Pacific Northwest

This boxed set was fun and they had a lot to over come in book 1 but by book 2 it was smooth sailing. I like that the stories had some uniqueness to each one. Fun listen!

Variety, Mystery, Emotion, A Great Series!

I loved this series! Six separate, stand alone stories, plus an enthralling prequel that brings a beautiful finish to the set! Lily Pine and her husband Marty had dreams … dreams that Marty sadly did not live to see come to fruition. Lily’s mission becomes to see that dream through, for both of them! Unfortunately … bodies have a way of well … getting in the way, and where there’s bodies, there’s suspicion, suspects, truths, lies, and evidence to be sought and found! Who would have guessed that Lily has a bit of a knack! What’s more, Lily and Marty have a daughter… a smart … savvy … investigative reporter daughter, who delights in helping Lily find the answers! Together, aided by a standout cast of friends, coworkers, law enforcement, and the, oh so necessary ne’er do well’s, and nefarious, this fabulously written collection kept me engaged, entertained, and delightfully playing armchair detective for over eighteen hours! Woven through the mysteries are Lily’s and Judy’s stories of moving forward. The individual mysteries of each book are interesting, entertaining, and easy to follow. They are beautifully written with superb scene setting and beautiful, believable dialogue. The flow is smooth, and the feeling emotionally satisfying. The characters, both supporting, and those added as the “nefarious” for each individual story, are fully developed and beautifully defined. I loved coming to know them! A few I felt tremendous sympathy for, a few not, but I’m sure that was by design, and I’m not telling! As you listen, you’ll see, and I’ve no doubt you’ll agree! The characters and story came beautifully alive thanks to emotionally appropriate, dynamic narration that left no doubt what the characters were thinking, or feeling, keeping me “as one” with these wonderful stories. I really enjoyed each and every one fully and thoroughly! The entire series was fantastic! Five star fantastic. I loved it!

Excellent books and series!

After her husband’s death, Lilly Pine uproots herself from Ohio to Washington State to fulfill their dream of opening a restaurant overlooking the bay. In each of these books, there is a different mystery, amateur investigations, humor, emotion, friendship and cooking. I enjoyed each one in order, but they can easily be read as stand-alone books because each mystery is wrapped up before the end of the book. That being said, I enjoyed the character and relationship development over the course of the series. The narration by Jeff Moon is excellent. He performed all the characters with unique voices and brought them and the stories to life. I received a free audiobook code for my honest review.

Great Mysteries

I enjoyed this box set of mysteries. I like the mother and daughter sleuths. Jeff Moon narrated wonderfully.

Entertaining cozy mysteries

I enjoyed all 6 stories and characters. Each one had their own twists. Recipes at the end. The narration of the voices was perfect! Highly, highly recommend! Can’t wait to see how the stories continues.
