A review by peggyemi
The Whispered Word by Ellery Adams

4.0

I loved the first book in the series so when I was offered the chance to read and review an ARC of the second book I didn't hesitate. This one was just as good as the first. Like wrapping yourself in a warm blanket, this book invited you to get comfortable and stay awhile. I was engaged for the first two pages. Ms. Adams has created and town and characters that are warm and welcoming. Miracle Springs is a quaint setting where people come to get a second chance. These four women are expertly written and come across the page as well defined, warm, caring, flawed, struggling, hesitant, cautious but willing to create a new life and new friends even if that comes with some pain but ultimately human. The mystery takes you on a journey through the entire story and provides enough clues along the way with some twists and turns to throw the reader off track. I couldn't put this book down and just wanted to extend my time in Miracle Springs with the Secret, Book & Scone Society. I will definitely be back for a return trip when book three comes out. I am hoping that this series will be around for a while.

I voluntarily read a digital ARC provided to me by the publisher through Netgalley.
