Skeletons We Find
Not yet published
Expected 19 Jun 26A community renovation. A concealed skeleton. And a list of cold suspects …
When twins Chelsea and Michelle Watson help remodel the local single mom’s home, the last thing they expect to find is a skeleton. Construction grinds to a halt as rumors fly in Maple Springs about both the victim and the suspects.
When their friend’s deceased father becomes the prime suspect, Michelle can't sit back and let the investigation unfold without her. She is determined to track down every potential lead, even if it means putting herself in danger.
Chelsea tries to focus on finishing the renovation and keeping her sister out of trouble. But when mysterious notes threaten construction and tensions around the home escalate, even she can’t ignore the danger closing in.
In addition to the mystery testing the twins, tension with their boyfriends and clashing opinions add pressure as the investigation deepens.
As secrets surface and stress rises, Chelsea and Michelle must decide who to trust—both in their relationships and in a case that refuses to stay buried.

What to even say about this? It’s everything I love in a cozy mystery and then some! This truly is one of my favorite cozy mystery series….it keeps me guessing, and also has awesome, solid faith content. Faith content in cozy mysteries is actually extremely rare and this series hits it out of the park every single time. It has real life struggles, faith journeys and solid theology.
This story is their longest yet and, as much as I have enjoyed all of their stories, I think it’s safe to say this is my favorite one so far! There were so many ways this mystery could have gone, and it truly kept me guessing! There are lots of suspects, but not in an overwhelming way….it all fits so well and is brought to a great conclusion!
There is also some movement in the twins’ individual dating lives ~ It is always very clean and the twins’ faith dictates a lot of what they do in these situations as well.
I really appreciate the faith journeys & growth that both girls experience, it’s all so relatable! And oh my goodness, I LOVE their friend group…..the friend group might be my favorite part.
If you enjoy clean, cozy mysteries with a really good faith element then you MUST check out The Watson Twins series! I would definitely suggest reading the mini mysteries and the other full length novel “Transactions We Expose” before reading this one.

This was such a fun mystery. Lots of suspects, lots of drama, and a very strong faith message mixed throughout the entire book. I loved being back with all of these characters and seeing how they had grown. Both Chelsea and Michelle have a lot to work through as they navigate life and the adventures that Michelle drags them into. I love the way they balance one another with their extremes personalities, and how they complement one another by seeing what the other needs even when they don’t realize it themselves. I also appreciated the way they dealt with Michelle’s relationship with Jeremy and her realization that, while she cares for him deeply, she has to proceed with caution due to his lack of a relationship with God. Excited to see what comes next for this duo and their growing group of mystery solving friends!

Skeletons We Fins is part of a series. It can be read alone, but you may feel like you are missing out (like I did) on the inside scoop of how the characters relationships have developed.
The story is told from both the perspective of Chelsea, and from the perspective of twin sister Michelle.
I will do my best not to give away plot points or solutions to the mystery(s) in the course of this review.
At times I had a hard time keeping all the characters straight. There is a list of who is who at the beginning of the book, but on a Kindle that is less helpful than in a paper book that you can just flip easily to. Michelle and Chelsea each are in relationships, but also each have a couple of male friends, and sometimes its hard to keep track of who is who and how they relate all together because of switching between Chelsea and Michelle's perspectives.
At times I found Michelle's character a little bit hard to bear. She is a bit of a bull in a china shop, plowing ahead without thinking about the consequences or the effect of those actions/consequences on those around her.
There is also a lot going on in the story. In addition to the main "mystery" they want to solve, there is also several sub mysteries that generally seem to relate to the main plot, but can make it hard to follow at times. (Again, switching perspectives adds to the chaos because in one chapter you are thinking about an issue one way, but in the next chapter, you get it from another angle)
The themes of faith are strong in this book, but also at times feel a bit overbearing because of the tangle of bad doctrine and poor translation, as well as peoples own experiences clouding their understanding/use of scripture.
There is a lot of romantic relationship discussion in the book, which is fine, but sometimes it feels like because one sister has a super strong feeling about a particular area of relationships, that the other has almost the polar opposite stance. I can see how that can happen, but it felt a little tedious at times. I wish the sisters had been a little bit more balanced so they didn't always feel like they were just playing out opposing sides of a debate.
Overall, this was an enjoyable story and I enjoyed seeing how the mysteries unfolded and were resolved. I liked how the characters relationships grew and changed throughout the book.
It is a good read, and a nice cozy mystery that is clean and while the characters romances are prevalent parts of the story, they don't cross boundaries (generally) as you would expect in this genre of book.

