by J.W. Becton

Take a chance and whatever happens, Don't Look Back.Tripp Carver takes his job as a violent crimes detective seriously. In the name of truth and justice, he'll do whatever it takes to make things right...no matter what it costs him. Despite the dark and violent crimes he investigates, Tripp always tries to stay on the sunny side of life. He aims to enjoy each day and appreciate the people around him. That's why everyone in the department loves him.Everyone except Detective Aubrey Stewart.And of course, Aubrey's most recent domestic violence case forces her to team up with the too-handsome, too-charming, too-frustrating Detective Carver. As an investigator on the Domestic Violence Unit, Aubrey's seen her fair share of manipulative charmers. And she's not going to be taken in by Tripp's swagger and flirtation. She'll focus on work, no matter the distraction before her.She hopes.Together, Tripp and Aubrey must search for a missing young woman and track down a possibly violent, definitely armed man who has disappeared somewhere on the streets of Mercer, Georgia.Will Aubrey and Tripp be able to work together to make things right for the victims of violence and abuse? Or will they allow the past to hold them back?A crime-dramedy series, Mercer Murders walks the line between humor and drama, neither too slapstick nor too dark.The Mercer Murders series takes place in the same universe as the Southern Fraud Mystery series, but you do not have to read the original series in order to enjoy Mercer Murders. Each book in the series can be read as a standalone mystery.

Don’t Look Back

This is the beginning of another good series. I like the Southern Fraud Series and I will enjoy this as well. It’s fun, easy to read and has twists and turns that were unexpected.
