Hope it Becomes a Big Series!

This is a really fast read and has a very hooking story line. But there just seems to be an un-even ratio from Shelby's life, to the Little River fires. Valerie might want to work on that a bit if it's a series. Other than that, a great read.

THANK YOU VALERIE!!!

I read this book in my school as a project. And wow! This book is amazing. I think Valerie did a great job on this book! I hope that she'll issue another "Shelby Belgarden Mystery" . . . soon!

Loved it!

I read Out of the Ashes in a single night. I couldn't put it down once I started it. Now I want more Shelby Belgard mysteries. Valerie, do you have any more?
