Cold Case True Crime is book 5 in the multi-author Unsolved Mystery series. The story is entertaining and suspenseful, and the characters are likable. Samantha finds herself in some sticky situations as she investigates a murder. She does have some help from Detective Gregory Harris, and the chemistry between them makes for an engaging romance. Denise N Wheatley blends the two sides of this tale very well so that both the suspense and the romance are allowed to shine without casting a shadow on the other one. Some things are a little over the top, but it is fiction, and believable or not, it's definitely a fun read.

This is my first book by this author and after reading this i can say I wasn't disappointed at all, even though there was times I was shaking my head at some of the things Samantha did but over all the story and Gregory made up for. Other big win was how the author used the idea of Samantha having a true crime podcast , which is one of my favorite types of podcast to listen to and the way the author wrote and blended the story and romance was perfect, because neither one canceled the other out, you got the perfect mixture of both .

This is a fun and dramatic romantic suspense that I throughly enjoyed. Our heroine, Samantha, was spunky and hard headed which were qualities that came in handy during her investigation. The fact that she is a blogger was just icing on the cake since that is something that all of us here can instantly relate to. Detective Gregory was a worthwhile hero for Samantha since most of the time he seemed more into her than the investigation. The investigation itself was where the dramatics came in and while some things didn't make sense it was entertaining and engaging which are the important things. Samantha and Gregory are looking into the murder of her childhood friend, Jacob, since the whole town is certain they know who killed him. The only problem is that the potential killer just happens to be the son of the police chief. Gregory and Samantha's snooping takes them into some pretty precarious situations and the ending was completely unexpected. This is a clean romance so if you aren't necessarily a fan of romance than I still think this one that you would enjoy if the synopsis sounds intriguing to you. Harlequin Intrigue is my favorite of the different categories and this one lived up to my expectations.
