Harlequin & NetGalley gave me the opportunity to read an advance copy of Allison Brennan’s new book. Here is my honest review as well my Goodreads page https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/102469706-jamie :

This is the first the of series so all characters in the book were new. With Brennan’s writing I prefer reading the books that are part of series. Even without reading other books in the series the plot & characters don’t feel so rushed. The book reads smoothly and all parts come together in the end.

We have a family who is estranged over whether or not the father committed a crime. It created division in what could have been a family business - the mother, who was top lawyer in city; son, previously a cop; and one daughter, extremely tech savvy and in school. But Margo, the black sheep left for the military when she didn’t agree with everything they said about her father. So, we separate PI businesses in the same city. And yes they cross paths.

Fast forward to present day- Margo is doing PI work and helping a battered cop’s wife escape. ** This part is normal intense Allison Brennan suspense- good guys helping the bad….you have multiple moving parts. You’re intrigued by the sociopath husband who pretends he is wonderful when in fact he abuses his wife in multiple ways. And yet he acts beyond broken finding out she’s gone.

This part was happening simultaneously but I found it uninteresting. (It was not the normal intense “can’t stop reading”).
This other case going on with a client and supposed cheating husband being worked by Margo. For one the client was not a typical character in her books. She was annoying and not bright. I don’t know if it was how she was written but normally even annoying characters aren’t like this in her books. There is also a separate case being investigated by her family. The twist was it was into the husband that the wife of Margo‘s client thought was cheating. It was into his business though.

I thought the character Margo was developed well. And she stood out beyond the rest of everyone. I didn’t like the plot Margo’s case and her family’s intermixing. It lacked suspense compared the other part of book and it didn’t flow with plot.

I felt like there was some disconnect from one case to the other like they didn’t belong in the same book.

A new series has started. At first I was not sure I would like it but then I became immersed in the story and the characters. The chapters were headlined with the name of a character and that is the point of view and/or feelings that were related. Finishing the book,I feel I know the main family and will look forward to continuing with the series as the books come out.

I enjoyed this book, but was not my favorite of Allison Brennan's. I kept waiting for the characters to evolve, but it didn't really happen for me. I would describe this newest release as consistent and enjoyable.

Margo Angelhart is estranged from her family's PI business because of something that happened with her father. Margo does what she must to get by, including taking on casing where she has to catch a cheating husband in the act. It quickly becomes clear that her newest case somehow intersects with her siblings’ corporate espionage case. Will Margo be able to put her feelings aside to work with her family?

Allison Brennan has delivered another suspense book that will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout. Her characters are always intriguing, and the storyline is always well thought out. I like how this story is set up with different characters' points of view throughout. It helps the reader really get to know each character well. I found myself liking the whole Angelhart family. I enjoyed the fast-pace and read the story in under 24 hours because I just had to see what would happen next. I also enjoyed that it is set in Phoenix. I grew up in Phoenix and Brennan did an amazing job showcasing its beauty. I highly recommend it to anyone that enjoys suspense novels! I can’t wait to see what the Angelhart family is up to in the next installment!

You'll Never Find Me is a gripping tale of family, secrets, and the dark underbelly of the private investigation world. Margo Angelhart, estranged from her PI family, finds herself entangled in a dangerous web of deceit when her solo case collides with her siblings' high-stakes investigation. As they race against time to prevent a white-collar crime from turning deadly, the Angelhart siblings must confront their past and learn to trust each other once again.

With its fast-paced plot and compelling characters, You'll Never Find Me keeps readers hooked from start to finish. The author skillfully navigates the complexities of family dynamics and the moral gray areas of the justice system, delivering a thought-provoking narrative that will linger long after the final page is turned.

Filled with suspense, intrigue, and unexpected twists, You'll Never Find Me is a must-read for fans of mystery and suspense fiction.

Trigger warning: spousal abuse, rape, drugging.

What an inspiring read. I love the strong female characters that really stand up for what they believe in and how no matter what the Angelhart family has each others back.

You'll Never Find Me, the first novel in Allison Brennan's new Angelhart Investigations series, hits the ground running. Margo, a solo private investigator and a bit of a lone wolf, finds that one of her cases is mixed up in her siblings' own investigation, through their family PI business, Angelhart Investigations. Margo has refused to join the family firm but finds herself partnering up with her siblings in order to solve a crime, catch a thief, and hopefully prevent murder. I enjoyed the novel's fast pace, which kept me turning the pages, eager to find out what would happen next. In addition to the crime fiction focus, the dynamics of Margo's family were very compelling. I look forward to reading future novels in this series and to learning more about Margo's backstory and family - and to seeing her investigate more cases!

