this book sucks you in from the start with an unexpected opening, this book follows henry our local detective he is the best in the field has the most solved cases. One day four girls are found brutally murdered on the port and Lucy is the main suspect for these unexplained murders. Lucy who has disappeared a year ago and no one has seen her sine she lost her case against her rapist. Henry does everything in his power to figure out what happened here but he isn't on the case he is sent to protect and guard the most spoiled messed up kid in town who also happened to be lucy's rapist.

this book was unexpectedly good, the writing is so simple that it pulls you in and makes you feel a part of the story. i honestly really liked it. the plot twist was so good and i really didn't see it coming i hated william so much that i was 100% sure that it was him. Henry is really smart and i could see how he is a detective.

“All The Good Girls” by Willow Rose is about a case that detective Harry Hunter, or as he is called in the book,”Handsome Harry”, gets about five supposedly “good girls” who get murdered. However inspite of Harry being a brilliant detective with photographic memory he is not given the case to solve because due to family problems he has been blowing off work. Instead he is given the task of protecting the a potential next victim. Nevertheless as more secrets are revealed he cant stop himself, gets involved and starts to find the killer.


The book starts off good, the initial few chapters reeling you in. But the middle and end seems to fall flat.
There are a few plot twists but for the most part the killer is someone who both the audience as well as the detective had guessed from the beginning. The lack of suspense in this book is a problem.
Harry himself solved the mystery rather quickly and without much trouble.

The love story/triangle with Harry, Jean and Camille was something I wasn't into and honestly I found myself rushing through those parts. Although I am interested in how Camille fell sick.

Another small thing that I would suggest for the author would be to specify whose POV the chapter is from on top of the chapter as it can get a bit confusing.

All the same this book makes for a fun quick read. The basic plot line is quite interesting. Harry as a character is wonderful. You will love his emotional backstory, his sad family situation and his views on various subject.

I received a digital copy from net galley to review.

after 4 girls are brutally murdered on a boat Detective Harry Hunter is determined to get to the bottom of this and find out who is behind the terrible crime. Although Harry isn’t officially on the case it’s close to home for him and he decided she is going to solve the case instead of keeping watch over a potential victim.

When another girl is attacked in the school toilets Harry is dismissed having been tasked with guarding the school to ensure that nothing like this should have happened. At the point I felt for Harry as he has a wife at home in a coma resulting from a drug over dose and a daughter at home who needs her dad more than ever now that she is missing her mother.

Even though he’s been dismissed Harry soon quickly solves the case and is reinstated to his old position. I loved this book as a thriller it was a quick and easy read but there was plenty to keep the reader interested. I’m really looking forward to reading the other Harry Hunter mystery thrillers.

Thank you to NetGalley the author and the publisher for an advanced readers copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

3.5 / 5 stars!

After Lucy reported she was raped at a prom after party and the accused gets away with it, she goes missing. Soon after, 5 students are brutally murdered, and these 5 girls just so happen to be on the list of the witnesses of the rape. Detective Harry Hunter is assigned to protect the accused boy but while doing so, he is set on solving the crime himself. So, he sets out on his own investigation and discovers more than he bargained for.

This was a fast-paced, page turning read. There are multiple twists and turns that I wasn't expecting, and it left my dying to know what really happened that night and who was involved. I loved the way it was written, and the main character's (Harry) narration allowed you to follow along with the investigation and helps better understand how all the clues are connected. I loved that it was in a detective's POV because it taught how to observe even the smallest details to solve the crime.

With that being said, I really struggled to like any of these characters. I didn’t find any of them likeable, and I was unable to show any of them sympathy- including Detective Hunter. But all the characters seemed suspicious and made you wonder if they knew the truth. I wish it would have been longer with more substance. It just all happened to fast.

Overall, I really enjoyed this short book. It only took a couple hours to finish and the story itself was captivating. It's perfect for someone who is looking for a fast crime/investigation!

I"m really not sure what I think of this book. I liked the story concept, was iffy about liking Harry, and am still a little iffy about the writing style. The murders were good, the suspense of that carried through nicely. The ending was a shocker and does make me want to grab up book two to see what happens.

Willow Rose is a very prolific author whose books cover just about every category. This is the first in a new series, featuring a stressed Miami PD detective, a man who solves the crimes, even if he has to step outside the lines. Ms Rose's books are always a good read. Her characters are human, you'll recognize them from any circle of friends. The stories move quickly and never leave you wondering how the story ended. I'd recommend her books to anyone looking for a good, quick read or a new series. I've read many of her books and I'll keep reading them as long as she keeps writing them.

A teenage girl is found murdered, her body in a dumpster. Four more teenage girls are found murdered while on a boat. What ties all these deaths together? All of them attended the same high school were witnesses to another crime.

Detective Harry Hunter is on his boss' last nerve. Harry does things his way ... and they usually get good results. These days, he's dealing with a wife who has been in a coma for several years, a teenage daughter, and his irascible father. He's never where he's supposed to be and today is no different.

He's assigned to protect another student who may be a possible future victim. As usual, things pop up, the student is left to his own devices and someone else dies.

This killer is known by a lot of people ... his father is wealthy, a mover and a shaker...and everyone is afraid of what he can and will do ... even most of the homicide department.

Harry is on his own ....

The plot is what attracted me in the first place, but the story line fell somewhat flat. The book seems to center on his personal life, although he is an excellent detective .. when he shows up for work. There's lots of action, but most of it is just unbelievable. The ending was quite spectacular with the taking of someone close to Harry ... the conclusion was left as a cliff-hanger.

Many thanks to the author / Buoy Media LLC / Netgalley for the digital copy of this crime fiction. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

3/5 star review

This was my first Willow Rose book, and I'm sad to say that I struggled to enjoy it.

This story follows Harry Hunter, a detective who tries to solve a murder mystery that no one asked him to solve. Four teens were murdered on a luxury boat, another found in a dumpster, and all of them tied to an allegation from the past. Harry rushes to solve the murder before more harm comes and dives into an investigation that has others shaking in their boots.

The story has so much promise and was interesting, but I just couldn't enjoy the writing style. I found that a lot of the text was I did this... then I did this... It kind of felt a bit repetitive in that sense. However, although I struggled with the writing style, the story was still interesting and the characters likeable. I feel as though my problems with the style of writing are personal, and if murder mysteries are your thing, I think you should give this book a go!

A great first story of Harry, a detective in Florida. Young girls being murdered, and he is assigned to protect a slimy rich teenager. Hard to do his job when he wants to punch the kid himself. Looking forward to the next in the series. Highly recommend this book and author.

This felt like a murder mystery taking place on the set of Gossip Girl. Chuck is accused of rape, gets away with it, and secrets abound.

Now if you haven't seen Gossip Girl - this is a mystery/police procedural. The people that are killed are rich kids, and so are the suspects. Rich kids, murder, blackmail, cat and mouse.- just a fun read.

I thought it was a quick, fun, read. However, I though that the main character investigating things was annoying. He disobeyed orders time and time again,. He always thought he knew better than everyone else. He just annoyed me.

I liked how we not only got the story about the investigation, but we also got background on the police detective. His home life was really interesting and I wanted more.

I wasn't sure if I was going to read another one in this series, but the ending! Damnit Willow Rose - you hooked me, I have already downloaded the next one.

Great book! But really short! This book had suspense, action, intrigue, and all kinds of crazy stuff going on! It was a great thriller! I really don't like short books at all but this one was really good! I felt like I got the whole story too! Its definitely worth reading! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!
