Murder Makes a Vlog

No Place Too Far is actually the first of Kay Bratt's books that I've read. Apparently the story starts with True to Me, so if you're new to Ms. Bratt's work, start with that one, but I was able to follow the story well enough without having read True to Me.

Quinn and Maggie are best friends. They're both living on the Hawaiian island of Maui, where Quinn is starting her own business independent of her birth family, and Maggie is trying to build a life for herself and her son Charlie after a horrible experience with a stalker.

Maggie has just landed a job as a vet tech when weird things start happening. She learns that her stalker is no longer incarcerated, and he knows where she is. She will do whatever she must to protect Charlie and herself. She's not running this time.

Part of the time, I really wanted to smack Maggie. She struggles with accepting help, even when she really should. She thinks she can do everything on her own, and she doesn't want to drag her brothers or Quinn or anyone into the situation when her stalker reappears. Thankfully, her friends are persistent. From Juniper, her blue-haired, nose-ring-wearing new co-worker and friend, to Woodrow, the most awesome service dog ever, Maggie has support and help fighting this battle.

We also see Quinn dealing with a difficult situation. A sleazy reporter has revealed her true identity, and she thinks she's going to have to leave to protect her family. Is there any other solution, or will she have to leave the life she's been working to build?

This was a really enjoyable read. I had a hard time putting it down, and now I've got to go back and read True to Me. I think I'll be adding Ms. Bratt to my “read everything she writes” list!
