This was such an interesting read for me. Looking forward to reading more such books. I found the tone of the novel to be in perfect alignment to the text and context.

This is the first book Ive read in the series and I do think reading the previous ones would have helped.

Jolie and Scoobie are getting married which brings the community together. After the wedding Scoobie discovers he has a half Brother who needs him. Does he want to find out more about the Father who abandoned him? Its very much a character based mystery.

The Unexpected Resolutions by Elaine Orr is the 10th book in the Jolie Gentil cozy mystery series. I really enjoyed this book/series. Very entertaining, and couldn't put it down. I recommend, this book for all mystery lovers.

I received this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.

This story with Jolie’s family and wedding to Scoobie has well rounded characters you can relate too. Jolie is pregnant but still leads the way when new people in town cause a wedding surprise that was not planned. They have a town community that cares about its neighbours. Enough to help when Scoobie is solving the mystery of his new family. You will want to see what’s next for Jolie and her family with Aunt Madge leading the way.
This was my first Jolie Gentil cozy mystery and can certainly be read as a stand alone but l would recommend following the other stories in the series.
I was given an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I did not realize until after I read this book and looked up the author this is a series of books. Well this author now has a new fan! I could not put this book down and read it in a day. Jolie and Scoobie are getting married. Jolie is also pregnant with their first child. On their wedding day Scoobie finds out that his father who abandoned him is in a car accident. But that is not all he finds out he has a 10 year old brother Terry. I don't want to spoil it but it is a great story line with some twists and turns which will keep you guessing. I really liked the character of Max (who was hit with a snowplow), and the care and kindness the author showed with his disabilities. The animals Jazz, Pepper and the 2 dogs. You will laugh, cry (I did in some parts) and love the writing style of this author. I also found the emotions of both Scoobie and Terry to be very real and true. I look forward to reading more of her books and the continuing story of Jolie, Scoobie and Terry.
I received this book in exchange for my honest opinion.

It's the first book in read in this series and it's really good.
The plot is engaging and interesting, the cast of characters are likeable and the plot is sound and engaging.
Even if I didn't read the other book in this series I had no problems in understanding the characters and their relationship.
I will surely look for the other book in this series.
Recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC

A different sort of story with Jolie, Scoobie and the other characters we’ve come to know. No murders, not a thriller but there is a very personal mystery. Terriffic, well-written story.

Love, love, love, this cozy series, and this might be the best one yet. Jolie & Scoobie are finally, " tying the knot", in their own eclectic style, but they've got a few surprises in store for them. No spoilers, just know there are some answers revealed in this story that were big parts of earlier books. Can't wait to see what happens next. Read the entire series for maximum reading pleasure. Thanks for the preview book. Keep writing Elaine Orr!!!!!
