June 24, 2009. Nominated for Best Book of the Week at The Long and Short of It. Orange Blossom gives 4 1/2 books, saying: "...Miss Mae certainly knows how to spin a mystery and drop the clues in exactly the right place at the right time... All the characters are so distinct. I could almost hear the intonation
of their voices. I definitely had a visual in my head from the word
picture presented by the author. Miss Mae is definitely becoming one of
my MUST READ authors..." Her whole review can be viewed here.

June 4, 2009. Anya of Coffee Time Romance gives Five Cups. She says: "...The book is a clever take on the Holmes/Adler style of mystery. It has
‘who dunnits’, tricky clues, characters that rival the best of the
genre. Our heroine, Winifred, is clever and interesting, but not
infallible, while Remington is charming and provides the strength for
Winifred..."

A Top Read Excellence at WRDF Reviews! Raye Stainel says: "...This was such a wonderfully charming and enjoyable
read! I chuckled at the dry wit and pondered the twist and turns of the
mystery....While “watching” the development of the very sweet
romance between Winifred and Remington, you get to play a game like “Clue,” or
even better -- one of those computer games where you have to solve
the riddle in one room to get to the next! I had to catch my breath at
some spots of danger and I said “ah ha!” as riddles got solved and doors got
unlocked! There are surprises galore…in the clues and in the true
identities of some of the characters! As Winifred and Remington are
thrown together and working out clues, they discover that their fathers have a
certain surprising connection that they may have to overcome....I enthusiastically
recommend this book for a very fun puzzler and sweet romance!"

May 31, 2009 from Linda Morelli of MyShelf.com says:
"... is a tantalizing mystery, one that admirers of
Sherlock Holmes will surely love. Each character faces a different ordeal to overcome, tests
that kept me on pins and needles as I tried to solve the mysteries along with them. Being a
lover of mysteries and romances, I enjoyed the personal challenges confronting Winifred and
Remington, due to the ties of their pasts, along with their growing love for each other.
Miss Mae has written an intelligent, suspenseful plot, its various threads expertly
intertwined, with a thoroughly satisfying ending. "
