This is a def a new favorite by this author!! I really loved the slice of life book but also enjoyed the romance and the dog/ tracking books and love the search and rescue twist.I think this book also had a fun mash of elements and i also love the small town vibes.

I think this book had a really unique concecpt and felt like i was a reading an action movie but because of that i did not feel that attached to the charcters or the plot and that made me hard to keep engaged. i will try book 2 but def as an audio!!

I really just loved this book. I thought this was a unqiue read. I loved seeing the found family elements again!! I also loved the time gap between book 1 and 2 and i also loved how the book still focus on molly and grandma dynamics but in different way. I also loved the mysery element in this read! I also really hope we get more books set in this world

I dont think this book wowed me. I think the plot for what it was was sort of all over the place. I liked the romance but it def felt insta love to me and felt rather forced. I thouht the mystery was fun but it was hard to feel in love with the plot when nothing made a impact!! it was a fun story to read in the winter but not my favorite in this series.

I thought this book was just a fun time!! I really loved all the character and the world. I think this book had some pacing issues that pulled me out of the story but i had a really fun time. I also loved how the mystery built through this story and i loved anna. I will def check out book 2! So spicy and that is not always my thing but this was a fun time!
