Praise for Good Sam “Meserve’s narrative has a . . . dry wit and well-conceived dialogue throughout. Kate’s relatable qualities of self-reliance tinged with vulnerability drive this gratifying mystery-romance about finding the good guys—and knowing when to recognize them.”—Publishers Weekly “In her debut novel, Meserve writes a . . . solid feel-good romance sparked with mystery.”—Kirkus Reviews “If you are a Nicholas Sparks or Richard Paul Evans fan, I’m betting you will like author Meserve’s book Good Sam. Uplifting, heart wrenching, and a two-hankie read, this story is a winner.”—Cheryl Stout, Amazon Top 1000 reviewer and Vine Voice “This story has everything from suspense to drama. And the heartfelt ending had us smiling for days.”—First for Women magazine Praise for Perfectly Good Crime “A first-rate and undaunted protagonist easily carries this brisk tale. Kate is intuitive and professional, but it’s her steadfast compassion that makes her truly remarkable.” —Kirkus Reviews “Dete Meserve delivers a novel that is simultaneously mysterious, fascinating, and inspiring.” —Buzzfeed.com “A feel-good mystery . . . an enjoyable escape.”—BookLife Prize in Fiction “In a novel saturated with unexpected twists and shocking motives, Kate Bradley follows clues—and her heart—to discover that some crimes have powerfully good intentions.” —Sunset magazine Praise for The Space Between “Chiseled prose gleefully weaves the protagonist through bombshells . . . a labyrinth of plot and character motivations makes for a thoroughly enjoyable novel.” —Kirkus Reviews “The Space Between is a fast-paced novel that combines the best elements of suspense and romance. In this story of a broken marriage, Dete Meserve uses the mysteries of the universe to keep you on the edge of your seat as she weaves a tale that winds its way through the past and present to bring about a truly satisfying conclusion. Highly recommended.” —USA Today bestselling author Bette Lee Crosby “From tragedy to triumph, Dete Meserve’s new novel took me on a roller-coaster ride I’ll not soon forget. Coupling the mysteries of the night sky with an unthinkable domestic situation, this tale is stunning and unlike any I’ve read. The Space Between is a must must must read!” —Heather Burch, bestselling author of In the Light of the Garden “As captivating and complex as the night skies that feature in The Space Between, this is a thrilling read. A precipitous shift in perceived reality causes everything past and present to be suspect. Meserve skillfully crafts all the elements of a superbly suspenseful page-turner.” —Patricia Sands, bestselling author of the Love in Provence series “Dete Meserve’s The Space Between has it all. It is a story written with a knowledge of space, realistic characters you want to root for, romance, and a mystery with a satisfying ending. I predict that after you read the book, you’ll gaze at the stars and think of them in a new way.” —Judith Keim, bestselling author of the Fat Fridays series “Woven with the stars, this is an incredible story of love, betrayal, and the infinite power of hope. Suspenseful to almost the last page; I couldn’t put it down.” —Andrea Hurst, author of Always with You “Dete Meserve’s The Space Between hits all of the sweet spots: a smart and engaging female lead, an intriguing mystery, and elements of danger and suspense sure to keep readers turning pages long past bedtime. If you’re a fan of Nicholas Sparks or Kerry Lonsdale, grab this book!” —Kes Trester, author of A Dangerous Year “With the starry heavens as a backdrop, Meserve spins a fast-paced story about astronomer Sarah Mayfield as she questions everything she believes to be true in the space between the heartache of her rocky marriage and the mystery surrounding her husband’s disappearance. This is Meserve’s best work yet, a romance wrapped in suspense that will keep readers guessing until the very end.” —Christine Nolfi, bestselling author of Sweet Lake and The Comfort of Secrets
