✨ 4th book - can be standalone
✨ I’m a big fan of willow rose writing, this is a 4th book of the Detective Billie Ann Wilde Book - even though this book can be read as a standalone. But I do recommend to read the first book to understand more better as it contains some flashbacks.
✨‼️ some chapters can be triggering with a child loss so warning .
✨little madison supposed to come home but never made it. To be honest, this hits me home. For someone with a kid always going in the bus it’s an eye opening.
The hurt of the parents can be felt on each chapter.
Fast paced so it’s light for a mystery.
Definitely worth the read with the twisted ending.
Not too strong but atleast it ended with a good plot.
✨ Thankyou @bookouture for the opportunity to read this book for a honest review .

Detective Billie Ann Wilde and her team focus on finding a missing girl who did not get off the school bus as expected. As each lead is analyzed another girl is reported missing, then a third. Detective Wilde is pulled in multiple directions with the cases all the while her home life is in shambles. Plenty of suspense, dead ends, and misdirection to keep you reading to the twisted end.

Willow Rose delivers a captivating and suspenseful thriller in "Find My Girl". The story's fast-paced narrative and short chapters keep the tension high, making it nearly impossible to put the book down. The characters are richly developed, and their emotional depth adds a layer of authenticity to the unfolding mystery. The twists and turns are expertly crafted, keeping readers guessing until the end. Rose's vivid descriptions create an immersive atmosphere, perfectly complementing the suspenseful tone. Fans of psychological thrillers will find *Find My Girl* to be an unforgettable and deeply satisfying read.

Oh. My. God! What a brilliant read!
This is the fourth book in this incredible series that features Detective Billie Ann Wilde, but if you haven’t read books 1-3, this one would work well as a standalone, as there is less of Billie’s turbulent personal life in this book, an element that has been a bigger factor in the first three books.
With a young girl found dead and another one reported missing, Billie discovers a link to a local church. With her own parents being devoted churchgoers, Billie is already very aware of how toxic and controlling organised religion is, but this doesn’t do much to ease the shock she feels when she discovers the horrifying truth.
This is a very clever, twisty and multi-faceted plot that had me hooked from the very start, in a series that just keeps getting better!
5 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, Willow Rose and Bookouture, for an ARC in return for an honest review.

First one girl goes missing, then another...
Billie Ann has received devastating news from the judge - she has lost custody of her children. While she is trying to come to terms with this, she gets called in to her job as a detective to try to locate a missing girl. There aren't many clues, but Billie Ann and her team are doggedly tracking down whatever they can. It's easy to focus in on the stepfather. He's not exactly the guy who he tried to project.
And then there is a religious cult, lead by a charismatic woman. What role, if any does she have with the missing girls?
This is a real thriller that keeps you reading and guessing until the end. Not everything is as it seems. Billie Ann is tenacious and won't give up until she brings her investigation to the best possible closure.

Detective Billi Ann Wilde is back even after suffering an emotional blow with her ex husband Tom gaining full custody of the children. Chief Harold calls her in to help find a missing girl, Madison Harris, after she hadn't been seen getting on the school bus. Later, Madison is found in the creek. Billie makes an oath to hunt down the culprit. Shortly afterwards, Billie and her team, Scott and Tom, are told about a second girl has gone missing. The story is told over different timelines by different people. The second girl has a mark on her that Billie's Mother recognises from her church, which is run by Pastor Amelia Hawthorne. Why are the children going missing? How are they connected to the church? It's a fast paced, action packed and a heart stopping plot full of twists and turns leading to a dramatic ending.

Find My Girl is the fourth book in the Detective Billie Ann Wilde series and it will captivate you from the first page. This book was a page turner from the very beginning and it takes readers into a world of secrets, suspense, missing children and so much more. The author wrote this so well and I can not wait for the next book in the series. I loved all of the twists and turns in the book. The characters in this were amazing and I liked Billie Ann a lot. I like this series a lot and recommend you read the other books in it. Overall, this book is one I loved and would recommend to any reader especially to those of you who love mysteries or thrillers. Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley for this amazing read in exchange of my honest review of Find My Girl by Willow Rose.

Willow rose has done it again. She has sucked me in and never disappoints. Read this book now! It’s one that you might have to call out of work to finish so be prepared:)

Find My Girl has so many twists and turns……it will have you guessing up to the very end.
Billie Ann and her team start out investigating a murder and end up investigating a cult church.
I am not quite sure where the author is taking us in Billie Ann’s relationships and family life. It seems like one step forward and then two steps back.
A gripping and face paced crime thriller.
Thank you NetGalley, Bookouture and the author for the opportunity to read this book for my honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.

