This book picks up just a few days after the end of the previous book and focuses a little more on the romance aspect than the paranormal aspects of the previous books. But with how things ended in book two, it makes sense and there are other plot elements woven through that make story not feel melodramatic and that series has lost focus. 

   The mystery that needed to be solved in this book wasn't what I expected, and at every turn, it became more clear that it was something rather mundane at work with the missing stepson. Even though the mystery didn't unfold the way I thought it was going to, it was still engaging and I enjoyed watching the mystery unfold, learning all the secrets that certain characters tried to keep hidden. Had me wondering how those would be revealed later on, and if Charlie would have the nerve to use it as leverage to keep certain people off her back. 

   I really enjoyed the investigating, seeing Charlie and Lincoln work together, and bringing Charlie (Charlotte) and Lincoln together more. Them coming together required both of them to grow. It required Charlie to step back and allow Lincoln to come to her when he was ready and required Lincoln to stop pushing people away. Lincoln in particular learns to trust others more, and that he doesn't have to work alone on everything.

   I hope to get to the next book soon. These are quick reads, but I kind of want to read them slowly, since they do go by so quickly. I read the synopsis of future books, so I know vaguely where things end up, but I have no idea how they get there, and I am excited to find out.
