"Legacy Lies Loyalty by Darlene Fredette is a cozy romantic suspense that blends family secrets, small town charm, and a tender love story. This story offers just the right balance of suspense, family drama, hidden connections, and unexpected love. The mystery unfolds at a steady pace, keeping the focus on Pearl’s family secrets while allowing Jordan and Logan’s romance to blossom naturally. The small, close knit community adds warm, cozy vibes that make the setting feel like home.
The romance is sweet and clean, filled with quiet chemistry and heartfelt moments. My favorite scene takes place in the kitchen, where the emotional tension between Jordan and Logan simmers just as much as the food.
If you enjoy cozy mystery with a gentle romance and a touch of suspense, this book is definitely worth adding to your reading list."

“Like a set of Russian nesting dolls, Ms. Fredette's latest Redford Falls novel layers suspense, romance, mystery, and secrets, drawing the reader in. The story reminds you of an Agatha Christie mystery with its complex storyline and numerous characters to suspect as you unwrap the elements of the book and are surprised at every turn. Along with the mysteries, there are moments of gut-wrenching suspense, laced enticingly with a heart-stopping romance between the two main characters.”

“The final solving of the mysteries felt like a scene from the wonderful old film noir tropes like The Thin Man, with all the suspects present as the suspense builds and some very unexpected revelations come to light. Once again, I enjoyed Darlene Fredette’s writing style and her imaginative storytelling.”
