This was an interesting book! We follow Detective Harry Hunt, who is dealing with a wife who suffered a devastating illness after a drug overdoes. Harry is angry and goes after drug dealers. However, his methods are not on the up and up, leading to him having lots of problems at work. His current case has him assigned to a student who is not the most likable character. It was a really good mystery, fast paced and well written with intriguing characters and good plot twists. Well worth the read!
All the Good Girls is a faced paced who sone it that keeps you guessing m. It’s a fast read with a twisted story that he ne on my toes. Good read!

Wow. That was a breath of fresh air. This was a slow-burn and you really have to be patient to see the big picture. When you get into the story, there is no going back.
Cheers to Netgalley for the copy!
I just finished this, I do believe it is better than other Willow Rose novels that I have read. However, I do feel that the main character was a bit too unrealistic for me. I think it was a decent read and would read it again between others.
This was the second book by this author that I reviewed. I like that these books are set in Florida. There are not many mysteries that take place in Florida. However, that is all I like about this book. I disliked how the main character, Harry, a detective, has the seemingly magic ability to look at a photo of a crime scene and know exactly what happened without the need for forensics. It is just so unrealistic.
I also dislike the dialogue. It doesn't flow well because the author doesn't use enough contractions. Because of this, it sounds stilted,
As for the plot itself, it was just too ridiculous to be enjoyable.
This talented author has written a novel that is intriguing…mystery and murder…family and friends…secrets…lies…red herrings…the characters are lifelike… the story moves quickly…this book was sent to me by Netgalley electronically for review.
Thank you NetGalley for the digital copy. This was a short crime thriller that got right to the point. The crimes were poorly described and felt cheesy, like an old CSI episode. The story line was interesting with decent twists. Religious aspect throughout the book that seemed misplaced. 3 stars for a decent story line and closure at the end!
All The Good Girls by Willow Rose is the first book in the Harry Hunter Mystery Series. This is a fast-paced murder mystery with a likable main character, even though he has lots of flaws. Harry is a detective who doesn’t always follow the rules. Five teens from the same school were witnesses to a crime. All 5 have turned up dead. Harry is given the duty of protecting the life of a possible future victim. This enthralling, page-turner is a story that’s hard to put down. Lots of action, suspense with lots of twists and turns. Looking forward to the next book in the series.

So needless to say he is unhappy when he is sent to babysit the rapist, Instead of investigating the murder. Harry doesn’t let Bing toll no stop him though and investigate he does. Between caring for his invalid wife and teenage daughter investigating and babysitting he has a pretty full life but when romance rear the tad Harry isn’t exactly saying no. I loved this book I love that Harry is a Christian I love that he loves his daughter I love the plot it’s just an awesome book. Willow Rose comes up with the best stories and I guess that’s why she’s a best seller! I received this book from NetGalley and the publisher but I am leaving this review voluntarily please forgive any mistakes as I am blind to dictate my review but all opinions are definitely my own.

This novel is the first book in Willow's Harry Hunter series. Detective Harry Hunter of Miami PD’s homicide squad throws himself into a case no one asked him to solve. Four teenagers from one of Miami's neighbourhoods are murdered on a boat and another is found in a dumpster. All five of them go to the same school and are on a list of witnesses to another crime. Since Harry is in bad standing with his boss, Harry is given the task of protecting a possible future victim, but Harry is not always known to follow his boss's orders. He risks everything while racing to stop a killer who has left everyone else in the homicide squad shaking in terror.
After reading the summary I was so excited to read this book, but it had no potential and I am honestly disappointed. I just think the plot was just a bit basic for me and it was a fast paced crime mystery (only a little over a hundred pages). None of the victims appear that likeable and I just felt I knew more about Harry's personal struggles than the investigation he was not working but decides to work on. I honestly would not recommend this book, but if you are interested in reading this book, it is only about one hundred pages, so it will be a quick read.
"His prayers had finally been answered."
All the Good Girls by Willow Rose follows Harry Hunter as he tries to poke his nose in a case he was not assigned. He is constantly breaking rules. Yet, he is still in the department and tasked with the job of looking after a boy who has been accused of rape. He soon realizes the terrible truth behind William and wants to take him down. This started off good, but didn't live up for me. The point of views kept shifting without the reader being explicitly told. It kept going back from third person to first person to third person. Even that was still acceptable. However, the problem is with the mystery itself. All the twists are told through dialogues instead of being shown. The writing is mediocre. The premise was good, but it wasn't fleshed out. If it had been, this would have been much better.
Thanks to NetGalley and Buoy Media for providing me with an ARC of 'All the Good Girls' in exchange of an honest review.
The first in Willow Rose's Harry Hunt series, set in Miami. A busy guy with a complex personal life and a job as a homicide detective. Seems like there's always challenges, particularly since he's a bit rogue. Fast read.
Was not happy with this book, at all. was bored since this book fell flat, I wanted to like it but couldn't it just seemed like this detective didn't listen and wanted to do what what they wanted.
A pretty good story, interesting characters, Harry, the detective, I would like to meet again, his daughter Josie, his dad, all nice people, realistic. The crime is horrible, four young teenage girls on a boat, in this beach story it's not Jaws you have to worry about! I tried to give it 3.5 stars.
I recommend! Thank you #Netgalley #AllTheGoodGirls
I had not read and books by Willow Rose. One of my friends suggested her As they thought that I enjoy her writing. They were so right! All the Good Girls by Willow Rose is a fast paced police procedural murder mystery. As a first book of the Harry Hunter series, I really enjoyed it. The character Harry seems to be a likeable troublemaking detective who doesn't follow the rules often. In this book Harry sets out to solve the murder of 4 teenage girls that he was specifically told it wasn't his case. The cast of characters we are introduced to along the way are intriguing as well.
Since I found I could download several of Willow Rose's books on NetGalley, I've been on a WR reading marathon. There are even some that I'm reading for the second time and still loving! She has several different series, and this is the first installment of a new one (Harry Hunter). I am very eager to read the ones that follow.. Harry is a most interesting detective and a good man, as well. He investigates a series of murders that he wasn't assigned to and gets in a little hot water from his boss but is forgiven when he solves the case!
Wish I could give extra stars for the absence of sex and bad language.

I received this e-book from NetGalley.
All The Good Girls is the first book in the "Harry Hunter Mystery Series".
The story revolves around the case of four girls brutally murdered on a boat (well...not everyone was murdered on the boat) and the murder of another girl who was found in a bin. All these girls are witnesses of a crime which we find out early in the book.
The main character is the detective Harry Hunter, who throughout the book will have to discover what happened to these girls, why they were murdered and most importantly who is the killer.
The story had good potential, however, it fell short. I didn't feel any suspense, none. The moment I found out who the killer was I didn't feel speechless, it didn't take me by surprise and by the ending I was just...done.
