Very well written erotic romance. It has twists and turns you don't know how they will unwind. I enjoyed it straight to the end.

This story has a lot of heart - not just in the romance part but in other friendships too. It is a feel good book for sure. It was so what easy to predict but the writing style made it worth continuing.

This is book 6 in the Armand Gamache series and I recommend that you read them in order, as some events carry over from previous books. This is an excellent police procedural series and I thank my s-i-l Julia for recommending this series to my wife and I. We both enjoy it. This book is one of the author's best that I have read so far and I rate it 4.5 stars rounded down. This book opens with Armand recovering both physically and mentally from events in the previous book. Armand is on medical eave from his position as Chief of the Homicide Surete(Quebec Provincial Police) team. He is drawn into investigating a murder that has taken place in Quebec City. At the same time he suspects that he may have made a mistake in his role in convicting a murderer from the previous book. He asks his #2 in the Homicide team, Jean-Guy Beauvoir, to re-investigate the crime unofficially. Jean-Guy is also on medical leave and agrees to do so. Both cases are solved with a satisfactory ending. Both men are starting to heal, both physically and mentally. I grew up in Buffalo, NY and I can remember occasional cold spells where the temperature dipped to below zero, once to -20F. M y parents and friends would always comment that "you know it's cold because you can feel the snow crunching underneath your feet when you walk." This book takes place in February in Quebec City, where crunchy snow is an every day occurrence and daytime temps go to -30(book doesn't say Celsius or Fahrenheit, but both are bitter cold). Some quotes: Describing the Literary and Historical Society: "It takes a lot of effort to halt time, and for the most part they've done it." Conversation between members of the Champlain Society: Rene: "I sometimes thinks that we are in a rowboat society." Jean: "A what?" Rene: "A rowboat. It's why we do things like that." He jerked his head toward the window and the dot on the river. "It's why Quebec is so perfectly preserved. It's why we're all so fascinated with history. We're in a rowboat. We move forward, but we're always looking back." I raced through this library book in 3 days.

For sure on the erotic side. Very headstrong characters make this one more interesting and keeps you guessing how things will turn out. I enjoyed this one and found more from the author that I enjoyed too.

I wasn't sure I was going to like this book when I started it but I ended up getting caught up in the narrative and finding it to be a quick read. There is a lot in play in this novel with the main character having flashbacks about growing up in the town she returns to after her mother's death. There are themes of abandonment, mental illness, alcoholism and relationship problems that make the book a little overwhelming at times and keeps the reader on the edge of their seat at other times. Worth the read...

This was the 6th book of the series which is my favorite series! Highly recommend this series and author. ???? 2 thumbs up. Can't wait for the next book!

This book is TERRIFYING. I couldn’t put it down. Highly recommend!!

The second in a series but could be read stand alone, this cute little romance if for the nerds. Both characters deal with conflicts that draw you in. I love catching up with the friends from the first book. One to book three now.

PG-This was an excellent audiobook and a great read-I combined the two because sometimes I just had to hear the voices and sometimes I had to see the power of the words! The newspaper articles broke up each chapter in an incredibly moving manner! This book was spot on!

Dreadfully boring and predictable. The protagonist was wimpy and insipid. The plot was unimpressive, dull, and pointless. This book seemed to be more about the trials of being a waitress than anything else.
