Found Verity by Colleen Hoover on my library website and started reading it, about a woman asked to finish the books in a series the original author is unable to finish due to her serious illness. The plot sounds familiar but I can't find anywhere that I have read it before. Hmmm. Maybe plots are similar in some books.... I'll continue reading it even though it does sound familiar.
Paris Match isn't available till April 2027, but I have the ARC from NetGalley and as I love Paris, I'll read it now! The description of this mystery has me hooked, especially as the book takes the reader into the arrondissements of Paris.
Description
Fin Vollmer didn't do it.
A twenty-three-year-old American in Paris, Fin's luck is running out. He's been living off his wits and beauty, but his visa has expired and he can't go home to Ohio, where haunting memories await. He's turned to casual sex work to survive, but when Fin discovers a client murdered in his palatial apartment on Île Saint-Louis, Fin knows what's coming for him and he runs.
Jamie Hayes did.

I'm also reading The Family Friend by Claire Douglas, published in March 2026. A woman, Imogen, is flabbergasted to find out she has inherited a mansion in Bath, England, left to her by a deceased family friend, Dorothea Rowe, whom she last saw sixteen years ago.
Imogen has to deal with rumors that Dorothea was murdered and tries to find out the truth about her inheritance. Suspenseful, so far, I think as I read along.
What are you reading this week?
I'm currently reading the latest by Simone St. James and listening to Hayden pannetiere's memoir - which is odd because its read by her!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a good bunch! Hope you have fun with them. I haven't tried any Colleen Hoover... but then I don't read a lot of contemporary stuff in the genres she writes in.
ReplyDeleteI'm always on the look out for stories set in Paris, so I thank you for sharing Paris Match. I'll add it to my list of books to read next July.
ReplyDeleteYou might have seen the trailers for Verity and that’s what is prompting a memory of it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your reading week, enjoy your mysteries!
These certainly sound like excellent plots!
