A Trip with Trouble - Book Review

A Trip With Trouble by Diane Kelly

The Dangerous Curves Motorcycle Club is on their way to the Mountaintop Lodge and Misty Murphy is excited to host this eclectic group of women. The women all check in and it looks like it is going to be a fun week for Misty, Rocky and Brynn. When the ladies go out for a ride, they take Misty and Brynn with them but soon trouble ensues. One of the riders does not show up at the checkpoint. Soon fingers start pointing at who may have been involved and Misty quickly gets involved to help solve the crime.

I love this series by Diane Kelly and really enjoyed her first book Getaway With Murder so I was excited to start reading this one. I adore the characters, especially Misty and Rocky who are middle aged and starting a relationship. Each story brings new guests to the lodge and it is fun to follow along to see who the culprit is. Ms. Kelly does an excellent job of keeping the reader guessing until the very end. St. Martin’s Press has gifted me an advanced copy of the book, so I would like to thank them. I read and reviewed the book voluntarily. An awesome book to curl up with this fall.

Thank you so much for stopping by the farmhouse. Lynn

Getaway With Murder - Book Review

Getaway With Murder by Diane Kelly

Misty Murphy has just passed a milestone birthday, settled her divorce and is the proud new owner of a mountain lodge in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Everything is going according to plan, she has found staff, a new handsome handyman named Rocky, and she just booked her first group in at the lodge. Life could not get any better until one of the guests turns up dead. Who should Misty trust? She really does not now anyone in town or even the people who work for her. As the suspects mount, Misty must figure out who the killer is before her lodge gets a bad reputation. Can she solve the case before the suspects leave town?

What a fabulous start to a wonderful new series called “Mountain Lodge Mystery” by Diane Kelly. The characters are so well written, and it was fun to meet the townsfolk. We get a little glimpse into a new relationship for Misty, and some other character back stories of whom I hope will be recurring characters in future books. I really enjoyed the story, the setting, the relationships between the characters, and can not wait for the next book in the series. Thank you to St. Martin’s Press for an advanced readers copy that I voluntarily read and reviewed.

Look for her Southern Homebrew moonshine series debut on July 6th (The Moonshine Shack Murder) and her Mountain Lodge Mysteries debut (Getaway with Murder) on October 26th!

Bending The Paw - Book Review

 

Bending the Paw by Diane Kelly

 

Megan Luz is a police officer and Brigit her partner is a trusty canine, and they are on their way to try and solve a new mystery. When they arrive at the scene, it looks like a brutal murder has taken place but there is no body, just a lot of blood. Now they have a frantic wife and a missing husband who must be dead after all that blood left at the scene.

On the other side of town after a major hailstorm, it looks like a shady contractor Is up to no good and Megan and Brigit offer to help the people track him down. Megan just will not give up trying to figure out what this contractor is up to while still trying to solve the murder.

While this is the ninth book in the Paw Enforcement series by Diane Kelly, I did read it as a stand a lone novel. I would like to go back though and read the series from the beginning as I adored Diane Kelly’s writing style and the characters in the story. The story was also told by three different views, Megan’s, the antagonist, and Brigit. I enjoyed the unique twist and especially liked Brigit’s point of view. This series will be going to the top of my cozy mystery list and I would love to thank Diane Kelly, St. Martin’s Press and Netgalley for an advanced copy of the book to review. It was fabulous! All opinions expressed for this review are unbiased and entirely my own.
