Queen B’s Decree: I am always down for more stories that contain Cletus and Jenn, my OTP. M&M begins months after the end of E&E and we’re coming closer and closer to Cletus and Jenn’s wedding. It’s at their engagement party that the mystery continues when a MURDER occurs.
My only issue with E&E previously was that the mystery felt unsettled. I’ve now realized that I have to consider each book to be a part of the mystery. Each book so far has answered some of my questions, but more issues pop up and the “mystery” is not totally solved. And I am totally here for it.
Cletus and Jenn’s story was a primary focus, and I loved seeing their relationship grow. Truly, seeing the romantic and sappy side of Cletus is one of the sweetest things to read. And Jenn is coming to accept herself more and grow into herself. They complement and match the other so well.
M&M was full of unexpected twists and more suspense than I had anticipated. It was a great mix of romance and cozy mystery and I love that the world of the Winston’s is here to stay.
