Resumen del Editor

There's no denying trouble finds Rose Gardner like a divining rod finds water, especially when Rose finds herself in the middle of a bank robbery. But after the robbers steal her deposit bag - containing a large amount of cash - she soon finds out that thanks to her sister Violet's financial mismanagement, trouble is threatening her business as well.

To top it off, Rose's ex-boyfriend Joe Simmons has moved back to Henryetta to fill the chief deputy sheriff position. Rose's involvement as a witness is the perfect opportunity for Joe to reinsert himself into her life. But Mason Deveraux, Fenton County Assistant District Attorney and Rose's new boyfriend, has waited too long for Rose to give her up without a fight.

Rose's pregnant best friend, Neely Kate, suggests they find the robbers using Rose's visions and Neely Kate's knowledge about everything in town. The women are soon hot on the trail of the stolen money, but Rose is caught off guard when Neely Kate's snoopiness detects the biggest complication of all: Rose might be expecting a baby of her own.

narrator

I have to admit that I like the narrator that did the first few books with the thick southern accent betrer.

Another great read.

Rose and other characters are great. Can't wait to read the next book. Fast paced.

Complications indeed

If there is trouble within a 50 mile radius ... It always finds Rose. A twist on my emotions and unexpected conclusion. Can't wait for the next one.

love this books

they just are not the same with the new narrator reading but I'm starting to get used to her. the "twang" isn't as good the book however is beautifully written. She just gets better and better

Come on, how many things can go wrong?

Most of the other books were better. I am still waiting to find out who destroyed the nursery. Is Rose ever going to ask her sister if she's still seeing the mayor? The narration was really very well done.

More Rose, more danger and more fun

I just love Rose and her the semi-dangerous adventures - her quirkiness, her stumbling accidentally on crimes, her naiveté, and her good heartedness. Like the other books in this series, this story is beautifully written and expertly delivered. Rose is a 24 year old women living in a nosy closed minded small town. She experiences visions that she’s compelled to share with the person she has them of. In this story, Rose is continuing to learn about who she is and how to live her life with friends, a boyfriend, tension with her sister, and an issues with her business. In this story, Rose, of course, finds herself suddenly in the middle of intrigue and danger when she is in the bank when there is a robbery and without her stolen deposit Rose could lose her business. While she tries to get her money back, she continues to deal with lots of unresolved issues in her life. Mason, Joe, Violet, Jonah, Neely Kate, and Bruce Wayne again play important secondary roles and help the story progress and Rose’s character grow. The book has a little bit of everything - sweet moments, exciting action, danger, family drama, painful pasts, mystery, plot twists, imperfect characters, and all the big feels - laughing, crying, swooning, cringing, teeth gritting, angry stomping, hyperventilating, and cheering. I cannot wait to read what happens next in Rose’s life.

Shannon McManus did a great job narrating the story and characters into life with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly.

Fun and addictive series!

Oh! crappy-doodles! I’m totally hooked! What a fun and addictive series. I want Rose to be my best friend and I can’t wait to dive into the next story. I’m loving the narration on the audiobooks.
-5 Stars-

Went too far

I have enjoyed the development of this series until this book. The misogyny that Joe shows and that the author seems to think is cute or clever is an absolute turn off to me. I don't know any woman who would think it was cute or clever If someone acted like that towards her .
Using borderline stalking behavior further her plot is an insult. I won't read anymore for work.p

A little off from last one

More drama, with personal lives, not a lot of drama with the suspense! It was decent.

Obsessive much?

It’s seems that most of the story is about the obsessive nature of Rose’s ex-boyfriend, Rose’s inability to cut him out of her life and the lack of acknowledgement of just how unhealthy his actions are.

I became so annoyed with the repetitive of this are of the story that I started skipping ahead to avoid this part of the story. I found it distracting from what could otherwise be a enjoyable and fun listen.
