One Little Lie cover

Synopsis:

Jane Hardy is appointed interim sheriff in Pelican Harbor, Alabama, after her father retires, but there's no time for an adjustment period. When her father is arrested for theft and then implicated in a recent murder, Jane quickly realizes she's facing someone out to destroy the only family she has.
After escaping with her father from a cult fifteen years ago, Jane has searched relentlessly for her mother—who refused to leave—ever since. Could someone from that horrible past have found them?
Reid Bechtol is well-known for his documentaries, and his latest project involves covering Jane's career. Jane has little interest in the attention, but the committee who appointed her loves the idea of the publicity.
Jane finds herself depending on Reid's calm manner as he follows her around filming, and they begin working together to clear her father. But Reid has his own secrets from the past, and the gulf between them may be impossible to cross—especially once her father’s lie catches up with him.

Review:

Colleen NEVER disappoints, you'll always get a book that's not only keeps your interest, but has you rapidly turning pages long into the night! This new series keeps up her standard, with a solid debut entry! Jane is obviously flawed by her childhood experiences, turns a blind eye to her dad's eccentricities, and now has mere days to prove that she CAN be the new chief and handle a department that might not want her there AND solve multiple cases, including a homicide (or two). While there are many things that the reader picks up on quite early, it watching to see how Jane picks them up, that keeps the readers attention. A quick read, this is perfect for getting lost in small town shenanigans,
