What a surprise!

I'm pretty sure in the description this was supposed to be a novella but it absolutely doesn't read like one. It has just the right mix of everything. I never felt overwhelmed by the number of characters nor did I feel like I needed more depth. Completely worth checking out. I will admit that I read this out of curiosity as Amazon touted this as one of their "Kindle in Motion" books. I think at times it was distracting, but I finally learned to ignore that aspect of the book. I did enjoy it on the cover because it has snow falling. ( )

Tracks of Her Tears by Melinda Leigh is the first Romantic Suspense novella in the Rogue Winter series. I read the second one first and I can see how the two link together. All the characters were introduced in the Rogue River series, but I have not read any of them. I did not have any problem following the story and the characters were actually developed well considering this was a novella. This is a collaboration between Melinda Leigh and Kendra Elliot. The second novella in the series is authored by Kendra Elliott.

The story revolves around the murder of a woman who is the girlfriend of Bruce. Bruce is the brother of social worker Carly Taylor who is married to the county investigator, Seth Harding. Carly's family is extremely close knit and with this story taking place at Christmas time, they become involved in the situation. This novella had everything I look for in a story even though it was quite short. The characters are well developed, the plot is fast paced and the mystery keeps you guessing to the end. I enjoyed this book and now need to check out the Rogue River Series. ( )

Nothing much of substance, there is a murder there is an investigation. This is the first time I have run across a “kindle in motion” book and to tell you the truth was not impressed, I quickly turned the media off. ( )

This was a fun read!

I like the Kindle in motion. I noticed the pictures helped me become more connected to the story and the characters. ( )

Kindle in motion

This was my first time reading a kindle in motion book. I like the videos and graphics. The storyline was solid and suspenseful. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. ( )
