What she's not predicted is that the woman's dead body would appear in her car boot! She's arrested but the formidable family and team around her aren't going to stand by and do nothing while she's framed.. even if Mandy does feel deep down it's somehow just after she killed a man and walked away a free woman.. It's going to take them all and Peter's delightfully, devious lawyer to dig out the truth. With corruption in the police force itself things aren't looking good and James is preparing to break the law himself to keep Mandy free..

So good! This book starts from a month on from the ending of the last book. Mandy's dealing with the aftermath of what she did in the last book. It weighs heavily on her emotionally. This gets explored thoroughly in this book. There's no quick solution which is shown really well. Usually in books, certain events are glossed over and not explored like they can be. It was lovely to read about Mandy struggling over what she ultimately had to do. On top of that, Mandy is arrested for the murder of a So good!

There are lots of secrets and truths that come out in this book which were interesting. Fan read!!

Another fantastic story for James and Mandy! This story seemed a little bit darker than most, which makes sense given how the last book ended. Mandy is not yet back to her usual self, and the reappearance of James' former girlfriend doesn't help matters. They work through everything and are finally back to a great...until Mandy is accused of murder. As always, I loved this book. Mandy and James had some hard scenes (their fight was hard to watch) but they came out stronger than before. The myster Another fantastic story for James and Mandy!

Mandy and James had some hard scenes (their fight was hard to watch) but they came out stronger than before. The mystery had me completely roped in, and of course James and Mandy's love story made this book amazing. There were also some funny moments, which I always appreciate. I love any time Peter makes an appearance! My only gripe: Ally. She was barely in this story, but the few scenes that she had really make her so unlikable. But James and Mandy more than made up for it. I cannot wait to see where the gang goes from here!

Once again Lily Harper Hart delivers with humour, romance, friendship, unbreakable family bonds, mystery, suspense and so much more. I laughed so much my sides hurt, I also cried so much I ran out of tissues. Mandy and James kill me and crack me up so much they are an awesome couple and part of a wonderful family. Just when you think there lives might calm down a bit trouble strikes again and seriously this time how it comes about is just weirdly funny when you count ex's, dirty cops and lawyers p Once again Lily Harper Hart delivers with humour, romance, friendship, unbreakable family bonds, mystery, suspense and so much more.

Another great addition to the story of the Hardy family. Some parts were annoying to me (AKA selfish Ally) and the recapping at this point is pointless. These are not books you can just up and read as stand alone, so as a series by this number in, I don't need to be reminded what happened again in every previous book, the readers know! It takes me out of the story and waste time. Overall thou this is one of my favorite series and I can't wait to read the next! Another great addition to the story of the Hardy family.

My favorite family is back I enjoyed this Hardy Brothers mystery and the James and Mandy romance. Although I have to admit that at times James doesn't come off as the brightest bulb in the package. For the head of the security team, he sometime comes off as more immature then I would expect. My favorite family is back I enjoyed this Hardy Brothers mystery and the James and Mandy romance.
