This was a very easy read. A real page turner. I found myself really into the book “like telling characters to back off”. I CAN’T WAIT UNTIL THE NEXT BOOK COMES OUT. Thank you B. G. Howard

The characters in the book kept me wondering what would happen next. Somehow, while reading, I felt I knew them. I often wondered if the writer was a character. “Family Ties”

I love to read, I just rarely have time to do so. Once I opened this book, I could not put it down. I absolutely cannot wait for the release of the next one in the series!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this novel. “Family Ties” Some of it, I can relate to in my younger years. The author, B G Howard, takes you on journey through life’s mysteries. When I got the book on Friday and started reading, I couldn’t put it down. It was as if I was in the story. I look forward to the sequel.
