There's no denying trouble finds Rose Gardner like a divining rod finds water, especially when Rose finds herself in the middle of a bank robbery. But after the robbers steal her deposit bag—containing a large amount of cash—she soon finds out that thanks to her sister Violet’s financial mismanagement, trouble is threatening her business as well.
To top it off, Rose’s ex-boyfriend Joe Simmons has moved back to Henryetta to fill the chief deputy sheriff position. Rose’s involvement as a witness is the perfect opportunity for Joe to reinsert himself into her life. But Mason Deveraux, Fenton County Assistant District Attorney and Rose’s new boyfriend, has waited too long for Rose to give her up without a fight.
Rose’s pregnant best friend, Neely Kate, suggests they find the robbers using Rose’s visions and Neely Kate’s knowledge about everything in town. The women are soon hot on the trail of the stolen money, but Rose is caught off guard when Neely Kate’s snoopiness detects the biggest complication of all: Rose might be expecting a baby of her own.
Reviews
Cannot get enough
5By TinasbI cannot get enough of this series!Just when you think you can’t be surprised anymore..
5By PRC-88I love how even the most innocent of situations take a turn for the worst for Rose! She can’t even make a deposit without finding herself in a bank robbery!! My hatred for Violet continues to increase to the point that I’m pretty ragey during her scenes, but hey that means the writing is amazing right! I love how Denise is able to take extravagant scenarios and give them real-life emotions. I know I’ll never find myself in situations like Rose, but I still feel like I know what she’s feeling and going through. It makes these books so relatable but still fantasy. I really highly recommend this series!And a Half Series
5By Aunt Chi ChiI don’t remember how I found this Series, Maybe it found me. I love reading anything, but my search for murder mysteries ended one snowy day with the #1 book, Twenty Eight & a Half. I haven’t been disappointed in any of the sequence, today ending with this #5.The best so far!
5By HlgpoohThe best so far… Once again, Rose seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. While her current boyfriend, Mason, supports her, her ex-boyfriend, Joe, thinks she has somehow caused the trouble herself. Rose inadvertently gest mixed up in the Henrietta underground crime world while trying to recover her stolen money. We meet other interesting characters and get to know Neely Kate even more. So far this was my favorite book in the series partly because Rose really demonstrates her strength and her ability to stand up to other characters, even her sister. I love this series.Love it!
5By bengalfan78I don't think I could ever get enough of Rose Gardner, Her Man and her crazy fun friends. I almost wish these people existed and they were my friends. Rose has finally made her choice on who she wants to be with and the winner is Mason. However, Joe (rose's first love) refuses to give up without a fight. Joe is not going anywhere anytime soon and you have to wonder if this will pu a wrench in Rose and Mason's new relationship. Not that Rose needs to find her life in anymore turmoil, she finds herself smacked dab in the middle of a bank robbery. Unfortuntely the money that is stolen but's her nursery business in trouble. Rose refuses to ask Mason for the Money and decides to use her visions to investigate who stole her money. This lands her and Neely Kate into trouble they might not be able to get away from.I can't stop!

5By Sierra82614I love these novels. I am rating every single one five stars because I am so enchanted by the characters and writing.Great book!
5By Tess425Only Rose could walk into a bank to have it be robbed. So much for those visions helping her out? Hmm... Maybe Neely Kate is right? Rose needs her stolen money back fast. Who do you turn to in Fenton County when you need to catch a criminal? Not the police, that's for sure. Is Rose making a deal with the devil? Can she save her business in time? All the answers are only a few pages away in this must read book!Love it!!
