I loved this cute little novella, Shelley packed tons of stuff in this little story. Love, mystery and suspense and a new baby too!! What more could areader ask for. A great story, with a cut message! 128 pages US $3.99 4 stars.
A great review. I've loved all of Shelley Shepard Gray's books but haven't read this one. I think Katie has been in another one or two of her books, I may be wrong. If I'm remembering correctly she's an edearing little girl. Blessings & Merry Christmas, Susan Fryman
