Book Description

December 1, 2003
When four women begin writing mystery books, they suddenly find themselves entering new lives of intrigue, danger - even love. Will their longing for adventure on paper take them to perilous places in real life? In this intriguing novella compilation, you'll meet four fascinating women: Tina suspects her tall, dark, and mysterious neighbor is a real-life villian. When a local murder bears the markings of an organized crime job - and the criminal evidence mounts against the hunk next door - will Tina's hunches prove true? Raine develops a fictional cast of suspicious characters based on people in her own life. But those same people become actual suspects when Raine determines they're planning to steal her inherited art collection. Will suspect number one make Raine laughingstock number one? As she writes about crime, Justine begins to face mysterious "accidents" and suspicious happenings. She finds herself being stalked. . .but is it by a rogue meaning her harm - or a friend trying to help? Fear fills Cassie's heart when her on-paper tragedies occur in real life - complete with details from her plots. But only one man knows what she's writing - could he be a murderer in disguise? While these women plot intrigue, could God be plotting a much larger story - one involving love?

5.0 out of 5 stars THE "SPIRITUALLY [my addition] SLEUTH SISTERS'" STORIES, December 27, 2003
By 
This review is from: Novel Crimes: Love's Pros and Cons/Suspect of My Heart/Love's Greatest Peril/'Til Death Do Us Part (Inspirational Romance Collection) (Paperback)
Wow!!! What a great Christian anthology of four novellas from GREAT authors who weave their own lives into four mystery novellas that are challenged to be written and published by a "Professor Drake" who has led their [imaginary] Convention about just such a topic. All four of these novellas - and excellent tie-ins "Prologue" + "Epilogue" will bring you to page turning this book in one and a half days. (Yep! I counted it just for you!) What a great idea for a gift for your favorite someone or for yourself. I really loved this one. And it already had my favorite author in it as one of its authors (Susan May Warren.) The others are newcomers to me up to this point but believe me I'll be back for more! Come and get it! You won't be sorry!

This review is from: Novel Crimes: Love's Pros and Cons/Suspect of My Heart/Love's Greatest Peril/'Til Death Do Us Part (Inspirational Romance Collection) (Paperback)
This novella collection is a fun romp through the world of novelists, filled with mystery and quirky characters. Woven together with Drake Axelrod?s The Makings of a Great Mystery, the novelists try to use his rules as they write mysteries of their own. In Love?s Pros and Cons, Tina Frank learns that first impressions can be deceiving, especially where Miguel Villarreal is concerned. Suspect of My Heart takes us into the world of fine art and people who would steal it. Raine E. Wells has to learn that all is not as it appears, especially where Lance is concerned. In Love?s Greatest Peril, Justine Proof has to learn that she can trust Patrick Bells.?Til Death Do Us Part finishes the collection with a story about Cassie Jordan and Ethan Hamil?s quest for love. This book is a very good read!

4.0 out of 5 stars Novel Crimes. . . where reality meets fiction!, March 10, 2004
By 
This review is from: Novel Crimes: Love's Pros and Cons/Suspect of My Heart/Love's Greatest Peril/'Til Death Do Us Part (Inspirational Romance Collection) (Paperback)
Embezzlement, fraud, stealing and murder give mystery writers something to write about-unfortunately, they'd rather it not take place in their personal lives!

Love's Pros and Cons

Miguel Villarreal would make a wonderful roll model for Tina Frank's hero in the novella she's writing with her Sleuth Sisters. After her handyman is murdered and a FBI agent shows up, Tina begins to have doubts as to whether Miguel is really a hero, or worse yet-a villian!

Suspect of My Heart

If you can't beat them, join them. Raine E. Wells takes a job at the art museum in order to find out what's been going on at the museum, hoping to find a story to write about, and if the museum is safe enough to entrust them with her newly inherited famous paintings.

Lance, one of the maintenance men, seems to know an awful lot about art for his position in the museum.

Will Raine catch a thief? Or be caught up in more than love?

Love's Greatest Peril

Justine Proof knows someone's after her, but isn't sure why. Could Patrick Bells, a.k.a. Wild Pat, still have a dark side? Why is it that whenever Justine has `car trouble' Patrick always seems to turn up? Is he her stalker or her knight come to rescue her with a raspberry latte? This coffee shop owner has more than coffee on his mind!

`Til Death Do Us Part

Ever have a dream that came true but turned out to be more of a nightmare? Maybe Cassie Jordan should stick to writing romances-no one gets murdered! When her mystery plot turns to reality, it has her questioning the one person she shared her story idea with-Ethan Hamil!

Read Novel Crimes to find out whether or not the heroines survive their real life mysteries and live to tell about it. I'm sure you'll enjoy these wonderful stories as much as I have.

Other books by these authors include (note: they're in anthologies with various other authors): THE BOUQUET and LOVE AFLOAT, by Diann Hunt; THE HOUSE THAT LOVE BUILT and HAPPILY EVER AFTER, by Susan May Warren; HIGHLAND LEGACY and TAILS OF LOVE, by Pamela Griffin; CHRISTMAS LETTERS and HEIRS OF ANTON, by Susan K. Downs.
