I loved this fast paced cozy mystery set in the south. Cherry is a fun and sassy character. This story was fast paced and I loved the characters.

I happened to read Book 6 of the series because I opted for this on NetGalley and didn't realize it. For some reason, I thought this was Book 1 in the series.

Anyhow, this was actually a nice mystery. What complicated this was Cherry's personal life. That completely overshadowed the mystery plot. And towards the end, things started happening so fast and there wasn't enough explanation for anything, including the final murderer, there just wasn't enough time. It felt rushed and it just messed up the whole book for me, I'm sorry.

Cherry seems to be such a nice character, but it was a mistake to read Book 6 without reading the first 5 books. In some books, the author does a great job of making sure the reader doesn't find out the difference, but here, I felt a huge amount of information that I didn't have because I hadn't read the earlier books in the series.

First you need too read this series from book one, because if you don't you 'll miss something. This is a very interesting hilarious series with well develop characters and story-lines and whodunit that keeps you guessing. Cherry is a feisty, life gives me lemons I'll make lemonade and sweet tea kinda of southern gal, who you will fall in love with.

The sixth book in the Cherry Tucker Mystery series is packed with quirky elderly characters and humor, with a murder mystery to top it all off. The author has done a fine job of just the right combination of each to keep the story moving with the discovery of the "who do it" pitch perfect to end a funny, engaging story. I look forward to more stories involving Cherry Tucker, each one has been entertaining to say the least.

This was the first book I read in the Cherry Tucker Mystery series, and even though there was a lot going on that started in the previous books, I didn’t feel lost at all—the author does a great job of telling the current story and new mystery for Cherry to solve while slowly letting you know what happened before.

My favorite thing about the story was Cherry herself because, man, it’s like there’s nothing she cannot do, she’s smart, she’s bold, she’s feisty, she’s unstoppable, plus her heart is always in the right place. In this particular case she will stop at nothing to solve the murder of an elderly and very rich lady she met once and asked her for help. There’s a large fortune to be inherited and quite a few questionable, seriously shady, even dangerous family members at play, still Cherry will not be intimidated.

Other thing that I enjoyed was the romance, which is also the reason I immediately added all the Cherry Tucker books to my to-buy-soon list. I need to know all the details of this relationship with the very handsome and solemn Deputy Luke Harper, who keeps begging her to stop putting herself in danger, please.

Recommended for cozy mystery fans and alikes.

Super fun read that had me guessing until the end. Just when you have an idea who the criminal is, another twist is added into the mix. Once I started reading the book, I didn’t want to stop because I had to know who was guilty! A light suspense plot with some romance swirled in made this a delightful weekend read.
