Yowser! Great Review

I just ran across a wonderful 5-star review for my funny mystery, MURDER IN THE BUFF. Thank you, Marilou George, for reading and liking this book!

As seen at amazon:

"Molly Darter is a reporter for her small town newspaper in Marshview, Georgia and her latest assignment is to pick up an obituary from a nudist camp. She is dreading going there in person as she feels totally uncomfortable with the idea of being up close and personal with a nude stranger. On top of all that her personal life is a mess. She is separated from her husband after she caught her sister and him kissing and she feels as if her world is spinning out of control. Dealing with the nudists is presenting quite a challenge for Molly and when they suggest that their friend, Barbara Jean, was a possible murder victim her life and the lives of her dysfunctional family will be forever altered.

This is a suspense story with enough twists and turns to keep you anxiously awaiting the next. The flow of the story is fast paced and engaging. The writing style is refreshing and the banter between the characters is realistic and appealing.

Molly is a great character who you will feel compassion for. She is headstrong and determined and through all the stresses she faces she learns about herself and what is really important. The supporting cast of characters successfully contributes to the drama and underlying tension of the story as well as adding humor to some tense situations.

This is a suspense story mixed with romance and the dynamics of a family. It is a story that will keep you guessing and totally entertained. This is the first book that I have read by Maggie Toussaint and definitely not the last. "

This Makes a Writer's Day



Hello, Maryann Miller here. Thanks to Morgan for the invitation for us to come and share news about our books and writing.
It is always such a thrill for an author to get a review of his or her book. That is why I try to always review the books I read, especially the ones I fall in love with. 

Back in the spring, I sent a copy of my suspense novel, One Small Victory,  to Dan Wright, an author, reviewer and blogger, hoping for a review, and when I did not hear back right away, I thought perhaps he hated the book and just declined. 

Yes, we all have our doubts. (smile)

To my surprise, he contacted me not long ago to say he had finally read the book and loved it. Here is a snippet from the review,  "It’s brilliantly written and never once ceases with the drama, making you want to carry on reading to find out whether it has a happy ending or not." 

Wow! Thank you, Dan. If you would like to read the whole review, click on Dan's name above. And, of course, I'd love it if you tried the book for yourself. It's only $2.99 for Kindle, NOOK, and KOBO