You’ll Never Find Me by Allison Brennan is another one of her strong mysteries. Several plots - including family drama, romance, intrigue and deception - are intertwined to make a solid, entertaining story.

Thanks to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing for the opportunity to read this ARC.

I’ve always liked Allison Brennan’s books and I’m adding this one to the list. This was very fast paced and multiple POVs, which I enjoyed so much! Totally recommend this satisfying read!

Thank you NetGalley and Mira for the advanced reader copy in exchange for my honest review!

Personally, this book just did not work for me at all. 2 stars MAX! This book was very cheesy and a luke warm read. The plot was not surprising. The writing was generic. And it read like a Lifetime made-for-tv movie. I am not a quitter so you can imagine my relief to finally finish it!

Nothing brings family together like crime.

Working alone as a private investigator is tough. Estranged from her PI family, Margo Angelhart does what she must to get by—including taking on sordid cases that pay the bills, even if she’d rather be helping those the justice system has failed.

An abused wife, an abusive cop husband, an embezzlement scheme, a cheating spouse and a whole lot more bring Margo, her brother Jack, her sisters and her mom together solving a few cases that all seem to come together at the end. This book screams sequel and I for one cannot wait!

In a new series from Allison Brennan, Margo Angelhart is a Phoenix PI tracking a rich tech guy whose wife thinks is cheating. Not her favorite type of case, but it pays the bills. When her case intertwines with a case her family's PI agency is working on, an agency she helped planned then shunned after a falling out with her mom, they work together to get to the bottom of presumed corporate espionage. Also in the mix, Margo helps an abused wife of a state trooper and their kids disappear with the assistance of her priest Uncle Rafe. I'm a longtime Brennan fan and will definitely add the Angelhart series to my reading list!

Another win for Allison Brennan as she begins a new series. Margo Angelhart is a great character and the storyline is one that keeps you turning the pages way later than you should. Definitely recommend

You'll Never Find Me features Margo as the protagonist and her family as the back up band.

Margot and her sibling are both investigating crimes that intersect - one a missing spouse and the other corporate espionage.

The book is told in chronological fashion, a feature I enjoy in a book.

It is an interesting read - not as full of sharp plot twists as I enjoy but a good book nonetheless

Holy cow! You’ll Never Find Me by Allison Brennan was such a wild and twisty ride and I enjoyed every minute of it! It was fast paced with multiple POVs and all the family drama. I couldn’t put it down!

Thank you to Harlequin Trade Publishing, NetGalley, and Allison Brennan for the complimentary ARC. All opinions expressed are my own.

A new Allison Brennan book is always exciting, but doubly so when it is the beginning of a new series. This is a fast paced thriller with well developed characters, I especially like Margo, the main character and can't wait to see what other adventures she gets up to. This one hooked me from page one and i didn't stop reading until I got through the various twists the the satisfying ending. Highly recommended

Thanks to NetGalley and MIRA publishing for an advanced reader copy

3.5 stars
Really enjoyed the story and character mix. The crime / suspense story kept me guessing and wasn’t a book where I’d figured out the ‘villain’ early on.
I was intrigued from the start and while the first few pages made me want to keep reading I did feel as though perhaps I had missed a previous book and I found there is novella before this book that at the time of reading had not been released. It took a bit into the book but I did get my answer as to why Margo was estranged from her family.
I like that the author has different characters point of view and has worked well in her other books but I felt there were too many different characters point of view in this book. I’m not sure if the author is setting up the series so each book is a difference main character.

Thanks to NetGalley and Harlequin MIRA for providing an advance copy of this title for review.

So excited that it looks like Allison Brennan is starting a new series. She's one of my favorite recommendations for patrons looking for twisty, well-written thriller that will keep you hooked until the last page, and You'll Never Find Me is no exception. Looking forward to what she writes next!

Margo Angelhart works alone. She doesn’t have time to deal with the tensions in her family’s PI business. That is until her latest client forces her to become entangled with her family once again. She and her siblings may not always see eye-to-eye but they are a force to be reckoned with then they team up. There are a lot of twists and turns as we try to figure out where Jennifer White is along with other unanswered questions that may or may not tie back to her disappearance. Check out the first of hopefully many in Allison Brennan’s series about Angelhart Investigations, You’ll Never Find Me. Thank you to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the ARC.

Another great book by Ms. Brennan, and hopefully a start to another great series!! A family PI business, and the one odd woman our due to a family conflict makes for a great read. Very good character development and a nice, strong female lead. 2 very interesting story lines that do keep you very well hooked.

Thank you to Net Galley and Harlequin publishing for allowing me to read a d review this ARC.
