Review

4.5 stars!

I fell in love with Cletus and Jenn in Beard Science so I was ecstatic to hear they were getting their own series. Engagement and Espionage did not disappoint! It is so good to be back in Green Valley with Cletus and Jenn and the rest of the Winston clan, and this book is a wonderful start to the new Solving for Pie series!!

I loved this book. Cletus and Jenn are as entertaining as ever and I couldn’t stop from falling for them all over again. They are quirky and fun and genuine. They are complicated and I loved once again being in their heads. They are both well written and true to their characters, and it was great to get more of them!

She’d revealed her genius to me last fall while proving to be the most brilliant opponent I’d ever faced, by far. She’d bested me. Consequently, having no choice in the matter, I’d promptly fallen in love with her and was now besotted. Obviously.

This book is as much about Cletus and Jenn’s relationship as it is about the mystery. I loved getting more of them as a couple. It’s not just easy breezy and they face realistic challenges. They have to work to make their love last, but they understand and love each other completely, especially the things that make them who they are. They know each other inside and out and I loved that they accepted one another unconditionally.

My peculiarities ranged from bizarre to obsessive, and I loved that hers did too.

The mystery is so well done. I questioned everyone and with each clue collected, I became more invested and desperately wanted to know the truth. I love how the story came together with the mystery and suspense. Just when you think it’s wrapped up another twist is thrown in the mix and it is exciting.

I love all the Winston’s and am so happy to get more of them. This book is just the beginning of the new series and it was so satisfying. I loved it and I can’t wait to see what else Cletus and Jenn get into as far as their relationship goes as well as the mysteries they solve. These two just can’t go wrong!!

She held a part of my soul. When we spoke or touched, that piece returned home, and the rest of my soul rejoiced at the reunion.
