Love, Honor, Betray by Mary Monroe
5.0

It’s been such a thrill reading this series. All 3 books in the Lexington, Alabama series were equally entertaining and laugh out loud funny. I’m going to miss these characters they were the most hilarious church-going folks I’ve ever come across.

The novel takes us back to Lexington, Alabama with Jessie and Hubert Wiggins after they’ve committed murdered and have done their best to keep their secret hidden. With so many mysterious murders happening around town nobody would have a clue they’d done anything wrong. Attempting to live a normal life like before both Hubert and Jessie continued with their deception and unfaithful ways. But soon enough things begin to unravel and the truth finally comes to light. The town’s serial killer will be exposed and Jessie and Hubert will finally make peace with their sinful ways.

This was a really great series from start to finish. All of the characters and situations were authentic and believable. I think the author ended the series perfectly leaving us with no unanswered questions. When it came to the murders I had assumptions about who was behind it so once it was revealed I wasn’t so shocked but still assumed to know who it was.

I feel this book was probably the messiest of the three and I enjoyed every minute. Amos and Jessie’s situationship was hilarious she went seeking pleasure and turned into a sugar mama. Hubert spending the night under that bed naked took me out too. I could really go on and on about this one it was actually my favorite of the three.

Overall, the character development was great, the authors writing style is amazing and very engaging. Same with the other books there were many unexpected twists and turns. The ending was slightly predictable but I’m happy to know Jessie and Hubert will have a happily ever after. If you haven’t read this series take this as your sign to dive in.
