Why read it?
1 author picked The Art of Murder as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I’m usually one for a light and easy romance, but The Art of Murder really had me second-guessing my preferences!
Fast-paced, heart-stopping, and fabulous, Claire Ripley gives you everything you want in a romantic suspense novel. The author knows how to artfully weave together external conflict with a roller coaster of emotions. The characters are well-written, and the plot really kept me turning pages.
This is a quick, fun read that’ll leave you guessing and cheering for a (spoiler alert!) happily-ever-after.
From Julie's list on romance that will both shatter and stitch your heart.