April 28, 2026Disclaimer: I received an ARC copy in exchange for an honest review.
I’m not the biggest mystery person, but I’ve been enjoying this series a lot and therefore was happy to read this new book. My favourite part was the characters, hands down. I liked the banter (most of the time) and the interactions between the different characters. (Let the record show that I’m voting for Kyle and Shawn.) The last (bonus) chapter and the scene about telling the twins apart especially made me smile.
The first half left me a little disappointed regarding the themes. I was missing any mention that God would be the one to protect them. I was missing any mention of being thankful that God had protected them. And I was missing the whole element of praying about life decisions (i.e. who to date). I did appreciate the venture into the topic of truth and almost-truth and how that was explored in different characters. Definitely thought-provoking!
The story was engaging to the end, and the resolution surprised me, whilst still making sense. I’m looking forward to the next book!

I enjoyed this latest installment in the Chelsea and Michelle mysteries. The characters are fun to read and I like the two points of view, the real life relationships and struggles that were portrayed. The mystery was good and kept me guessing until the end.

Whew! That was quite a book! It was long (loved that!), it had more than one mystery, sort of (more things to figure out!), and it had a wonderful group of friends (favorite part!).
Chelsea and Michelle are both in relationships. I disliked the one relationship and have since it started. The other I never really liked, but it didn’t jar on me like the other one even though I’m getting a little annoyed by it.
And the mystery! I did get something figured out before the group did. And I made a guess about another thing and while it wasn’t quite right, it was much closer to the truth than others suspected, so that was fun.
There are a lot of vastly different views on issues in this book. Some good discussions about things like kissing and friendships, judging others and giving grace. I often found myself annoyed with Michelle even though in some areas I’m more like her than Chelsea. Michelle has very strong opinions and most of the time refuses to listen to anyone else who disagrees with her. But she loves passionately and wants to help those who are suffering and hurting. Chelsea annoyed me a few times because she wants to control and guide her twin as though she’s the mom, instead of speaking the truth in love and then letting the Lord work in Michelle. I can understand her fear that Michelle will do the wrong thing, but I’ve also been on the other side where someone comes across as judgmental instead of just loving and being there for you.
There were times in the book that I wasn’t sure I was going to like it because of things going on, but by the end, the characters had grown, I got to see things from multiple sides, and now I can’t wait to read the next book.

Review of advance copy received from Author
I have recently been looking for a Christian mystery series that has a cozy feel to it, and…The Watson Twin Mysteries Series did the trick! I love them so much. I read the mini mystery, Hours We Regret, a few days ago, and couldn’t believe how good it was. I love Chelsea and Michelle’s sister relationship. They remind me of a grown up version of Mary Kate and Ashley Olson from The New Adventures of Mary Kate and Ashley series. When I received a free copy of Skeletons We Find, I was very excited! I am also very happy to say that it was just as strong as the first book. The characters are funny, the romance is intriguing, and the mystery kept me guessing almost the entire time. I love the way the authors strategically place faith lined messages throughout the book. It felt natural, unlike some books where you feel that they have to make the characters suffer through horrible ordeals in order to make the message come out well. This felt very relatable. I highly recommend this book, as well as the rest of the series, to all Christian mystery lovers. It won’t disappoint!

