When the Bough Breaks Book Review


The sixth book in the Rose Gardner Investigations series.

For months, Rose has suspected her ex-brother-in-law, has a foot in the criminal world, and she’s equally sure her deceased sister had the evidence to prove it—evidence stolen days just days after Violet’s death.

He hurt me. He’s lied to me. He’s hidden things from me. He’s endangered my life. He refuses to explain why he does what he does or any significant part of his life. He acts like a child when he doesn’t get his way and has a vicious temper. Yeah, I see the good in him, but I needed that man to step up last fall.
Denise Grover Swank

Those suspicions turn concrete when a body shows up near one of Mike’s construction sites, and the concrete cracks open wide when her niece and nephew go missing.

Rose might be weeks away from delivering her own baby, but that doesn’t stop her and her best friend, Neely Kate, from looking for the kids. She needs answers and fast, but her search leads her to the man who betrayed her months ago… the father of her baby.

James “Skeeter” Malcolm has been playing games with her for months—refusing to relinquish her paternity but refusing to tell her why. James knows what Mike is up to—Rose is sure of it—but can she convince him to tell help before it’s too late?

For full disclosure, Denise Grover Swank is one of my favourite authors, I have read all of her books and eagerly await her new releases, which are always excellent, and this was no different!

I have been following Rose and Nealy Kate since the first book, 28 and a half wishes (if you haven’t read any go and start there!). after the last book I was hoping that things might change for Rose and James as I’ve always been #TeamSkeeter but alas it seems not to be…for now at least!

This was another great book, following all of the characters from the series, I enjoy seeing the characters develop more with each book and feel like they are people I actually know now, especially after so many books! Denise’s writing keeps you reading and involved with the story. The books are a great length for a fairly quick read that holds your imagination well and never gets boring!

There are so many different emotions in this book, laughter and tears and at times holding your breath and wishing for the best for the characters… you can’t wait to read the next chapter to find out what happens next. A great ending and nothing less than expected for the way things go in Rose’s life!

Looking forward to the next book in the series already!
