My rating is for the whole book. I hope you take this to a publisher-even though I've read it, I would buy it. You have lot's of talent, and yes, I'm being honest. Please, be a writing teacher!

there is another story, starting that now. It will be interesting, a new case and her personal life blossoming. A new adventure for me. Thank you for reading and the comments. Not sure what the new book will be called yet. But thanks again for checking out my story.

i think there should be more becuase you have not created a adfequate ending still leaves the reader hanging so i think you need at least one more post for closure

I left it open to continue as a series, I think this will work so I am going to try it out. If not, I can go back and change this ending. Thank you for the suggestion, I will keep it in mind.

I hope there is more. I like the twist in gender roles as society tries to desperately keep up with literature and the human mind of progressive thinking women and some men.
You should consider a female Columbo/Sherlock Holmes with a little bit of feminine Jason Bourne for your next book.

Nice closing as it leaves the reader wanting the next book. Sort of like page 47 in National Treasure

Rest and then start again.
Steve!

I haven't read any previouse chapters of your book as I'm a new member, but I enjoyed this. The dialoge was great the characters came across as believable and as an ending was just right.

It was a good ending to a story, I thought. I will miss them, as this was the end of the book, but I think I am going to do a sequel. I fell in love with the characters and I am going to work with it and see what I can come up with. thank you for checking out my story,

I have not reviewed because I have been slack BUT I have read your story and I love it, I don't normally like detective stories but this I did enjoy. I have decided I am going to start my own book - keep an eye out soon I am going off to start now. My affair is about to step up a notch!!

Very good. I am glad you enjoyed this book, it was more than just a detective novel, it was almost a love story (that was the original plan) and I am debating doing a sequel since I did leave it open. I will be looking for your book, have fun with your affair, I am going a step further with mine. I am tired of waiting for my happily ever after, so I am going to make my own. thank you for reading

I am going to write my book about the journey I have taken over the past twelve months especially. The working title at the moment is "My Silent Sentence" - gloves are coming off and all the shit I have been through shall be revealled. A cathartic write in my journey of discovering who I am.

Second, great ending! lol. This opens doors for a series. I really enjoyed this story. Ryan and Burly deserves each other and happiness. I'll be looking for my own personal autograph copy. Good luck and God bless Elaine.
