I am glad I read your review because if I had judged the book by its cover I would have assumed it was a romance and bypassed it. A mystery/thriller with a focus on family and perhaps a love story thrown in is something I would love to read. Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteYour review made this book even better!!! Love the mixture of a thriller and a love story....HOWEVER!!! You know me.

ReplyDeleteI love a good mystery thriller and if the ending made you tear up I am sure I would love this book. I love books that are full of action I can usually read those pretty fast.

ReplyDeleteI love suspence/thrillers that have a little bit of a romantic side. Sounds like another great one you've found!

ReplyDeleteHow do authors come up with such crazy twists and turns? I would love to swap brains with a fiction writer for just three days.
ReplyDeleteOf course, I don't want to give up travel writing forever... that's fun too!
Thanks for this review, I would have walked past it based on the cover - as it looks like a romance novel. I will have to check it out!
