What an explosive and exciting read!I’m not actually a huge fan of novellas as I generally find them a little too short for my taste but The Summer Nanny was definitely worth making an exception for. After a good solid opening chapter, the tension built and the action really started to happen.The characters created by the author, Audrey J Cole, were fascinating in themselves and the pacing was perfect for the story. With an effortlessly transitioning plot-line, the suspense just built and built
The Summer Nanny is a fabulous read by Audrey J Cole. This quick read is full of thrilling suspense and mystery that kept me wondering what would happen on the following page. There were twists and turns I did not expect. The Summer Nanny is getting four and a half stars from me. It is most definitely worth a read and recommend it for readers who love to read suspense filled books. I am looking forward to more by this author in the future. I received this book from publisher. This review is 100%...
Wow! This is everything a murder mystery should be. It’s terrifying and horrifying. It’s a psychological story as well. What’s next?
Even though this is a short story. It has great characters in books. You learn their faults. It has a fast pace plot that is well developed. Bridgett is like super nanny who outsmart the intruder while still protecting Leo. It is a great book. Well written by Audrey Cole. I would definitely read another book by her.
Wow, I just loved this book. It was full of suspense and really kept me hooked until the end. I just wish it could have been longer. I have listened to the other stories in this series and they weren't in order so it was nice to find out what happened to Tess's brother. It didn't effect the story not being in the right order and won't make any difference if you haven't heard the rest but I ask you why wouldn't you? All the book are excellent and it is definitely a must listen to series. The char...
No mere enthralling page turner, but rather an obsessive one night stand of a fixated read. I could not apply due diligence to focus on sleep till I finished the novella. Once again Cole delivers a smoothly transitioning plotline - an excellently addictive author! My only slight quibble would be the regenerative survival of the unfittest…the demented persistence of the killer left me wanting to step into the last chapter and take a walk on the morally bankrupt side myself. But perhaps that is Co...
This short story in the Emerald City series was just ok. I don't typically care for these stories since I find them way too short to create a compelling tale, unless its a prequel, which this one gives no indication that it is. The characters are thinly drawn, and the premise was a common one, with limited backstory to understand motives. It was pretty obvious who the villian was from almost the beginning. What saves the story is Author Cole's relentless pacing and action packed scenes that made...
In this short Emerald City Thriller, Audrey Cole has woven a fascinating and suspense filled story that has a surprising twist. Novellas can be challenging, especially one that is only 65 pages long. Cole does a great job in creating a main character that you care about and want to see come through this harrowing experience alive.If blood and violence isn't your thing, The Summer Nanny might not be your type of story, but it definitely gets the heart pumping as Bridgett works to outwit the intru...
Absolutely brilliant read! This is a thriller you won’t want to put down. I seriously loved this book. From the start, you are pulled right into the story. You get to know the main characters, including the parents and Leo, and you fall for them, even if there are faults. As we get to know them and really see how much our nanny wants the best for Leo. Then as things start to go pear-shaped her care for Leo intensifies, including going as far as to appease the demands, to try and save the boy. I
The Summer Nanny: An Emerald City Thriller Novella was a great read by Audrey J. Cole. Bridgett has been enjoying her summer job as a nanny for a famous actor. She is very generously compensated but also has a strong bond with the little boy. She has also fallen for Chris, a landscaper on the property. On the Fourth of July, her boss’ hold a major charity event. While Bridgett is working that night, a masked intruder breaks into the home. She will do anything that she can to save the baby. I enj...
A short but not so sweet thriller that kept me hooked until the end. A nanny thought she was just going to babysit a 18-month-old son of a rich family realizes that her night was about to turn into a nightmare when she heard a door close upstairs. But she was alone. This plot line fits perfectly for a short story. I also love the writing and I would definitely check out the author's novels after this.My only problem is that the motive feels unrealistic to me. I just don't think someone would go
