Summary:
Federal Agent Lucas Beaumont has an agenda — get himself assigned to the case of the apparent serial murders at Lancaster Falls, find out who the murderer is, and then lay the ghosts that haunt his grandfather to rest. In the midst of a horrific murder investigation, the only peace he gets is from simple moments in a warm kitchen, talking to hotel owner, Josh. Attraction to the easygoing man is something he didn’t expect; in doing so, he opens himself to hurt, but at the same time, he begins to fall in love.
Josh is struggling to keep the Falls Hotel, even with every cent he has invested in its upkeep. The one thing keeping him above water is the not entirely legal work he does on the side—a steady income that not even his son knows about. When the FBI takes over his hotel for the duration of the Hell’s Gate serial killer case, Josh is faced with the real possibility that Lucas will not only discover his secret but also steal his heart.
When tragedy hits Josh and his son, and when it seems all hope is lost, can Lucas rescue them both?
HOLY HANNAH BATMAN! All that Remains and Lancaster Falls Trilogy as a whole is A-FREAKIN-MAZING!!!!! Mystery, romance, death, friendship, danger, chemistry, buried(or not so buried) secrets, camaraderie, mayhem, and plenty of heart. You'll find these and many other elements and emotions within the city limits of Lancaster Falls. All that Remains has it's own couple and their journey but as with any great trilogy the third act ties it all together.
Now as you are all well aware, there will be NO SPOILERS from me. No murder mystery should ever be spoiled because the reader has to discover and feel every hint, every surprise, every "can't put it down" high to fully appreciate the journey. Trust me, you do not want to let Lancaster Falls slip passed your reading radar.
Let's take a minute to look at our starring couple: Lucas and Josh. Lucas the FBI agent has come to Lancaster Falls on an agenda: solve a crime that will hopefully put his grandfather's mind to rest. Josh the single dad hotel owner who deals with some not-so legal computer issues to keep his head above water and to provide for his son. Their worlds collide when Lucas brings the feds to stay at the hotel while helping out with the Hell's Gate serial murder case. What could possibly go wrong(or right) there?ππ
Lucas and Josh have an instant connection, physically and more, but considering their personal agendas will that connection lead to more? Will they let it? You know my answer: read the book to find out, again I say trust me you won't regret it. I just want to add that for those who don't care for insta-love/lust/connection, the chemistry may be instant but RJ Scott tells their journey in a way that you know the insta-bit can lead to something so much more, if fate lets it that is ππ.
As for Hell's Gate, each entry plays it's part in the case but All that Remains brings it all together and I'll be honest, I'm rarely snookered when it comes to mysteries, not because I'm some great detecting genius but because I've read/watched so many mysteries in my nearly 47 years on this Earth that very few twists are really all that twisty anymore. Well, RJ Scott had me guessing right to the reveal. Every time I thought I had it figured out, I'd turn the page and suddenly I was shaking my head "well, damn! there goes that theory".
This is a series not to be missed but it is also a series that must be read in order. Sure the starring couple may be different but the mystery is ongoing. I'll miss the heroes of this trilogy, I'll even miss the mayhem but I loved the way Miss Scott brings it all together and for me, the feelings of missing it is further proof how brilliant and attention grabbing the storytelling is. I'll just repeat my above statement: HOLY HANNAH BATMAN! All that Remains and Lancaster Falls Trilogy as a whole is A-FREAKIN-MAZING!!!!!
