Bean in Love (A Kelly Clark Mystery Book 2): A Kelly Clark Mystery Book 2

This second novel in this fun, and interesting, romantic suspense series, was a quick and confusing at times, mystery.Kellie and sister, Nikki, owner of Chocolate Love are busy talking about Nikki's proposed business expansion to 'Bean in Love' when a friend of theirs dies. The police feel it was a suicide but Kellie and Nikki who found him just aren't so sure.Things get even more complicated when the deceased's twin comes to town and wants the Clarke sisters to investigate.Complicating things further, the third sister, Adelle, needs to borrow Kellie's apartment over the Chocolate Love store as her family downsizes. Kellie also has to deal with her romantic life, and Nikki has a secret that becomes quite noticeable.This is a romantic suspense novel. A cozy genre but the mystery seems second to the romantic goings on of the entire family. That being said, this series is very enjoyable and I look forward to reading the next title.

I read this book immediately following reading the firs book of this series. This story is a lot different. Where the first book was long, and detailed, this one was not. This book also didn't seem as polished. I liked this story, but the flow was very different than in the first book. In the first book of the series, you felt like you were seeing the entire story through a camera on Kelly's shoulder. Like a documentary. In this one, it was more like a TV show that was cut only to include anything directly about the murder mystery. It is too excerpted. I still love the story and the characters, but it just doesn't match the excitement I had reading the first book. I will continue to read Hansen's work however, because I do like her writing. I get drawn in to her words and can see just what she's writing through pictures in my mind.

I read the 1st book, which is a pretty good book. This book is so bogged down in the heroines selfishness that I just want to slap her!! #1, her terrible "tragedy" was not horrible , #2 her sisters face some real issues but she can only see how it affects her, #3 her boyfriend tried hard but you guessed it, it's all about her. For crying out loud the woman is about 30 years old not 15!!

I enjoyed reading this book and I enjoyed the charactors too. It is a very enteraining book. Thank you for writing it.

Couldn't put this one down. Had to read to the end & quickly. Not a lot of twists & turns but definitely difficult to figure out who did it.

Well written, you will find it hard to put down and the ending was a surprise to me! I think you will be glad you got the book!

good read

This was an enjoyable book.. It has a fun family of sisters and a good plot.. I was surprised at who the murderer was.. A book that keeps me guessing is always a plus..

The second book in the series. Marked down again for typos, needs more editing.Again I liked the characters but found this second book a bit repetitive.

really enjoyed this book. I got both of the books by Annie Hansen free , glad I did .

I liked the way the book was written, good character description.I understand the trauma underwent by the main character, but I find the degree of the constant returning to the past a bit over normal.
