A friend suggested this book to me and I love mysteries, so I decided to give it a chance. The book begins by telling the reader about Ronnie Lake, who is in her 50s and Juliana is a very secretive woman. Ronnie has recently divorced her husband and is shocked when her niece, Laura calls her. It seems that her father, Frank is in a new relationship with a woman named Juliana Wentworth. It turns out that Juliana’s mother actually worked with Ronnie’s family years ago. There was a lot of trouble with Juliana and her family and now it seems very strange that Frank would be involved romantically with her.

Juliana and Frank have gotten so close that she moved into his farmhouse to be closer to him. Laura admitted that she actually likes Juliana now and this strikes Ronnie as shocking. Not only that, but Laura wasn’t sure that she should have told Ronnie about all of these secrets that Frank had been keeping. Ronnie decides that she wants to start investigating Juliana to see what her motives truly are with Frank. What she finds doesn’t exactly make her happy.

As Ronnie dives deeper into Juliana’s world, she discovers some very interesting facts about her and wants to do her best to try and persuade Frank to change his mind about her. She doesn’t want them together and she surely doesn’t want them to get married. She has a little help from her friend, Will Benson, but it turns out that things just keep getting worse!

I won’t give away too many spoilers because this book was a very good read. I really enjoyed this story and I feel like I will start to read more from this author. The characters were developed incredibly well and it was great to have such a strong female lead. The twists and turns in this book kept me reading and I feel like I will go back for a second read in case there were portions that I forgot or missed.

Overall, this book is well written, easy to read, and engaged me the entire length of it. I would highly recommend it to those who love true crime, mysteries, and suspense. This is why I am giving it five stars. Be sure to check out the other books in this series by the author, Nikki Danforth. I’ll be moving on to her next one today!

I enjoyed this book, which was quite gripping at times and had me turning the pages to see what happens next. I think Ronnie acts in the way most of us would like to in that situation, not always thinking of the consequences and getting in a few pickles along the way. I felt there was plenty of detail at the beginning to get us hooked and eager to know the end, plenty of action in the middle with some twists and turns. However, I was ever so slightly disappointed with the way it ended. I felt a bit more information there would have wrapped it up nicely. It is still very much worth a read.

Summary
Mrs. Veronica Lake (Ronnie Lake), a new divorcee, received an urgent call from her niece (Laura) regarding her father's (Frank) new relationship with Juliana Wentworth. Juliana 'a mother worked for Ronnie Lake's family, the Rutherfords. They lived on Meadow Farm and her mother, Rosa Gonzalez Garcia worked for their family as a housekeeper/chef. That is the beginning of of the saga of Juliana Wentworth. Following the accusation of thievery against her daughter, Maria-Teresa (Juliana) leveled by her employer's daughter, Rosa Garcia and her daughter left the farm. The two moved to Pennsylvania to live with family. Maria-Teresa Garcia changed her name to Teresa Gonzalez and started a gang with her cousins, Bobby and Joe Taylor. The three were arrested after a burglary spree. After the three were released from their sentences the three, Teresa,Joe and Bobby went their separate ways in the foster care system. Teresa also known as Juliana ran away from a group home and fell off the face the earth. Her cousins also grew up and took different life directions or so everyone thought. Bobby Taylor, her one cousin was in and out of prison after his first bout of incarceration. Joe Taylor came out and appears to have turned his life around.
Teresa Gonzalez ran away to Florida to work at Disney World. Soon after that she changed her name to Julie Jones. While at Disney, she worked her way up the ranks while studying for her GED. She got offered a job by a lady who gave her her start in New York City. While there she excelled in school and work. Julie became Juliana. She met and fell in love with John Palmer,an entrepreneur who taught her chess. Although it was against the rules, she began dating him and they fell in love. They two, John and Juliana got engaged. However, before they walked down the aisle, she ran away.
Fast forward, Juliana Wentworth met Frank Rutherford and the two began dating. It has become serious. Juliana has moved into the farmhouse in New Jersey. All to the chagrin of the daughter, Laura, who has actually grown to like her. Laura noticed that Juliana is unhappy about some recent events. Ronnie Lake wanting to keep her family safe, and because she just went through a divorce decided to help her niece out. Using her skills as an amateur private investigator, her connections along with her private investigator friend, Will Benson, she learns about Juliana and the exact situation she finds herself in. Along the way, she becomes estranged from her family. Although upset with her brother, it wasn't until her encounter with Bobby Taylor at Meadow Farm that she confronted, questioned and offered help to Juliana. She was refused. Then certain events brought everything to the breaking point.
Did she, Ronnie Lake, help? She decided to intervene and help her future sister-in-law, possible. At the end of the novel, the family is saved. Juliana and Ronnie Lake end up friends.
Review
I gave.this book four and a half stars. First, I liked the story written by this author. It is my first book by her. She has a strong story core, which she works off of. I have read on the internet how to research and be a private investigator. Her book shows how a fifty-year -old woman can be an amateur private eye. Niki Danforth takes us step by step through the investigation and builds a narrative: who Juliana Wentworth is and was, her connection to Bobby Taylor and Frankie (Francesca); and her connection to her family. Despite her misgivings, she still continued on and eventually she helped save Juliana's daughter.
The story was easy to follow and her deductions based on the investigation made sense. Ronnie had help from Will Benson, a private investigator, who takes Aikido class with her. Considering she could have been seriously hurt multiple times, she is lucky. She had Warrior, her son's dog that served with him in the war, to keep her safe.
Near the end of the story when Juliana's life story comes together, you realize she was a very strong female character who was made. The sad part was her cousins were still not doing the right thing. The two of them did not learn.
I highly recommend this book for you to read.
Disclosure: I purchased this job k to review and post that review on Amazon and on another website, Nikki's Book Reviews. I will be receiving payment for this book review.

There is nothing better than a good mystery with a brilliant detective to keep the reader invested. The author did just that, crafting a protagonist that not only felt like the driving force of the narrative but found just the right balance between flawed and heroic. The character development in this book was just top-notch, bringing the reader into the protagonist’s POV and showcasing a character that proves that you don’t have to let age stop you from doing something you enjoy or are good at. The heart and family loyalty that drives Ronnie is something many people can relate to, while the earnest way the author is able to show the amateur aspect of Ronnie’s detective skills, helps to bring both the humor and the charm of her character’s arc.

The witty yet charming and engaging dialogue keeps the reader invested in the characters and the mystery greatly. The way the character is written in a way that people can see themselves through her eyes, and yet allows the humor and charm of her personality to be juxtapositioned with the real dangers she faces as she gets further and further into this life of mystery and intrigue, made this a fascinating character arc. The tension and gripping atmosphere that built up as the mystery widened further and further, as well as the imagery that the author built into their writing to allow the scenes to feel visceral and alive on the page, will have the reader diving further and further into this world the author has developed, eager to see Ronnie’s arc grow more and more as time goes on.

Filled with twists and turns galore, this was a fun and enticing mystery read that I couldn’t put down. The drama and heart that went into this narrative were reflected perfectly in the cast of characters and the interactions they shared with Ronnie as her journey grew more and more fraught with danger and intrigue.
