So grateful for these new FIVE-STAR reviews.
Thank you, dear readers!
when one finds that a friend is a skilled writer! I just had the
pleasure of reading my first Jillian Bradley Mystery, likely not the
last, feeling exhausted from my exciting trip to glorious California (my
husband and I consider it our second home!).......that's how delicious
the descriptive writing was. I also enjoyed a faith based novel, fun
and easy reading, perfect for this holiday weekend. And the most
delightful aspect was precious Teddy, a sweetly written doggie character
I so wish I could invite to play with my cocker. All in all, a lovely
story from a lovely lady!

Jillian Bradley had a mystery come knocking. She couldn't ignore it; her family was involved.
Nancy Jill Thames allows the plot of Pacific Beach to unfold and the suspense to build with an expertise that keeps her readers guessing. I like that this cozy mystery has positive family values. I love that even her dog becomes a well-rounded character.
I'm looking forward to "Waiting for Santa."
One of the best things about Kindle freebies is discovering a new Author. Nancy Jill Thames is a real find, her heroine Jillian Bradley sends up arrow prayers throughout the day just like I operate, and owns a Yorkie named Teddy, just like I would love! An easy read, full of mystery and murders and I was confident I would not come across any unnecessary - aren't they all - swear words. I will be purchasing the rest of her books for my next holiday.
5.0 out of 5 stars Let's go to SAN DIEGO!! August 9, 2012
For those of you who have been there you know it's easy to love San Diego. This author "aces" capturing the ambiance of San Diego in a resort setting. I could feel the warmth of the sun and the relaxing atmosphere laying around the pool with different characters in the book. The murder mystery was believable but not predictable. This author is just getting better with each book.

This review is from: Murder in Half Moon Bay (The Jillian Bradley Mysteries, Vol. 1) (Paperback)
What a fun read!! I enjoyed the author's descriptions and her ability to
"put me" in the room with the characters. I fell in love with her dog
"Teddy" and having him involved with the story was refreshing. I looked
forward to the time I spent reading this book and am excited about
reading more from this author. Great Book!!
