Lilah Love by Lisa Renee Jones - books 1 to 8

Posted

I hadn't come across Lisa Renee Jones before but couldn't resists this boxset when it came up on Netgalley - EIGHT books in one go and no wait in-between!!!

Reading through the whole series, I feel that you really need to read them as pairs to avoid any frustrating cliff hangers. All books build on each other, and the storyline felt more 'complete' after every second book.

Murder Notes (1) and Murder Girl (2)

Murder Notes provides a fantastic start to the Lilah Love series. All the key characters are introduced. 

Lilah is the sought after profiler at the FBI. She has a cunning way to 'speak with' dead bodies and to think like a killer. She also has a romantic past with Kane, who we're repeatedly told is NOT the lead of the Mendez cartel...

Other key characters include Lilah's family who all work for the police force and not really approve of her links with Kane. We are also introduced to the many victims and their families as Lilah is trying to follow leads in her unconventional way. 

Love Me Dead (3) and Love Kills (4)

Next up is Love Me Dead where the Umbrella Man is causing chaos. Lilah isn't great with blood and there is a lot of it in these two books; hence the reference to the murderer as the Umbrella Man.

Bloody Vows (5) and Bloody Love (6)

The relationship between Lilah and Kane is developing and they get engaged, again. Lilah is called into a case with a murdered woman wearing a wedding dress, and it feels all too personal. There is also an attempt to take Kane's life in a somewhat spectacular fashion.

Happy Death Day (7) and The Party Is Over (8)

Just back from her honeymoon Lilah is thrown into a new murder case which soon becomes another few. All of them has taken inspiration from horror movies. 

The tension between Lilah and the cartel is growing and we have a few confrontations. Without giving anything away, I must just say that the ending to Book 8 makes me NEED Book 9! 

Books 9 and 10!

Book NINE, The ghost assassin is due to be published on 13 July this year (2023). Book TEN, Agent vs Assassin, is also in the works. You can pre-order both of them now!

The Harbour Lights Mystery by Emylia Hall

Posted
Lovely, laid back off-season Cornwall is the scene for The Harbour Lights Mystery written by Emylia Hall. It's the second book about the Shell House Detectives, but you can read it standalone (although you may like it as much as I did and read the first book in the series afterwards!). December in Cornwall and there are probably more locals than tourists attending when the famous Christmas lights are turned on in Mousehole harbour.  Ally, one half of the Shell House Detectives, is watching the lights with her friend Gus and she's worrying that he may be after more than friendship. Anything that was about to be said is abruptly stopped when there is a piercing scream ripping through the darkness. Joining the crowds, Ally finds out that someone has been brutally murdered and dumped in a fisherman’s boat. It turns out that the victim is the not so very popular chef JP Sharpe, but what has Ally and her detective partner intrigued is an unfinished letter found in Sharpe's coat p...

For the Love of Coffee by Fiona Woodifield

Posted
Romilly is dreaming of something better but is not quite sure what that might be. All she knows is that remaining in her marriage is not where she wants to be. She decides to take her two daughters and run away from it all.  Finding a safe haven in Melstock, her childhood holiday place, she tries to create a new life. She lands a job at the coffee factory where she rather quickly suggests improvements to their marketing and profitability, but it turns out that the owners are adamant on selling. Mark Whittaker, the rather two-faced and abrupt owner of the local country estate and all-round in charge of the area, takes an interest in Romilly in his own eccentric ways. In typical family life, one of the daughters is being bullied at school and the other one has a teacher who's downright hostile to Romilly. Navigating all the new challenges, including her ex who keeps popping up, Romilly has plenty on her plate. This is a feel-good story with a HEA for all of those who love close-knit ...
