Crime Writer by Vinnie Hansen Blog Tour and Book Review

 

I tore through this book … I was that invested. It’s an easy read, I thought, but Zoey … man, Zoey. What has she gotten herself into? You can see from the blurb where she lives, and that particular farm is owned by a fellow named Harvey. The why of Harvey letting Zoey live on his farm becomes clear when Rachelle is mentioned. There’s a story there.

Harvey also has a history with Ray. That’s an interesting twist to this tale.

Camille – Zoey’s mother. A not-so-great relationship, but when something happens to Camille, Zoey had to reevaluate their relationship. Being close to my own mom, I can’t imagine being at odds with her.

Anywho, Zoey finds herself in the middle of some big trouble and through this big trouble she meets Jimmy. She has some reservations about Jimmy, which I appreciated, as Zoey has some trust issues that run deep. To me, this made Zoey a very relatable, very realistic character.

One of the things I enjoyed about this tale is the realism that the author was able to paint through description. Zoey finding herself being chased by the bad guys and how she handled that, wending her way through Harvey’s fields, hiding behind trees or down a steep incline. I enjoyed reading about Zoey’s mistrust of Jimmy but ultimately deciding … I also enjoyed the backstory of Harvey, Ray, and Rachelle; I’m sure there’s more to their story. Harvey seemed like a gruff old man, but really deep down … plus, he had a dog, Rambo. I even enjoyed the animosity between Zoey and her mom until Zoey made her final realization about Camille.

I’m quite certain if there is a book two, Zoey will find herself chasing another story as she is a writer after all and it’ll be interesting to see how she gets herself out of another mess. And Harvey’s scheming? You’ll have to read that for yourself.

Canyon of Deceit by DiAnn Mills Blog Tour and Book Review

Therese and Blane find themselves immersed in a case where they are looking for a little girl, Alina. This case is also complicated by the fact that no one seemed to want to tell them the truth about what was really going on, most especially Alina’s father, Rurik.

They also found themselves attracted to each other, something that hadn’t died even though Therese had shut Blane down before.

What I really enjoy about this author’s writing is her style, the story she weaves coupled with the characters in their doubts and their beliefs. I like the fact that certain characters call upon their faith at the most unexpected times, in the good times, and most especially when they are faced with dangerous situations. The author is able to paint a picture that is so true to life when it comes to faith and how we call upon our own in times of trouble.

In this particular tale, I enjoyed reading about the father’s apparent deception, Alina’s bravery for such a small girl, and the ultimate outcome. This is truly a story of good versus bad, with the underlying question of who would win. I sort of figured out who was behind it all, but it took most of these pages to lead me there.
