This reads more like a category romance than a mystery, and what mystery there is, is not explained. It comes out of left field with no real conclusion, thanks to the fashion these days of giving part of a book away for free and charging for the rest. Why not give away a book free and then trust that it's good enough to have readers look for other books under your name?I wasn't sure I liked the characters. The writing was nice and readable and I wanted to get behind the heroine, but she was an odd mix. She was obviously spiritual, quoting from the Bible and praying, which you'd think meant she was humble and loved her neighbor. Instead she's judgmental of her neighbor (hoping one tablemate will fail publicly and humiliate herself and wanting to be there gloating when it happened) and she's not at all humble, getting miffed when a good looking guy won't play up to her and is, instead, anti-social...exactly what she's been since she came on board. (So she's also a hypocrite.) But the thing that really got me was when she stated that if she died there was no doubt she'd go to heaven. First, if that's true, why is she terrified of dying? And second, isn't it up to God, not us, to decide who goes to heaven? What particular reason would he have for taking her to heaven? What role would she have? Isn't heaven always described in the Bible as a place of administration and government? She doesn't seem qualified for anything like that.But aside from those, probably too unconventional and arcane, questions, there's also the fact that she's romancing one guy and getting excited about his kisses one minute and in the next, after he gets dragged away at gunpoint, she immediately switches to hottie number two and gets excited about his kisses!
