So sorry for the delay! I'll go with Option A and choose Spindle Cove and Return to Redemption. Happy reading!

[Jennifer]

Finished one of my first series and will finish the second later tonight:

[Jennifer]

Today I listened to two books from my second series:
3.5 stars each. Sometimes she's emotionally on target and sometimes she gets a little schmaltzy.

[Jennifer]

Reading the third (and last) book of my second series today. Another series knocked out!

[Logan]

I finished . I’m glad I waited to come back to this series because it felt a little new again. The character list is getting a little out of hand but overall a super enjoyable entry and I already borrowed the next book.

[Jonquil]

This was an enjoyable read, I'm not sure why I waited so long between books in this series.
Parts of the storyline seemed improbable, even for a cozy, so I found myself talking back to my Kindle.
So that made me less receptive to . They proved to be worth the time, however, because the covers were useful for other challenges. I am glad I got closer to finishing the series.

[Karen ♐]

Logan, I finished both my books... and . Loved them both.

[Connie N.]

Wow, Suzanne, thanks so much for picking Rizzoli & Isles for me. I just finished the first book in the series and loved it! I've read a novella from the Kate Daniels series so far and am listening to #8 in the series, so I hope to have that done before the end of the month too. Great picks!
