based on that paragraph. Please feel free to join in, First Chapter~First Paragraph~Tuesday Intros.
"Murder trumps everything" Mike Chapman turned his back and stared out the window, talking to me but unwilling to make eye contact. "What do you mean?" I asked. Darkness had enveloped my Vineyard landscape a bit earlier each evening as November crept up on us. The late fall also brought a bone-deep chill and the treat of serious frost. "Like you don't know, Coop?" "Of course I do, in general. But why did you say that now, Mike? Before we have dinner. Before we get into bed."

"You think you're ready to go it alone?" Mike asked, rocking me gently from side to side in his long arms. "Sooner or later I have to, don't I? Tomorrow's as good as any other day."

I keep meaning to read this series. I think I read the first book way, way back. And then...well...didn't continue. So many books now. Maybe I'll skip over and begin here. LOL
I'm also wondering why he would say that...just before dinner and bed. I'm very curious! Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog.
I read the first two books a long time ago and just stopped. I picked up one of the books at the library this year and found it rather dated and didn't read it, but I've heard the series gets much better as it goes along, and I think I might just pick up one of the most recent & start from there (and figure out what happened to the characters in the past, if possible).
I like the opening paragraph and would like to read more. But - book #18? Hopefully, it doesn't have to be read in order.
I've read and enjoyed a few of this author's books, so I'd keep reading.
The timing does raise some questions.
I like the intro, I'd read more.
I get busy and lose track of some of the series I'm reading. Way behind on this one and I do love her stories.

Uh oh. Sounds like an uncomfortable evening. Hope you enjoy the book.
I so enjoy these books. I am behind though, which is sad because it was once the one series I was caught up with. Must remedy that!
This sounds pretty good, like I want to know more about the situation that led to this conversation. Thanks for sharing!
