I got this back in December when it was on the Kindle freebie list, and finally got around to reading it.For a free book, it wasn't too bad. The plot kept me reading, and the eventual villain was a surprise (this is two books in a row I've been surprised, it's possible I just haven't been reading enough cozies lately).However, I came close to tossing the book several times when the heroine drove me kind of crazy. She meant well I guess, but she had a terminal case of Jessica Fletcher-itis - and never got results. Her "I'm going to sneak out and make everyone worried about me" tantrums really frustrated me, and detracted from my enjoyment of the book.Also how fast she and the Hero got together irritated me, but that's a staple of the genre, so it's to be expected.Overall, a solid three star book, especially for something that was free.
