The Fog
Amanda McKinney
(A Berry Springs Novel)
Publication date: December 4th 2018
Genres: Adult, Mystery, Romance
Former Marine turned ballistics expert, Wesley Cross is known around town for two things, his rugged good-looks and cocky attitude—until he finds his ex-girlfriend lying in a puddle of blood in his basement. The scene screams setup, but the discovery of a rare gem and a puzzling autopsy suggests the murder goes much deeper than that. Wesley will do whatever it takes to clear his name, including calling in a notoriously headstrong—and sexy—scientist.
While most little girls were playing dress up, Gwyneth Reece was digging in the dirt collecting bugs. Now one of the top forensic entomologists in the country, Gwen reluctantly accepts a job from a pushy cowboy and travels to the small, Southern town of Berry Springs. Heavy storms are brewing, and when she’s forced to check into the creepiest hotel she’s ever seen, she instantly regrets her decision to help out the former Marine.
Following up on a tip, Wesley heads to the Half Moon Hotel but quickly realizes his visit was not by chance. The killer lured him there, and suddenly everyone from the uptight bellman to the wealthy couple just passing through town become suspect. Bodies begin to disappear, and Wesley knows the killer will do anything to get to him…. including hurting the woman who’s kept his head spinning since he first laid eyes on her.
My Thoughts: I'd just like to thank Amanda McKinney and Xpresso Book Tours for letting me be a part of this awesome tour and providing me with a free copy of The Fog for honest review.
I really enjoyed The Fog. I'd been reading a lot of fantasy and science fiction, so it was nice taking a step back from that and reading some good ol' romantic suspense, and it was romantic suspense at its finest. I'm a sucker for these types of stories.
So, The Fog is actually the fourth book in the Berry Springs Series, but it can be read as a standalone.
Our two main leads are Wesley Cross and Gwyneth Reece and when they meet, sparks fly! Wesley needs Gwyn's help to prove he didn't murder his ex-girlfriend. Gwyn checks into a creepy hotel where everyone is suspcious.
The Fog was a quick, fun, romantic read and I'd definitely recommend it for those that love Romantic Suspense novels. Gwyneth is a very smart girl and she keeps Wesley on his toes. I liked the romance, I liked the mystery, and I liked the thrills and chills. I want to read more in this series.
