"Murder mystery with a side of romance? Yes please! Blue Ridge Murder is an amazing novel with intrigue and heat." - Goodreads Reviewer

A steadfast believer in "never again," the only relationship parole officer Alayna Baron wants is with her job. When her roommate surprises her with a long weekend in the mountains, she reluctantly agrees—completely unaware it’s a singles matchmaking event.

Widowed at a young age, Detective Evan Marshall thought he'd had his one chance at love. When his brothers send him away for the weekend, the thought of romance never crosses his mind. At least, not until he finds the intriguing Alayna stranded on the side of the road.

When an intense snowstorm closes the roads and bodies start piling up at the inn where they are staying, Evan and Alayna join forces in an attempt to keep the other guests safe. But even with a murderer hidden amongst them, Evan and Alayna find a spark neither are looking for. If only they can stay alive long enough to explore it.

A complete stand-alone romantic mystery.

Well-written and the suspense builds as the body count rises

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 16, 2021

Imagine being pushed to take a free weekend getaway and not only getting stuck in a snowstorm, but discovering when you check in, it's a singles meet-and-greet. Only the snow keeps coming, the roads are closed and you're stuck there with an innkeeper who believes in love and has already decided that Evan and Alayna belong together. Throw in some ice breaker games and activities...

Both Alayna and Evan are taken by surprise and their only goal is to get off the snowy mountain as soon as possible. The snow storm and Alayna's car trouble have other ideas. When first one person associated with the inn is found dead, tensions rise. Authorities can't get to the inn and no one can leave. The detective and the parole officer shift from unhappy guests to securing crime scenes as much as possible and protecting the corpses.

This is well-written and the suspense builds as the body count rises. One 'accident' the other guests can ignore and return to their matchmaking... soon guests start looking at each other with suspicion. There are some humorous spots and the building attraction between Alayna and Evan as well. It's not clear until the end who the killer is or the motive. If you like romantic mystery, you'll enjoy this one. It is the second in the Marshall brothers series and my first by Carolyn Laroche. The only reference to Evan's brothers is that they paid for the trip. It truly is a stand-alone romantic mystery.

No fun vacation!

A love story between two police officers who have experienced personal trauma and withdrawn from people .... until a singles vacation at The Blue Ridge Lodge. An expected killer creates a tragic weekend and, even though it was pretty obvious who the villain would be, it was fun getting to the finish!

I think I’ve found a new favorite author! Love the law enforcement aspects of her books, humanizing a profession under attack. The suspense kept me on the edge of my seat, and the book was over all too soon.

It's a truly great read. I didn't want to put the reader down. It is one of the best romantic suspense I have read

I really wanted to like this book. It had so much potential. About 43% in I felt myself bored with it. The plot had potential like I said but it fell short for me

I look forward to the next book in this series.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 27, 2020

This second book in the series is another fabulous cozy mystery with a second chance at love romance. The lead characters, Alayna and Evan are both in law enforcement, just in different areas. It’s a good thing too given the chaos they end up in at Blue Ridge Lodge.

I really liked the lead characters and could easily relate to them. Both are very caring and hardworking, perhaps to the point of overworked in Alayna’s case. Both have suffered loss and trauma in their pasts and been severely affected by it. I loved the passion Alayna had for her job which definitely would be a hard one at the best of times. Evan had a great sense of humor, actually, they both did at times.

Nearly as soon as the weekend started for Alayna things went wrong and then, oh boy, things sure became chaotic and drama-filled to the max. In saying that, it did but it wasn’t over-the-top drama queen style. Things evolved like dominoes falling one after the other. Each one is more shocking than the other where you are fearful of what is going to happen next. I had a sneaky suspicion about the killer but decided I was wrong so did get a surprise in the end. There were a few twists actually, I love a good twist in the story.

I enjoyed this romantic suspense/cozy mystery story, it was very entertaining and at a time when I needed to escape some worries of my own, it fits the bill perfectly. I look forward to the next book in this series.

Jennifer Pierson: The Power of Three Readers

#SUPEREXCITINGSUSPENSE

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 26, 2020

Parole officer, Alayna Baron, is determined to never have another relationship except with her job so her roommate steps in to talk her into going on a long weekend in the mountains but doesn't tell her it's a singles event. Detective Evan Marshall lost his wife too soon, and he truly believes he'll never find love again, so his brothers send him to the same place that Alayna is heading to. It sure does feel like fate doesn't it?! Well they have sparks but there's no time for romance when bodies start piling up at the inn they're staying at, and everyone wants them to solve it because a snow storm has shut things down including the roads so it's up to Alayna & Evan to keep everyone safe. Obviously that means the twists are coming in hot, and while I thought I knew what I believed to be true, I knew nothing which is the brilliance of Carolyn LaRoche's mysteries, and I've become very addicted to her stories. I'm not going to say anymore because I promise, it's so much better just to experience all of this goodness for yourselves! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL!
