I adore Mary Kubica's novels. They're always packed with plenty of chills, unexpected twists, and excellently penned suspenseful plots. I ended up predicting one of the twists in  The Other Mrs.  way too early. While I still read every page, I found that knowing one of the bi

Release Date - March 17, 2020 If you missed the release of The Sea Glass Cottage yesterday, you need to take a closer look at this touching contemporary romance. Thanks to HQN Books for inviting me to be part of their blog tour. I've been a fan of Ms. Thayne's for a while, and this is one of her best.

Release Date - February 18, 2020 In the first A.L. McKittridge novel, detectives A.L. McKittridge and his partner Rena Morgan are working long hours trying to stop a serial killer. Four women are dead, exactly 10 days apart, and there seems to be no link between the women. Once they do find the link, time is quickly running out. They only have a link as to why the women are connected, but the killer's identity is still a mystery that they must solve if they're to keep the next potential victim safe. That's the mystery, but there's a lot more to this story. A.L. is divorced with a teen daughter. She's starting to make some wrong choices. Teen or not, his role as a dad is to keep her safe, but the long hours he's working are making that difficult. Rena and her husband are trying desperately to have a baby, and the infertility treatments are all too consuming. Her husband is pulling away and she fears he's having an affair, but she can't push work

Release Date - March 10, 2020 Charlie Miller is new to town. She hopes the decaying beach cottage she's purchased will give her a new start. You see, she used to be known as Steffi and is fresh out of prison where she's served her time after providing a false alibi for the love of her life. Despite her new name, new look, and new home, she has the feeling that someone is lurking in the woods. Someone is determined to make sure she's not allowed to start fresh and have her happily ever after. The very first chapter begins with a woman's death and the police detectives saying they should have done more.

There is a good deal of creepiness, mainly due to the area and the unusual townspeople who Charlie befriends, but it is developed slowly in such a way that you do keep guessing. Is someone really after Charlie or is all in her head? lf someone is after her, how