ARC REVIEW
If I have not mentioned this before, you need to add this series to your TBR!!! It is vital for your mental health! Whenever I seem to have a bad reading slump, I remember the absolute joy I feel when reading a Chelsea Michelle mystery. The Watson twins and their friend group will forever make me giggle at what they get up to. And I wish I could join them!! This book was packed full of suspense and drama that will keep you guessing the whole way to the end! But if I must convince you to read this series, here are some pros (btw, there are no cons):
- The writing style is so easy to read that you don't notice you have inhaled half the book in one afternoon.
- You will relate to at least one of the characters in the group.
- They are always having a deep discussion about something faith related.
- They have unhinged conversations that leave you reeling with laughter or cringing from embarassment.
- There is a form at the end of each book so you can write down your thoughts and theories.

I really enjoyed reading this book. I like being able to try and solve the crime along with the Watson twins and the Dinner Detectives. I always have theories of who committed the crime, but with Chelsea Michelle's cozy mysteries, I'm usually guessing right up to the end just like the characters, which is fun because I usually figure out the whodunit early. It is fun to be surprised. The writing is great and I love the Dinner Detective friend group and their interactions. This series (and the mini books series that goes along with it) are best read in order because the character growth is a continuous arc from one book to the next. It is like a television show where each episode has its own plot that is complete by the end of the episode, but there are things that go for the entire season. This book has very clear biblical gospel messages throughout it which I love. I look forward to reading more books by Chelsea Michelle.

This story is a faith based mystery and as much as I enjoyed the mystery it actually felt to me that this book focuses a lot on relationships. There is a lot of tension in the sister relationship throughout this story. However, some eventually resolves, but the underlying dynamics still remain. Both sisters are also in relationships that seem to have their own problems and mix in a cold case and you have an interesting read. It was a bit like watching a hallmark mystery but more church time and talks about God.
I figured out the whole but was unsure of the why. Curiosity may have me reading more because of the mystery that still remains from book1. You may want to read all the stories to understand the storyline. I read the first two novellas before reading this and it helped.

Another mystery 👀—and this time it involves a dead body… a girl who died 17 years ago.
Michelle is once again risking her neck with her sleuthing, while Chelsea is determined not to get overly involved… though her attempts to “protect” her sister feel a lot like control.
And what about their boyfriends—are they really who they claim to be? 🤔
I really enjoyed this one! The suspense kept me hooked, and I loved seeing the dynamics within their friend group. More than just a mystery, it’s a story of forgiveness and redemption—and a reminder that God is a God of second chances. ✨

I love visiting the small-town atmosphere of Maple Springs with each new mystery! Chelsea and Michelle Watson have a great group of friends who support and encourage each other. In addition, the authors do a terrific job of making the characters come to life with witty comments, unique personalities, and even flaws. The plot will keep you guessing whodunit and make it hard to put down. My favorite part though, is the way their faith is incorporated into the story in a very organic way. I always feel inspired to pray more and spend more time reading my Bible after reading about the Twins' antics. Entertaining & Inspiring!

Skeletons We Find by Chelsea Michelle is a very enjoyable read! I have read each book in this series and each one gets better. The main characters develop and the mysteries keep one guessing and trying to solve before the end. The Dinner Detectives show wonderful teamwork and friendship in solving the mystery. I enjoy the twins and their silent communication as well as the fun verbal conversations. There is a strong faith element including grace and forgiveness. I also love Chelsea and Michelle's family being included as well as getting better acquainted with members in their small town. If you're looking for a fun, faith filled cozy mystery to read and try to solve, I highly recommend Skeletons We Find. I did receive an ARC to read and review.

