Kylie Berry Mysteries #7
A Berry Horrible Holiday
Welcome to The Berry Home A Berry Horrible Holiday
Kylie’s kinda-sorta boyfriend Joel convinces her to go on a romantic holiday with him… But surprise! Zoey shows up with Brad in tow!
"Winters will have you giggling into your book!"
If having your best friend and other romantic interest show up doesn’t put a damper on romance, a dead body certainly will... And that’s just what Kylie discovers.
Who could’ve killed Dan, a man with many secrets and a dark past?
At a lovely Bed And Breakfast where all the guests seem to be hiding something, can Kylie emerge unscathed and prove the identity of the real killer?
And more worrisomely, who is the attractive local sheriff, and why do both Brad and Joel seem so interested in her?

I like this series, but for the past 7 books, Kylie has been kissing both Jack and Brad and it gets a little bit bord. Come on, let's get a move on...

Another amusing visit with Kylie! Death follows her everywhere, even on vacation. She goes for a romantic weekend with Joel but Brad & Zoe follow. When a body is found then Kylie is on the case. Very entertaining story. Can't go wrong with a Kylie Berry story!

Another funny who done it
So Kylie is now famous in her new town for being a body magnet and everyone expects her to solve the crimes that nobody else can. Her and Joel head out of state for some alone time but that gets interrupted by her best friend and other suitor and yes, a dead body. It was a great book, full of humor and mystery.

A Horrible Holiday for Kylie
A Berry Horrible Holiday has Kylie going out of down with one of her suitors, Joel, only to stubble into a dead body. This book is written differently than the previous of the series, and it’s hard to describe how. Kylie is on her own more and the location is different yet it is full of mystery not only of the dead guy mystery but also that of what is happening at the cafe which leads to the ending of this book. The killer is both a surprise yet also can be guessed, and then when back at the cafe there is the start of another mystery and very end leaves the reader saying “What”!!!!!

A Romantic Getaway, Berry-style
This episode sees Kylie and Joel taking their weekend away with surprising consequences. You'll lose yourself in plot twists and find yourself saying, wait, whaat? Lots of Kylie's personality comes out as people surprise her and she surprises herself with jealousy, desire, hate, fear, and envy. An excellent story with a light touch of humor.

Oh, My, Gosh The Twist!
If this is your first foray into the world of Kylie Berry please stop and begin with A Berry Deadly Homecoming. Great Plot, fabulous characters, an ending I Did Not See coming, and witty dialogue. While Winters plot is a "little" formula-matic, her characters are funny and fresh. Her plots wonderfully devine.

opposite attracts
I can say that I really like the character of Zoey and having a friend like Kylie also all the people that seem to be attracted to her was really interesting but on this particular book I knew who was doing the murdering. Also didn’t surprise me about detective Grayson. Had feelings for Kylie.

How does she do it?
AR Winters is amazing. I love all her characters along with her books. The best part is she writes fast. I never have to wait for a year to catch up with my new friends. Thank you for your books.

Love!!!!!!
I have enjoyed every single Berry book I’ve read (& the Cruise books too), but this one is my favorite. Don’t read it first, because I love these characters & you need all the stories to really understand them- but definitely read them all until you get to this one.

Oh my. Where to start. This story has amusing scenes along with some unexpected twists and turns. I did deduct one star because the book needs better editing; the errors detracted from the story. Looking forward to the next book!

It ended up ok.
But tell me, how is possible that the protagonist has four potential paramours all vying for her attention?

It was a holiday from ******
Nothing is ever easy. Love the Justice League and Zoey is always fun. Characters perfect and yet……… How can you juggle so many men and not feel guilty about it.

Fun read
I liked the storyline of this book. The twists and turns were fun and kept me guessing. Needs a bit more comedy, although this book had a little more than the others.
