The Spinozza and Cuchinelli families have been entrenched in Albany for two generations, but Eddie has assured Tess that he is not involved in his family's "business". However, on the first night of her visit, sitting in The Dirty Martini Club watching Eddie perform with his band, she witnesses the brazen shooting of one of the band members. Almost simultaneously, and without much warning, an epic, once-in-a-lifetime snowstorm suffocates Albany, preventing Tess from leaving town. 

She subsequently becomes a material witness to a series of events, which the police are only reluctantly investigating. What happens next is a daring, and life-altering event that brings Eddie and Tess to a do or die scenario amid mob warfare. The results are quite unpredictable.

I rated this book 4 ****'s

Family secrets, lies, and betrayals rule one 

I like reading any Mafia books related. The Dirty Martini Club is not an exemption. This book will show you the truth and the lies between two family rivals and an innocent man have no clue.

This book is very entertaining and your mind will be blown away. The parent's love and caring are so much different from a typical family. The love of protecting an innocent child which leads to danger is very extraordinary. I love that the setting is not far from home and some places even are located in my city. Relationships need to be protected and sometimes you have to let it go and hope you find your way back into each other in the future. Sometimes, you need to jeopardize your life to save a dear friend which is my favorite part.

My very first time reading the author's book. I am looking forward to reading more of his writings.

I rated this book 5 *****'s

An irresistible dare 

Goodness gracious this is another inspirational book from Ms. Melissa Foster. I did cry while reading a certain chapter. I rarely cry from reading this. The story of Dare and Billie get me right through my heart.  This book is so extraordinary to read. It is such one of a kind book that you cannot put it down. My heart was breaking into pieces.

It also laughs out loud. I even snort while reading. The vow of marriage which is staying through sickness and health is perfect for this story though they were just lovers. It is also soul searching and leads you to find your true self. If you have not read any books from Ms. Melissa Foster, I think you miss a lot of opportunities to fall in love, laugh out loud, energize and hook with her characters.
