Kate
Valentine a bestselling mystery author is headed to her ex-fiancĂ©’s wedding on
a historic private island. What could possibly go wrong? Well, for starters, Kate’s
ex friend and co-author on her adventure series, Jack happens to be on the boat
headed for the island. If that is not frustrating enough, things go completely
sideways on the first night of the wedding reception dinner when a body is
found. This looks like a mystery Kate’s lead character in her novels Loretta
could possibly solve, but can she?
This novel
by Jenny Elder Moke is well written so I will give the writing a four-star
review. As for the story line, I found I lost interest quite quickly when the
story kept changing from Kate and Jacks perspective, to a perspective from
Loretta. The story had all the ingredients of a good mystery but something for
me was lacking. Kate and Jack were fun, but there were too many supporting
characters mixed in for my taste, so on that note, I give the plot three stars.
My thanks go to the author and St. Martin’s Press for my advanced readers copy
which I voluntarily read and reviewed.
