I love Cherry Tucker!

I am so glad this is finally available on Audible. I really enjoy this series. I had listened to the first two books some time ago. The narrator is different, but still really good. I like how Cherry cares for others, but isn't a doormat, is spunky, but not obnoxious. I also love her bejeweled shirts! She is just being herself. I think Larissa Reinhart does a great job writing. I listen to a lot of books, and this really kept me interested. I like that it had tension without a lot of violence. I hope the whole series will be available on audio.

Sweet Southern Mystery

This is the third book in the Cherry Tucker cozy mystery series. Cherry lives in small town Georgia where she is trying to make a living as an artist. Unfortunately, Cherry just cannot keep out of trouble. She is called in to the local police to draw a sketch of a murder suspect from a witness description. There begins a series of events which leads Cherry to try to solve a local truck hijacking turned murder. Between investigating, having a local competitor artist try to ruin her reputation, having her house overrun with family and ex-husbands and boyfriends, and a painting commission by a sketchy foreigner has Cherry in overdrive, never mind danger.

This is a delightful Southern mystery with a lot of sass and humor. Joan Dukore does an excellent job narrating this book. She has the Southern accent down pat and gives each character their own unique personality. I very much enjoyed the story and the end was a definite surprise. If you are looking for a sweet cozy mystery, this series fills the bill.

Entertaining cozy mystery

Cherry Tucker’s art career is on the rise. Although book three in the series it can easily be listened to as a stand alone. Requested to do a sketch by the sheriff of Halo, Georgia of a suspected hijacker, it quickly tumbles in to danger when her sketch of the suspect is linked to a murder.

Cherry now has to solve the case of hand in taking on this investigation she will put everything she loves and holds dear to her at risk, including the job she has fought so hard to be successful at.

The characters are quirky and the situations she finds herself in make for some amusing moments. There were numerous twists and turns in and I admit I was caught off guard on a couple of occasions. The suspense built throughout and the addition of some junior sleuths added to the witty banter that was throughout the story.

Will Cherry be able to solve the case? The narrator Joan Dukore really brought this story to life for me. Her voice was easy to listen to and I thought she did justice to the story and the characters.

Cherry's up to no good!

What a great little mystery! It was clean, funny and very entertaining! I highly recommend listening or reading this delightful story.

Narrator change

Couldn't finish the series after the narrator change with the 3rd book. I'll try reading it instead.
