EVERY SMALL TOWN HAS A SECRET The rolling fields outside Curry, Oklahoma, are a beautiful spot to ramble on an early spring day . . . and a lonely place to die. Among the prairie grass and wildflowers, a killer kneels beside a curled-up figure, plunging a syringe beneath skin to deliver the fatal dose. And as the victim’s last breath mingles with the air, it sends a warning out to the world: This is just the beginning. AND THIS ONE Rejecting her judge father’s prestigious connections, Ellie Guthrie opened her own law firm in Curry. But something strange is going on. Ellie’s tires are slashed. Dead rats are dumped on her patio. Her neighbor, former FBI agent Nate Marcel, insists on watching out for her. And then bodies begin turning up—supposed overdoses that Nate suspects are something much more sinister. IS WORTH KILLING FOR There’s a killer in town, toying with her, drawing both Ellie and Nate into a web of murder and vengeance. To find answers, she’ll have to unearth this small community’s dark and twisted past . . . before it’s her turn to die. Praise for Pretend You’re Safe “Alexandra Ivy gives readers a nice balance of romance and suspense in her fast-paced, well-plotted novel.” —Kat Martin, New York Times bestselling author “A satisfying mystery . . . Ivy's clever foreshadowing keeps the tension high throughout this fast-moving tale, and the romance sizzles.” —Publishers Weekly “A pulse-raising romantic thriller.” —BookPage

The best one yet! Worth it for the last chapter alone. I'm SO glad she's decided to continue beyond the original trilogy- she evokes the period so well and the Mary/James pairing is pretty much my new drug. Yup. Hurry up forth book!

Pleasant to read but that's it. The intrigue is too “easy” and the romance boring.

Probably my least favorite Marni Mann book so far, but that doesn't mean that it was bad at all! I just didn't like how Max was a complete butt hole the ENTIRE first part of the book. For like no reason. The ending seemed a little rushed for my taste, but overall it wasn't bad.
