April 15, 2020I love this series and I don’t know why???
I’ve been binge reading this series in Amazon KU. I am really concerned that I continue to read, and love reading this series when the main character cannot seem to get it together. Amber has grown in her professional life to become a skilled investigator even though she still has trouble following the rules. Why can’t she grow as well in her personal life? Amber needs to grow up and get over her jealousy and trust issues. She is acting like an immature girl rather than a capable woman when it comes to romance. Something is going to have to give, hopefully in the next book.
As with the earlier books in this series, this story is a clean, fun, and easy read. On to the next book.

OH I like a well written cozey mystery with all sorts of developments and that's exactly what this mystery has not one but mystery but a few background stories that come to light all so well placed with an array of characters in the tourist town of Cornwall in the British Isles. The characters are vibrant full of secrets causing all kinds of intrigue and calamities .The plot starting right from the beginning draws you in keeping you captivated wanting to turn page after page until you've reached the unexpected and climatic conclusion. Acquire " Time &Tide " for intriguing and enjoyable entertainment .Kat

Another interesting read in the Amber Reed mystery series. First Charlie, then Dan and now Mel, another guy interested in Amber. She did a good job in this case and managed to save herself and her client and figure out the culprits. Now she is taking some time to rest and recuperate and try to figure out where she goes from here. Look forward to the next book.

Pieces Don't Fit
This is a riveting investigation for Amber and Charlie. As they gather clues they can't seem to make sense of them. Mel is the one who called their agency to get them on the case. His life seems to be in danger but they have no clue who is behind it. Fascinating case and enjoyable read.

English mystery
Interesting story taking place in rural England. Good characters with the twist on how things are done in England. I think the romance overshadowed the plot too much and kept the attention away from the mystery, the ending was still an unexpected surprise.

Love a mystery
I love books with cases to be solved. When you have agents searching out the reason why things are happening. Love the twists that happen. Whom is related to whom. Why people do what they do for money.
