Books on My Radar:
Date the Alphabet, by Laura Langa: "Going on twenty-six first dates—one for each letter of the alphabet—is a ludicrous proposition. But if Ann takes her sister’s bet, she’ll win four thousand dollars for underfunded classrooms. Audiobook narrator Zane West has been struggling to hide his crush on his daughter’s third grade teacher for months. So when Ann asks him to be her fake date to her sister’s wedding, it gives Zane a chance to explore the undeniable chemistry between them. Unfortunately, dating the parent of one of your students is definitely off-limits." Rated 4.5 stars.
Sting of Lies, by Carol Potenza: "Ice Age paleontologist and poisons expert Myrna P. Lee is dispatched to a remote billionaire's ranch in Northern New Mexico, tasked with solving a mysterious environmental poisoning. There's a secret mammoth kill site on the ranch she desperately hopes will supply data for her megafauna poisons grant. Then a handsome cowboy sets her heart pounding, a motley bunch of ranch hands embrace her as part of their found family, and she stumbles onto a decades old unsolved murder...." The book has an unusual dog!
Puzzle at Peacock Perch (Secret Senior Sleuth Society Cozy Mysteries), by Suzanne Rudd Hamilton: "Willow Wisteria disappeared. Now it’s up to the Secret Senior Sleuths Society of Peacock Perch to find out what happened to her. They’ve set aside their bingo and bridge games and daily tennis and pickle ball matches to investigate ‘The Case of the Vanishing Vixen.’ They’ll use all their cunning, life experience and the knowledge from their former occupations to gather clues and find suspects." Is "senior sleuths" becoming a trend?
A Blaze of Poppies, by Jennifer Bohnhoff: "In 1916, feisty little Agnes Day is determined to keep the family ranch, despite armed bandits streaming over the border from Mexico and prejudices against female ranchers. Her ally is Will Bowers, a strong and silent New Mexico Guardsman assigned to a nearby camp, but Will hides a dark background. Then both Agnes and Will are swept into World War I. Can Agnes secure a peaceful future after the insanity and bloodshed of war? Dare she hope to share that future with someone else?" I critiqued this one before publication and can recommend it!
