Critiques

Lighthearted mystery with a dash of romance and suspense. When the offer comes to Sally Harrington to write a piece for Expectations, a high-end tabloid magazines, it seems too good to be true. She came home to small town Castleford, CT to take care of her mother. While she's working for the local paper and going with her high school sweetheart, she seems to be settling in. But that's the problem: she's settling -- and she's bored. So an opportunity to write an expose of Cassy Cochran TV network president and mix with the rich and powerful is a powerful temptation. Temptation and opportunities, decisions and mysteries, some going back 21 years to her father's death.
A light read, good characters, small town journalism vs. big city opportunities. Settling vs. striving toward a goal. An enjoyable read.

Just for the summer by Van Wormer, Laura
Investor banker retires at 32 and she's secretly investigating her late aunts estate in the Hamptons on Long Island.
After installing an alarm system in the guest house she and others hear the sirens, someone had gone through the locked door...
Lots of charity events and dinners for good causes that Mary Liz is able to attend with others. Many celebrities and others want her expertise of financial advice...
Erotic journals she discovers among other personal papers that must be destroyed. Amazing who is the murderer and all the events leading from the clues.
I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device).

Definitely not as good as her other books. This was hard to read as it was too busy and difficult to keep up with the story line.
