The ending left me wanting to continue reading, I can't wait to read book five of the Sharyn Howard Mysteries series,.stars

Until Our Last Embrace is the entertaining fourth installment in the Sharyn Howard Mystery series.
It is a quick read, and even though it is shorter than I would prefer, the story is well thought out and nicely written.
The pace of the story is good with suspects and clues revealed in a thoughtful manner,

Sharyn is questioning her role as sheriff and what she would do with herself if she wasnt sheriff.
Reelection season is approaching, and political and financial heavyweights are throwing their weight around, Despite a rather substantial age difference, the district attorney is making romantic advances, and Sharyns refusal in turn makes her life more difficult.
She still seems oblivious to the medical examiner Nicks feelings about her, and other members of her staff are facing personal problems of their own.
A bear attack sets the town on edge, but it is soon revealed that the attack is covering up a more serious crime.
As Sharyn investigates, no one is who they say they are and nothing is really what it seems.
With Nick by her side, Sharyn works out the truth,

Joyce and Jim Lavene had a knack for bringing complex, flawed characters to life, and Sharyn and company are no exception.
They are well developed, yet they continue to grow with each book, I cannot wait to see what lies ahead for them all, The mystery is solid. As with the characters, the plots grow more complex with each installment, I loved all of the twists leading to each surprising reveal,

I enjoyed my time with the sheriff and recommend it to fans of cozy mysteries and more traditional crime/police procedurals.


I received a copy of this book from the authors in exchange for an honest review.
This did not influence my opinions,
Sheriff Sharyn Howard is faced with a new murder and a series of events that dont seem to make sense.
Yet there is deadly intent behind them, When Darva Richmonds body is found on Diamond Mountain, partially eaten by bears, her death looks accidental and tragic.
Until honey and bear attractant are found on her clothes and strychnine in her body,

Darvas nervewracked husband seems to be the obvious subject, but lurking in the background is his bitter family, who want to keep the inheritance he and Darva were seeking out of their reach.
Darvas elderly aunt appears to help Sharyn with the case, but could she

be doing more harm than good

To top it all off, all of Sharyns deputies seem to have spring fever as the winters end nears.
Shes afraid the killer just might get away with murder! Until Our Last Embrace is the fourth book in A Sharyn Howard Mystery and was absolutely fantastic! I could not put it down, it had me hooked from the start with twists and turns and surprises I did not expect.

Sharyn Howard is a strong independent, take action women not always liked by everyone,
Darva Richmond is discovered on Diamond Mountain the victim of a bear attack, As Sheriff Sharyn Howard continues to look closer it seems the bear attack was not the cause of death.
What was
Sharyn also has two men that are romantically interested in her, District Attorney Jack Winter and Nick the M.
E. Her mother's engagement to Senator Caison Talbot does not make her happy as she does not like him and the party is coming up.
