I enjoyed this quick story It ended rather abruptly though almost like the author had a timeline and time was up I did like the angst and I really felt bad for Casper Mystery Thrillers Gay Lesbian Literature Fiction Fabulous short read but maaaan Caz is a much better person than I am Mystery Thrillers Gay Lesbian Literature Fiction Another short story from a favourite author A mystery and second chance romance Couldn t stop reading and read it in one sitting Was really happy with the ending cause poor Casper really deserved a HEA Mystery Thrillers Gay Lesbian Literature Fiction 4. Lemon drop kid racehorse 5What a gem WHAT A GEM I think I say this every time I write a review for any of Lanyon s titles but she s truly one of a kind in the mystery genre I ve loved every single one of her mysteries since I first discovered her Adrien English series and I can honestly say I ll probably love her writing till the day my eyes stop working and even then there s still audiobooks right She s brilliant her mysteries are brilliant her characters are messy AND brilliant and her romances are just chef s kiss brilliantly done The Lemon Drop Kid is a short gripping mystery with a dash of second chance romance a really complicated really messy one at that and a whole lot of betrayal forgiveness vibes going on that really made me want to simultaneously jump out of the nearest window and jump INTO the book to strangle a certain cop and wrap up Caz in blankets for the horrific hand he s been dealt and yeah I was obsessed I would have totally loved it if the romance has been developed a smidge but Josh isn t that kind of writer the mystery and the MC usually horrifically unlucky amateur sleuth ish snarky messes a light breeze away from a nervous breakdown MY kind of protagonist heart eyes are at the front and centre of her books and I wouldn t want it any other way. The lemon drop kid 1951 Anyway I loved the mystery to bits It s gripping and unfair and dark and brillant and I loved Casper to absolute bits He s been through a whole lot of pain and trauma but he still manages to find it in himself to be forgiving and good and just absolutely wonderful Raleigh on the other hand is the quintessential Lanyon detective love interest who has a lot to make up for with a lot of groveling and a lot of sweet sweet declarations will I ever tire of this kind of pairing and love interest I think not it scratches my romance brain juuuust right and again I even managed to love him by the end Plus it s set in a small town it s Christmas and there are dogs what could I wish for I loved the writing so damn much and I loved that this novel despite its Christmas setting and the cute cover and title was really quite angsty and tough It gave the story despite it being quite short a hefty complex atmosphere it gave the characters and their relationship substance and it made it seem longer that it actually was I was completely absorbed Again I loved it.

Short and quick read that gripped me hard from the beginning. Lemon drop kid broodmare sire I didn t care for the mystery line as much as for the drama between the main characters but hey I m a romance reader and the cover is such an eye catcher Back to drama Caspar is released from prison after spending there almost a year for the crime he hasn t committed The man who investigated the said crime was his boyfriend The sense of betrayal the anguish the pining is sooo palpable here and I just ate it up The best part is the grovelling loved it I almost wish that it was a full novel instead of a novella Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the eARC Mystery Thrillers Gay Lesbian Literature Fiction Just a short little story about forgiveness I gave this 4 stars because the story is not very developed and neither is the mystery but I had low expectations and I had fun reading it and that s all that matters to me Mystery Thrillers Gay Lesbian Literature Fiction A complimentary copy was provided in exchange for an honest review. The lemon drop kid 1951 Boy was this interesting I was confused in the beginning because I didn t realize it was the prologue before the bad stuff went down Then when the after came it took me a second to catch up and then I was hooked I read JL s note at the end about what inspired this writing and that was kind of cool That it was sparked by a discussion about what could someone do that could be almost unforgiveable In this case Casper was essentially sent to jail by the man he loved a man who thought he had killed another and then when the truth comes out that Casper is innocent the question is can Casper forgive him I don t know that s a tough one Raleigh thought Casper had killed someone he believed it thought Casper capable of murder Yes there was extenuating circumstances that helped Raleigh come to that conclusion. Lemon drop kid broodmare sire One the one hand Raleigh didn t let his feelings get in the way of a homicide investigation which is good Murder is not okay and if Casper had been guilty then he wasn t the man Raleigh thought he was On the other hand they had known each other for years years And Raleigh thought him guilty My reading of the story says that they didn t talk that Raleigh didn t even ask Casper if he was guilty He just followed the evidence. Lemon drop kid bob hope The story picks up the day of or was it 1 day after he is released from jail prison no idea which and he is mad he is traumatized he is feeling all the emotions Most especially hatred and bitterness towards Raleigh Who can blame him I was on a roller coaster of emotions because for once I really didn t know what was going to happen with these two It really could have ended on a sort of cliffhanger where they parted as repaired friends and that was all Which frankly is what I think really could have been the best option. The lemon drop kid 1934 I did enjoy this It s amazing how many times I am surprised by the uniqueness of JLs writings I do indeed recommend this There is a murder plot afoot so it s definitely not boring. The lemon drop kid cast 4 stars Only because there wasn t a super satisfactory answer to why the people were killed It involves embezzlement of company funds 20 million But why What happened to the money How could so much go missing It s a small company How was the killer going to put it back as they claimed they were trying to do There are several unanswered questions Mystery Thrillers Gay Lesbian Literature Fiction A short 154 page novella about the adorable hamlet of Little Copenhagen Wisconsin and a budding love story between Casper the also adorable heir to the town s main industry Bredahl Cookies and Cakes and Raleigh Jackson a hunky third generation cop and son to the current Chief of Police It s all systems go for a sweet story until it isn t When we next see Casper and Raleigh Casper is a bitter disillusioned man just released from county jail and fully exonerated after 11 months awaiting his trial for murder and Raleigh now Detective Jackson is the man who put him there Lanyon doesn t spare the angst as Casper is rightly embittered at both how he is viewed by the people he grew up among and the man he loved with all his heart For me some elements of the story definitely did not work I wasn t ready for Casper to forgive Raleigh so completely and I figured out who the murderer was fairly quickly But overall an enjoyable read Mystery Thrillers Gay Lesbian Literature Fiction Casper spent 11 months in county jail after being charged of murdering his boss He is now exonerated after his own sister committed suicide after supposedly confessed about the murder The worst thing is that his boyfriend at the time of the event Officer Raleigh Jackson was the one responsible for putting him behind bars The fact that Raleigh thought that Casper was able to kill someone is the fact that Casper can t forgive and forget Or can he Boy this book makes me think and ponder and that is something not happening often Sometimes complicated situations and feelings work better than the straight forward romantic ones In this case as written by Lanyon in the Author s Note section the main question is what injury could one character do to the other that would make it almost impossible to forgive I mean should Casper forgive what Raleigh did Why he can even think of doing so Why can he still feel that he loves Raleigh But human feelings and emotions are not rational at times aren t they But are we as readers should also support Casper forgiving Raleigh Or should we think of him as doormat character I loved that this book made me feel think And in the end Casper s argument also felt right Raleigh should spent the rest of his life making Casper happy as part of his atonement That s only fair And that s what my 4 stars rating stands for.
