Kelly Utt

Her Deepest Fear (Rosemary Run, #1), my fourteenth read from author Kelly Utt. A well-written, 248-page pulse-pounding, entertaining romantic suspense read, with intriguing, well-developed characters that leave you panting for more. I couldn't turn pages fast enough, starting & completing it in one sitting. I'm getting used to Utt's series style of writing. Introduce new characters in each book, with a common thread tying the books together. “I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review." The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it. I'll be reading more from this author. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).… (meer)

4. THE WOMAN ON SEAGLASS LANE

I’m a little torn on this book. At first I didn’t care for it at all and thought it was a pretty dumb storyline. I couldn’t get into the characters and thought Tom was nuts for putting up with his wife’s old boyfriend from college staying at their house. I continued to read it and still wasn’t getting a good feeling about it and was surprised because I have always liked the author's books and the Rosemary Run Thriller series. Then I got the shock of my life with the ending. I won’t spoil it for anyone but it was the best part of the book. This one may not be the best but I’ll continue to read the author's books.… (meer)
