Review: The Hearts Choice by Tracie Peterson and Kimberley Woodhouse

Rebecca Whitman, a court reporter in Montana, wants to get to the truth of a murder. With the help of librarian Mark Andrews, Rebecca researches the case and they find surprising answers.

The story was predictable but entertaining and I liked the progression of the relationship of Mark and Rebecca.
