Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Wonderful Summer reading
Review: Harris can tell a story and she gets better with each book. The Captain's Fund was the first and reads very well. I liked the fast pace and her style kept you reading on. She created several characters that are so real i enjoyed following them through each of the other three books too. If you like romance mysteries, get this one.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Fun and Entertaining
Review: I like books I can bring to the beach. Harris wrote The Captain's Fund in a light and entertaining style. I found it to have enough detail to get the story across, but not make it boring. I enjoyed the people Harris created. She constructed a believable crime and police investigation.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good mystery
Review: Well, I'm a guy, so the biggest mistake I think Ms. Harris makes is in allowing her novel to be billed as a Romance Mystery. A guy (myself included) reads that, and figures "chick book" right away. I found this not to be the case.

It takes only a short time for this book to grab hold of the reader, and by the time I was about half-way through, it became one of those books that I had to finish before I could get on with the rest of my life. The chapters are short enough to keep the book moving, and be concise, but not so short as to become confusing and annoying (yes, I'm talking about Tom Clancy here).

I recommend the book to anyone wanting a good easy-to-read mystery, with believable, likable characters, but not heavy on the "romance". Good work, Ms. Harris--I look forward to reading another.

Summary: Tropical Delight
Review: I just returned from a week of vacation and spent the entire time reading. After finishing The Captain's Fund, I bought the three other books by Harris. She has an easy style that makes it wonderful beach reading. Harris writes abouts the same characters - you really get to know them. Her books contain a good mixture of romance and none stop police work.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Didn't Stop Once
Review: Harris can really mix action and romance in a story. The Captain's Fund captures you from the first chapter and doesn't stop until you finish the last page. I was looking for a new author to read this summer annd found a great one in Harris.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Wonderful Book series
Review: If you like authors who write about the same characters, you'll enjoy Harris. Her four books detail the same main people. Her style is clean and fast paced, which makes her stories great to read.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fantastic Beach Read
Review: I enjoy my summers and I always look for books to enjoy while I relax at the beach. Harris has four great beach reads. Her stories are quick paced and wonderful to read. She kept the same characters in each of her four books - what a plus!! I especially like her work because it's set in Hyannis.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Great Addition to the paperbacks
Review: I liked the fast pace at which Harris created the story - I had to finish the book the same day I started it. Her characters are fun and interesting. She gives you enough detail about the story but doesn't bog you down in it.
