Too much sex!

I don’t consider myself a prude, but I prefer my police and mystery stories not to be interspersed with explicit sex scenes the sometimes last for my entire 40 minute commute.

What a great group of novels.

I thoroughly enjoyed this series of novels. Well written and well narrated. I couldn't wait to listen and wished there were more now that I have finished them. Good stories.

Not My Cup Of Tea

Sorry, I could not finish book one of this multiple book volume. The story did not hold my interest and I became bored with it.

Good story line to much sex my taste

I like the story okay. Good story line. Good debrief of characters.

The sex was too much in the first book a bit better in the following books. I like romance I just don't like a blow by blow. It takes from the story for me.

Collection of cliches

The heroine is so dumb she forgets to eat but the hero is attracted to her beyond any woman on earth. Yikes

Enjoyed the crime part

I really enjoyed the crime and mystery and Randy, but Sarah was such a selfish person I wanted to slap her. Got halfway through the second book and couldn’t stand her petulance any longer. I sincerely hope Randy kicked her to the curb and lived happily ever after. Not to be recommended.

good story with some cheese

I like mystery romances and don't mind it having a few cheesey moments. I was able to listen but by the end of all 4 books you kinda already know what was going to happen. still an good book not my favorite but was worth a listen.

Great storyline

I enjoyed the storyline. The characters were believable and the story went along wanting wanting to know what was going to happen next.

The only thing that sort of bothered me I felt that the sexual scenes were a bit explicit, Less sex more storyline. Other than that I really enjoyed the series.

Thank you for several hours of enjoying the story.

Series books 3 & 4 are a variation of book 1 - sadly very predictable

Book 1 & most of book 2 while a bit predictable, were still worth a listen. However, books 3 & 4 were essentially repeats of elements of the first 2 books. Ended up being very boring and finally stopped listening to book 4 after a couple of hours. I was tired of hearing the same story & plot yet again. Which is too bad as the author clearly has talent, just needs to step out of predictability & move into new territory.
I would give a series from this author another try, hoping that more originality is weaved into each book.

great police series!

This is the full series of the Pine Hills Police and I enjoyed my binge listen! Through books one to three, we follow along with Detectives Detwiler and Kovak as they solve various crimes. In book four, we catch up with one of the police officers that we met in book one...she has moved to Florida. Each book is well written, with some steamy moments, but the romance does not overpower the story. Excellent narration keeps you interested in the stories that you barely realize that you've been listening for 40 hrs! Highly recommend this series.
I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Great Disappointment

I think this is the Noddy and Big Ears of crime fiction. The story was bland and predictable and the love interest and dialogue were just cringeworthy. I purchased this as a 4 book offer - I managed to complete the first book - just to see if there was any improvement as the book progressed. There wasn't. I cannot read the following books.
