I liked the continuation of these characters, and the overarching mystery/case was interesting. I loved Lori Prince’s narration, especially the voice she used for Finn. There was a little too much “cops are the good guys” BS for me that got on my nerves, but I still enjoyed it and want to see where the characters go from here in the next book.

Alex Castle’s overbearing father has, months earlier, made her the CEO of his international empire of hotels and resorts with the caveat that she stop seeing the love of her life Tyler Falling. Alex can’t and won’t stop seeing Tyler, so her father tells her in a late-night meeting in his office that he has revoked her multi-million-dollar trust fund and called a meeting of the top executives to tell them he is removing her as CEO of the company. When she returns to work the next morning, there police everywhere and two detectives tell her that her father has been murdered. As they begin questioning Alex on her whereabouts the night before, she gets the distinct impression that they’ve already made up their minds that she killed her father. Those same detectives arrest her after her father’s funeral a few days later. Alex’s nightmare becomes her reality.
This is the second book in the Falling Castles series. Luckily, the reader need not have read the first book in this series to enjoy this one. The author gives her readers just enough information to understand the relationships between the well-drawn characters. Readers will be unable to put the book down because Miller is skilled in keeping the tension caused by Alex’s arrest and the reader’s lack of knowledge about who really killed her father.
Miller has two strong women, who obviously met in the first book, falling madly, instantly in love in this second book. The reader is given their backstory in detail, but fails to develop the secondary characters, except for the private investigator hired by Alex’s defense attorney and then she makes him into a super sensitive ex-cop while the other secondary characters remain amorphous,
There was one issue that will cause readers to pause. A key piece of evidence found at the crime scene by the police isn’t accounted for by the end of the book because the author inadvertently has it appear two weeks after the murder in the possession of a very minor character.
If you’re a mystery fan, you’ll enjoy this book and you may not guess whodunit until the characters find out.