Twin adult sisters with totally different personalities but very close. They have a great group of friends who help each other out. They are all helping out with renovating a house to turn it into a home for unwed mothers. While doing so, a body is found and the hunt for the identity of the victim and the killer is on. There is also someone trying to tell them that they believe it's against the laws of Christianity and bible verses start showing up in many places with warnings to stop.
The book has a nice plot except for the mistakes, the first one that confused me is the teams research for the killer. The house was built by Morris Cummings and sold to the Flores family after many revisions on the house plans. When we are in the confessing stage, the 'killer' says he bought it for his sister. Everyone should have jumped on that being wrong, 2nd mistake. Jeremy is not a Christian, yet one of the twins is in a hot and heavy relationship with him knowing that she cannot marry him. The other thing that got a bit much was all the bible thumping that went on in the story. The bible study sessions mentioned many times. Using bible verses in everyday conversation, like they had to prove to the reader that they knew their bible. A reference here or there is nice but so many feels like it's used to lengthen the book. Their works show that they are Christian, the rest is excess. I am a Christian and know better than to flood a book with bible quotes. The mystery is good enough to stand on its own, as is the story. This book earns 4*, I would do 3.5 if I could.

I think Chelsea Michelle has perfected the cozy mystery. Lots of questions, not all answered and realistic character development. And as always, Michelle gets herself into interesting scenarios. 😄
A good usage of Bible verses. Not slapping you in the face, but just people who know their Bible, so it comes up in their life situations. A biblical focus on forgiveness and second chances.
Super fun read to snuggle up with.
My only critique is that it seems a bit male heavy. Yes, the leads are women but they only have one other friend that's a woman. The rest are men and almost all are possible love interests.

Another cute and cozy mystery by Chelsea Michelle! If you like Christian suspense that keeps you turning page after page but doesn't make your heart beat out of your chest, this is the series for you!
I appreciated all of the spiritual lessons in this book as well. The forgiveness, the discussion of forbidden marriage between a believer and an unbeliever, the heartbreak in getting emotionally attached to someone you can't marry without disobedience to God, the dangers of legalism ... it was all good!
Can't wait for the next book!

I received an advanced reader copy from the author for my honest review.
I enjoyed this dual point of view format of twin sisters with very different personalities. The characters have depth and the storyline is interesting. It was very enjoyable to read. The best part for me is the relationship with Jesus as the foundation. Each character is imperfect and grows step by step. The bonus chapters at the end were well worth it.

I think this is the best book in this series so far. It was not a quick read and took me longer than normal to finish but it was entertaining from beginning to end. It has a strong Christian theme but displays God's grace and forgiveness rather than being preachy. The cast of characters is growing but they are all delightful in their quirkiness. I was gifted a copy of this book but the review is entirely voluntary.

Another fantastic Chelsea Michelle mystery! I have a lot of thoughts—can’t share them all because, ya know, spoilers😂
Per usual this story was super entertaining. The mystery was fantastic, and there’s a wonderful friend group. The themes and spiritual content are subtle, but it’s unfolding. I do wish we got to see some of the twins many personal walk with God more 🤔 they do pray and are faithful to be a part of their church.
I didn’t know who “did it” til the end! I love mysteries like that. The romance has us all on our toes. 😂 I have my opinions. 😉
Also, I have read these out of order and plan to go back and read the first few books. However, I am definitely invested! If you like a fun well written mystery that is Christian, definitely pick up this book (and series).

I enjoyed the Christian theme. It was an interesting read for sure. The ending completely surprised me. I’m looking forward to reading more from this author.

So fun! I could not put this down. I was trying to save it for a long airport layover and somehow got about 40% done before I left on the trip. Oops. But it did keep me occupied for several more hours while traveling.
As far as the mystery goes, this one for sure keeps you guessing until the very end. I also love the subplot mystery that’s carried through this whole series, and the relationship arcs. Excited to see where all that goes.
My only critique: this book is SO unrealistic.
Way too many eligible men around for this to seem real.
Just kidding! I love the Dinner Detectives and can’t wait to see what they’ll get into next.
I received an early free copy of this book (ARC) in exchange for an honest review.
