As Good As Dead (Cherokee Pointe Trilogy)

Loved this book. It kept me interested all the way through. By the time Jacob and Reve got together, you feel like "it's about time".

Loved it! The suspense was great - I usually can figure out the killer mid way through the book, not this time. I was guessing all the way to the very end. Loved the continuation of the characters - Dallas & Genny, Caleb & Jazzie and Jacob & Reve. Jacob & Reve fought their attraction to the very end, but when the finally do unite, it's amazing!

As Good As Dead by Beverly Barton is a gripping book in the Cherokee Pointe Series. Reve Sorrell grew up a daughter of privilege. She is not so sure she wants to be related to Jazzy Talbot, her look alike. Jazzy is the polar opposite of Reve. But Reve is drawn to this sleepy little town and wants some answers. Sheriff Jacob Butler has his hands bull with a possible serial killer on the loose. At first meeting Reve with her high class ways really rubs him the wrong way...Or does she? The sparks between Jacob and Reve are high voltage. Jacob realizes whoever is killing red headed women has their sights on Jazzy and Reve. Jacob sets out to protect Reve from the growing danger. But she poses a bigger threat to his heart. The suspense is riveting, you can feel the evil lurking. Reve and Jacob start out as less then friendly but they have a passion and a connection that is amazing. I love Beverly Barton books, I think this is the best one yet.

The conclusion to the Cherokee Point stories has finally arrived and Barton did not disappoint. The story remained with me until the end, especially once the secrets and the killers are revealed. It is great to see Jazzy, Genny, and Jacob find happiness and their respective loves. Barton continues to write great suspense in the likes of Sandra Brown, Linda Howard, and Karen Robards. I say that's pretty good company.

This is the third and last in the series about Cherokee Pointe, Tennessee. It is the best although the other two (THE FIFTH VICTIM & THE LAST TO DIE) are excellent this one is superb. Reve is the twin sister of Jazzy. They take DNA tests and then confront Jazzy's Aunt Sally. Reve was found in a dumpster and adopted by the Sorrell's. It turns out Jazzy was abandoned in a stump in the woods. Sally found her and raised her. From here to much information ruins the book. I will say the romances are wonderful and let us know you are never to old to find love. Not only does Jacob and Dallas, the sheriff and chief of police, have to try to protect the twins from whoever tried to kill them 30 years ago. There is a serial killer killing redheads, Reve and Jazzy are both redheads. The story is wonderful full of twists and turns. I could not put it down. And the climax was great not to mention the total surprises at the end of the book. Don't miss this one.
