CHERRY CREEK MYSTERIES Book #1
KIM'S REVIEW:
A friend, actually a couple of friends, highly recommended C. C. Warren’s books, so last year I started with Criss Cross (book 1 of the Holly series) and I was hooked. I mean Marx alone will keep you reading this series, but I digress! Lol. Anyway, I have read most of her backlist, since then. I am so glad I gave her a try!
I really liked meeting the characters in this new series. Noelle has been through a major tragedy and is in the process of trying to recover. Your heart will just ache for her and all she has been through. Derek, who is the captain at the local sheriff’s office, is the perfect guy to help her not only with her past, but with all the strange things going on in her new house, which is steeped in tragedy. The mystery kept me glued to the pages while trying to figure out just what was happening and why. The suspense is top notch and the hint of romance is perfect!
Just like all of her stories, Firefly Diaries sucked me in right from the start. I am really enjoying these new characters and this new series! I cannot wait to start the second story, Dragonfly Ashes.
*I purchased this book. All opinions are my own. 5 stars!

BackCover Blurb:
"The
world whipped around her in a dizzying funnel of lights and shouts,
people in uniforms pressing in from all directions. Noelle sat
motionless in the street, barely able to breathe. His little body was
too still. Too broken."
Noelle's world shattered that night, like
the pieces of headlights scattered across the dark street. There was no
rebuilding her life around the grave of her child.
Adrift in her
grief, Noelle finds herself drawn to an old house as rundown and weary
as her spirit. She might not be able to mend her own brokenness, but
maybe she can restore this abandoned structure to its former beauty.
Determined, she throws herself into a renovation project with the
unexpected help of a local. But she soon learns that her new home comes
with a blood-stained history and a chilling reputation.
When she
stumbles across a diary written by a child with a disturbing life, and a
teenage girl vanishes from the village, clues leave Noelle wondering if
her house might somehow be connected. Someone -- or something -- wants
her gone, but she has no intention of leaving without discovering the
truth.
