Reviews
Great start to what promises to be a fun cozy series. Love the main female character, the hunky handyman/security guard & the quirky denizens of the area.
Great story. Makes one feel as if they are part of the story. Love a book I feel comfortalke reading without all the garbage found in most mystery books.
Quirkey and funny with just the right amount of mystery. Great book!!
I really enjoyed this book. Thea obviously has a back story with her ex-husband and her handyman, Nolan, has secrets too. The characters are so entertaining, especially Hennie with her eyebrow wiggles and Curtis sleeping on the job. Thea needs a fresh start so she leaves her law career behind and takes on her grandparents campground. In the process, she gets involved in a murder investigation and the fun begins.
A great start for a new series
Great story to begin the series, mystery a little romance.
Having the map to help picture the area made it more interesting to me. Good character development and a surprising event to add mystery to the story.
