desertcart.com: Say You're Sorry: 9781503948709: Leigh, Melinda: Books Review: What can I say, this book is a 100 (A+) - I loved this book. It was a thriller from beginning to end. Since it is Book 1 of the Morgan Dane series, if it gets better, or more thrilling, from here I won't be able to read them at night. As I told Mollie, my granddaughter, who sent me a text yesterday (5/15/17) telling me the paper she wrote for English (and which I edited) netted her a 100, I love it when a teacher recognizes a perfect paper when she reads one. This is a 100 book. Morgan Dane is an attorney who has had a stellar career as a deputy prosecutor. She and her husband, a military man stationed in Iraq, have three young daughters. Then, Morgan finds herself a widow responsible for raising her three young girls alone, Struggling to cope, she returns home and moves into the house with her father. She has finally decided it is time to go back to work and has agreed to work in the local prosecuting attorney's office. Then the young girl who occasionally babysits for her is found dead and their neighbor, Nick, the teenaged boy who plays chess with her dad and reads bedtime stories to her girls, is accused of the murder. Since Nick and his father don't have the money to hire a competent attorney, they ask Morgan to represent him. She realizes this is the other side of the "legal aisle" from the job she just said she would accept, but she feels compelled to do it. This story has it all. A crazy killer, a young murder victim, whose last words to the grandparents who have raised her since her parents died were angry words, a young boy who lives with his father and helps with his dad's landscaping business, and who has never shown any criminal tendencies, but is now accused of murder, a missing teenaged girl, and a private detective hired to look for a missing teenager - there are connections between the missing girl, the dead girl, and the former prosecuting attorney who is now considering representing the accused murderer. Melinda Leigh is great at writing thrillers with a touch of romance. If you like mysteries, you'll love this book. If you like a human-interest story with a touch of romance, you'll love this book. If you like reading, you'll love this book. I can't recommend it highly enough. Review: Twisty tale with good characterization - What a great start to a new series by Melinda Leigh! Say Youโre Sorry features attorney Morgan Dane who has returned to her home town of Scarlet Falls, New York after the death of her husband in Iraq. Living with her grandfather and her three young daughters, sheโs finally decided to go back to work. However, her previous babysitter is killed and her neighbor asks her to defend his son who is accused of the murder. Morgan asks her childhood friend Lance Kruger to help with the investigation so they can identify the real killer. Morgan is a former prosecutor who is often underestimated by others. Sheโs independent, compassionate, and understanding. Kance is an ex-police officer turned private investigator after an on-the-job injury. Heโs intense, courageous, and is his motherโs caregiver. Readers also get insight into a killer This novel is part investigation, part family drama, and part crime thriller with a little romance. The storyline is engaging, suspenseful, and includes some very tense scenes. The first chapter pulled me into the tale quickly and kept me rapidly turning the pages all the way to its conclusion. This engrossing novel keeps you on the edge of your seat as the race is on to find the killer. As always, the world-building is great. The author has weaved another installment involving family, relationships, trauma, a slow-burn romance, murder, lies, violence, missing persons, and much more. Overall, this book has twists, a little tension, and relatable main and secondary characters. If you are expecting a solid series that will have mysteries, crime, action, and a little romance, then this is a series that I recommend. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series. I purchased a copy of this novel. All opinions expressed in this review are my own. The publication date was May 16, 2017.

Say You're Sorry is book one of Morgan Dane series by Melinda Leigh. Morgan Dan who came home to Scarlet Falls after the death of her husband and through everything was moving forward after accepting a job with the local prosecutor's office. However, that was not the case when one night Morgan Dane received a call that will change her dreams and her life forever. Morgan Dane accepts to defend her neighbour's son for the murder of his girlfriend. Lance Kruger became involved when Morgan Dane asked him to help with the case. The readers of Say You're Sorry will go on a rollercoaster ride with Morgan and Lance to find who killed Tessa. Say You're Sorry is the first book I have read of Melinda Leigh and I did enjoy reading it. Melinda Leigh has created a great female hero in Morgan Dan. I like the way, Melinda Leigh portrayed her characters and intertwined then throughout Say You're Sorry. I love the twist and turns that Melinda Leigh provided her readers throughout Say You're Sorry. The readers of Say You're Sorry you will learn about being a defence. Attorney. Also, the readers of Say You're Sorry will understand the consequences of framing someone for something they did not do. Say You're Sorry also highlights the problems that acrophobia causes for everyone involved. I recommend this book.

Story line was superb as were the characters, a tough tale of teenagers being abused by their peer group & adults. The Sharp Agency link up with ex cop Lance & ex Prosecutor Morgan was superb. All the characters were extremely well interlaced with the story line & kept me enthralled to the last page. Great writing Melinda ๐๐
