Sarah accompanies her husband Jack on a trip to his hometown after his Aunt Julia is seriously injured in a fall. Aunt Julia is in a coma and shortly after they arrive she dies. Jack's sister Amy is arrested for pushing her Aunt Julia. Sarah soon discovers that everything Jack has told her about his life in Penny Gate and his parents accident is a lie. Evidence points to Amy and as the secrets of the past come out, it also points to Jack. Sarah's background in investigative reporting pushes her to find out everything she can and it puts her in danger. While the suspects are few, it kept me guessing to the end. Not as great as her other books, but a solid read.

A novella featuring the characters Warren and Bridgette from Maybe Someday. We learn their backgrounds and how they became to be roommates and maybe a couple. Best if read along with Maybe Someday
This fan fiction had me laughing more with each outrageous chapter. Chloe is an intern with a horrible boss that is gorgeous. She just wants to finish her MBA and move on. There is something about his sharp, hardworking intern that gets under his skin. When he decides to do something about it the sparks fly. A total fluff read.

January is gone and Spring is that much closer. January was a good reading month for me and I am ahead of my reading goal. Nice to get off to a good start. Our grand daughter is due in three weeks! I totally expect time to slow down, but you never know.

I'm glad January is over, I'm so ready for spring! I've been curious about the Heather Gudenkauf book, I've seen it around a bit.
Happy Sunday!
I want to read Missing Pieces. Sorry to hear it isn't as good as some of her others. The Susan Mallery book also sounds good.
Hope you have a great week!
Oh what! A grand daughter on the way, how exciting. You had a great reading week, some of the books I recognise and have read or will read. Enjoying Susan Mallery's one at moment - full of drama!
Nice books. I read Missing Pieces and really liked it. Hope you enjoy them all. Congrats on the Granddaughter. I was just blessed with a grandson on the 15th of December.

I stopped reading Elizabeth Lowell for a while, but this one looks good, I may have to come back to her!
You and Only You looks like a good one. Enjoy your week
Nice to hear about Missing Pieces. I want to read that one soon. An author that I've meant to read, but haven't yet. Oh and I bet you guys are so excited about the new little miss to come. So exciting!
What a great reading week! You must be so excited about your granddaughter's arrival... three weeks will go quickly:)
I loved Missing Pieces, and it was different from her other books...but it kept me engaged throughout.
I need to decide the order in which to buy and read the Colleen Hoover books. I guess I should go to the author's page and plan it, right?
Thanks for sharing...and here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
What an exciting time for you, so glad you enjoyed your reading.
Ooh, a granddaughter coming-- I didn't know that, you must be over the moon with joy! Your little guy seems very personable and cute from what I've seen and heard about him.
I might read that Elizabeth Lowell, have read a book by her before, and too bad the Heather Gudenkauf wasn't a stronger plot, but I have read all of hers and enjoy them, so will check the library for this one, thanks!
I'm currently reading a Heather Gudenkauf books, although an older title. I'm keen to discover some of her new work though.
I hope February proves to be just as good a reading month for you.
Reading With Jade
Maybe Not is the only book that you mentioned that I'm familiar with! I love Colleen Hoover! Have a great week!

Burned Bridges sounds like a lot of fun. I bet a lot of people can relate to it.
I just reviewed Missing Pieces today and someone else commented that it wasn't as good as her other books. (This was the first I'd read!)
And the Elizabeth Lowell caught my eye as I didn't know she had a new one out. (Am trying to remember if she writes a series...)
January was a great month for me also, I am so pleased to be back.
I agree Missing Pieces was a solid read but not at the same level as her others, still a favourite author for me.
They all look like awesome titles. Have fun reading them!
Burned Bridges looks good. I LOVED Missing Pieces.
Going to check out what you thought.
I hope you are having a good week.
Happy Wednesday!!
