The only thing the three women had in common was their husband.
And, as of this morning, that they're each accused of his murder.
Blake Nelson moved onto a hidden stretch of land - a raw paradise in the wilds of Utah - where he lived with his three wives:
Rachel, the chief wife, obedient and doting to a fault.

EadieB Tina, the other wife, who is everything Rachel isn't.
And Emily, the youngest wife, who knows little else.
When their husband is found dead under the desert sun, the questions pile up.
But none of the widows know who would want to kill a good man like Blake.
Or, at least, that's what they'll tell the police...
This is a book about 3 Mormon wives who marry one man named Blake. It was not what I thought the book was about. 6mo

EadieB I thought it was a book written by Kate Quinn but I started it anyway and got about 1/2 through it and decided I couldn't read anymore so I DNF'd it. But I did look in the back of the book to find out who the killer was. So I ended up with 3 stars as that's what it meant to me. Glad I'm done with that book as I couldn't read anymore. 6mo

TheSpineView Great job! 6mo

The Dilemma | B.A. Paris

It‘s Livia‘s 40th birthday, and her husband Adam is throwing her the party of a lifetime to make up for the wedding they never had. Everyone she loves will be there, except her daughter Marnie, who‘s studying abroad. But Livia is secretly glad Marnie won‘t be there. Livia has recently uncovered a secret about their daughter which, if revealed, will shake

Andrew65, TheSpineView, TheAromaofBooks

EadieB the foundation of their family to its core. She needs to tell Adam, but she‘s waiting until the party is over so they can have this last happy time together.
Adam, meanwhile, has his own surprise for Livia: he‘s arranged for Marnie to secretly fly back for the party. But before Marnie arrives, Adam hears some terrible news. Now he too is faced with a dilemma: Does he share what he's learned with his wife? 6mo

EadieB Is hiding the truth the same as telling a lie? And how far are Adam and Livia willing to go to protect the ones they love—and give each other a last few hours of happiness?
I really liked this book a lot. Livia and Adam both had a surprise to tell after the party. When she broke the story she had for Adam, they both were talking about the same story but different events arose. Finally the truth was told but not to the anger that Livia held. 6mo

EadieB I don't want to tell what the secret was so you will have to read the book to find out. But the things that happen after the truth is let out shows us how they handled the surprise. It is a tear-jerking story so have the tissues ready. If you like a good cry then you need to read this book. I look forward to my next B.A. Paris book as I find her books amazing but not always liked by others. 6mo

What Darkness Brings: A Sebastian St. Cyr Mystery | C.S. Harris

London, September 1812. After a long night spent dealing with the tragic death of a former military comrade, a heart-sick Sebastian learns of a new calamity: Russell Yates, the dashing, one-time privateer who married Sebastian‘s former lover Kat Boleyn a year ago, has been found standing over the corpse of notorious London diamond merchant

EadieB Benjamin Eisler. Yates insists he is innocent, but he will surely hang unless Sebastian can unmask the real killer.
This was an excellent book in the series of Sebastian St. Cyr. I really did enjoy this book but it was a bit convoluted with a lot of stuff going on besides the murder. It was a bit slow in parts and had an occult happening that could have been cut from the book without missing it at all. 6mo

EadieB A lot of different suspects and the murderer escaped me until the very end. Harris could have given us more clues in the book so we would have been given a chance to guess the murderer. But I will give her 4 stars for this book and move on to the next St. Cyr book. 6mo

TheSpineView Great job!💜📖📚 6mo

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! 6mo

EadieB I really enjoyed reading this book and all the other humorous characters that were involved. The plot was one that led me to read all the way to the engaging ending that I didn't see coming. If you enjoy books with humorous characters then you will love this book. I look forward to reading another Mrs. Pargeter's books as I really did enjoy this one. 6mo
