Holiday Homecoming Secrets

GIVEAWAY
EASON, LYNETTE
HOLIDAY HOMECOMING SECRETS

A man from her past is back -- to help her solve a holiday murder case.

A friend is missing and presumed dead, and detective Jade Hollis is determined to track down the killer. To do that she must team up with private investigator Bryce Kingsley -- who doesn't know he is the father of her child. But she'll have to put personal secrets aside because the killer will strike again to keep the truth from being exposed.

My Review:

'Tis the season for holiday mayhem and Lynette Eason sure knows how to stir things up! Multiple secrets converge during the 'hap-happiest time of the year' causing chaos and confusion and broken hearts. I figured some of it out -- not all though -- and I enjoyed every wicked twist and hair-raising turn. Eason knows how to plant clues and flaunt red herrings with the best.

I'll admit to being a bit worried about the romance because I'm not a fan of the secret baby trope. Every time I say that though, an author wows me with their creative cleverness and that was the case with Holiday Homecoming Secrets. I bought the book because...Lynette Eason! (cue the rabid fangirling!) but I told Jade she had some explaining to do before I could give her a pass and she delivered. Eason has brought depth and compassion and heartbreaking honesty to this reunion romance. I'm impressed. And repentant. Note to self: never say never. :-)

And there's a dog, people!!! Sasha, a great hulking hairy beast of undying love with canny abilities. Throw in Christmas, cute kids and a maniacal killer on the loose and a good time is guaranteed to be had by all!
