About this ebook

The New York Times–bestselling author delivers a contemporary romance “as raucous and riveting as fans will expect . . . a wild ride” (Publishers Weekly).

Captain Ava Capp has been flying from her past for a decade. She’d much rather leave it, and her home state, behind forever. But when she finds herself back in Minnesota, against her better judgment, everything goes sideways in a way she never expected it to.

Medical examiner Dr. Tom Baker has never forgotten Ava and the cold case she ran away from. When she shows up unexpectedly in town, in spite of himself, sparks fly. Which is terrible because he can’t stop his growing attraction to her. Can these two Type-As let their guards down and work together to put Ava’s tragic past behind her for good? And keep their hands off each other at the same time?

“A snarky romance—and well-crafted whodunnit—about a successful airline pilot forced to revisit the long-ago murder of her best friend.” —Shelf Awareness

“For some lighthearted and enjoyable fluff with a little murder thrown in, Truth, Lies, and Second Dates fits the bill.” —Fresh Fiction

I was very excited to read this book by this new to me author and while I can't say I'm mad at it and can't say I loved it either. In the end I'd guess I'd say that I was stuck somewhere in the middle with my personal opinion of it. There were some things I can honestly say really appealed to me and a couple things that simply didn't work for me. As for the things that really worked for me: The main and secondary characters, the clever banter, a good amount of humor and a solid mystery to try to sleuth out. So, what didn't work for me? The actual time given to this couple's romance. I found it not only slow-burning but too much confined to the backseat of pretty much everything else featured in this book. For me that is a big issue because I read books for the romance and while I felt there was a ton of potential here; it never got the chance to step into the spotlight and shine. I am freely posting a frank review.

ARC for honest review with no compensation Received from NetGalley Truth, Lies and Second Dates by Mary Janice Davidson is a laugh out loud, lots of chemistry, murder mystery but with lots more going and at times became somewhat confusing. Eventually figured out what was happening and overall was a good book.

An edge of your seat, emotionally thrilling and highly entertaining journey. This is a highly entertaining second chance romance filled with interesting charters, witty banter and undeniable passion..
