Oh what a tangled web the author weaved in the art of deceiving. The murder of a girl opens a Pandora's box of a litany of secrets, lies and other nefarious happenings in Scarlett Falls.

This new series is set in a location fans of Melinda Leigh's will be familiar with. It's a spin off of her Scarlet Falls trilogy series and features the sister of Stella Dane who was the heroine in the last book of that series.

Morgan Dane is a widow who was left with 3 young daughters to raise on her own after her husband died in Iraq. She's recently moved back home to Scarlet Falls to live with her grandfather who helps with the girls. After two years of taking a break from her job as an assistant DA to grieve, she has decided to go back to work in the same field but before she starts her plans get derailed when she decides to be the lawyer for a 20 year old family friend who has just been accused of viciously murdering his girlfriend. She enlist the help of a childhood friend, Lance Kruger who is currently working as a Private Investigator for Lincoln Sharp.

Great start to the series with a strong female lead who uses her intelligence to solve problems, can psychically take care of herself but yet also isn't afraid to show a vulnerable side. Lance is also a strong leading male character but without being to over the top alpha. He and Morgan work great together along with Sharp and I look forward to seeing them solve more cases together in future books.

Morgan Dane has returned to her home town of Scarlet Falls with her 3 daughters after her husband is killed in Iraq. When her former babysitter is brutally murdered a neighbor teen is arrested. The teen is known to Morgan's family and she can't believe he is guilty. She agrees to defend him against the charges. She asks her friend, ex cop and now private eye, Lance Kruger to help her investigate the case.

This is the first book in a new series for Melinda and it is a great start! The book will grab your attention right from the beginning and not let go til the end. There are a lot of twists in the story, some I didn't see coming. I look forward to reading more about Morgan. Thank you to net galley for an advanced readers copy.

My all time favourite author!! If it were possible Id give this all the stars in Heaven!! "Say you're sorry" is the irst book in the Morgan Dane series. It caused me endless sleepless nights simply because I couldnt put it down!! I reckon this one is Melinda's best one yet and that's saying something!! Bring on the next one Melinda!! Thank you Netgalley.

Thanks to netgalley and Melinda Leigh for the advance copy of say you're sorry in exchange for a honest review. I'm a HUGE fan of melindas books and I've read them all to date and loved every book. Say you're sorry is the first book in the new Morgan Dane series and I loved it I couldn't put it down!!! It features Morgan who's husband has was killed in Iraq leaving her alone with 3 little girls and she moves back home to Scarlett Falls and encounters Lance Kruger a private investigator who is also a former childhood sweet heart of Morgan's. One night there is a house party near the lake and a girl gets brutally murdered and a guy called Nick gets arrested and charged for her murder but Morgan knows him well and believes he's innocent and though it costs her her career she sets out to prove it wasn't him. Melindas books just hook you in from the very beginning and Say you're sorry was no different and it just might be even be her best book to date!

I loved this book. Full of twists and turns that keep you guessing till the very end. Dark, suspenseful, thrilling. A must read . Melinda Leigh is a master at suspense. I'm hoping to see more Morgan Dane and her family. Thank you for a great read.