This is a great crime thriller.
Billie Ann has just moved into a new apartment as she has been forced to leave her children with her ex husband.
She’s feeling alone and scared of what lies ahead but soon has a missing girl to search for.
Billie Ann and the team are shocked when the girl is found dead in the water and are determined to find her killer.
Not long after this, another girl is missing and Billie Ann hopes they find her before it’s too late.
During the investigation she comes into contact with the church that her parents are involved with and it soon comes to light that it’s leader is hiding a great deal from them.
This is a gripping crime thriller that I really enjoyed.
Thanks to Bookouture for the opportunity to read this book.

Detective Billie Ann Wilde Book 4
Ten year old Madiston Harris has been found dead in the Marshlands. Her step-father is the prime suspect. Then another girl, Kayla, goes missing while John is still at the police station. Detective Billie Ann is on the case. When Kayla's body is discovered, Billie Ann notices a strange star shape branded on her skin. Could this be a clue to who is behind the girls murders?
This story is told from multiple points of view. Due to the murders being children, it can be a bit emotional. It also contains: mass suicide, cults, child pornography, and kidnapping. The characters are complex. There were some shocking scenes. We get flashbacks to the past. I couldn't even guess who the killer was. I'm really enjoying this series.

Find My Girl by Willow Rose is a gripping and emotional thriller that plunges readers into a dark world of secrets, suspense, and heartbreak. The fourth installment in the Detective Billie Ann Wilde series, this book raises the stakes with its chilling portrayal of missing children, hidden dangers, and the unyielding pursuit of justice.
The story begins with a devastating discovery: Madison Harris, a ten-year-old girl, is found dead in the marshlands. Her stepfather, John, becomes the prime suspect when damning evidence is uncovered, leading to his arrest. However, the case takes a shocking turn when another girl, Kayla, goes missing while John remains behind bars. As Billie Ann delves deeper into the investigation, she uncovers disturbing connections to a secretive church, its enigmatic symbol, and its possible ties to the disappearances.
Willow Rose masterfully weaves a complex narrative with multiple points of view, immersing readers in the thoughts and fears of her characters. Billie Ann’s character is a standout—resilient, compassionate, and determined despite the personal and professional challenges she faces. Her vulnerability adds depth to her relentless pursuit of justice, making her a relatable and inspiring protagonist.
The pacing is relentless, with short chapters and unexpected twists that keep readers on edge. The exploration of mature themes, including cult involvement and family conflict, adds a layer of emotional intensity to the story. Rose also continues to develop Billie Ann’s personal life, shedding light on her struggles and relationships, which makes the stakes feel even more personal.
While some twists might feel familiar to seasoned thriller readers, the fast-paced narrative and emotional resonance make this a standout addition to the series. Fans of Lisa Regan and Melinda Leigh will find much to enjoy in this atmospheric and suspenseful read.
Trigger warnings: kidnapping, child abuse, cult activity, and grief.
Thank you to Willow Rose, Bookouture, and NetGalley for the ARC. Find My Girl is an unforgettable read, perfect for fans of tightly plotted mysteries with heart. Don’t miss it when it releases!

For readers of this series, I'm sure that Find My Girl was a great continuation. This was the first book that I've read in the series (didn't realize it was book 4 although the title includes that information). I'll go back and read the first three books and come back to change this review as needed.

I enjoyed the first three books in this series but this one was not on the same level. Too much of the cult which took away from the rest of the story. There were twists and turns which kept me guessing. I would definitely read the next book though. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the chance to review it.

A young girl goes missing and while her mother is heartbroken, her stepfather barely shows any emotion. He is arrested for the crime, but while he is still in jail, another young girl goes missing. Detective Billie Ann Wilde must discover whether the crimes are related, and whether or not a religious group nearby has any involvement.
Parts of this book were engaging, but I couldn't connect with the detective nor any of the other characters. The actions of the religious community seemed forced to fit the plot.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. All opinions are my own.

This is my fourth Willow Rose novel, and I always look forward to each new release in this captivating series.
The story begins with the heartbreaking discovery of Madison’s lifeless body in the marshlands after she was expected home from school. Her mother is devastated, while her stepfather, John, remains unshaken—especially as evidence of Madison’s blood is found in his car, pointing to him as the likely suspect.
With John in custody, Detective Billie Ann believes she’s taken a dangerous man off the streets. But soon after, a terrifying new case lands in her lap: Kayla, a ten-year-old girl, goes missing on her way home from school. Since John is behind bars, it couldn’t be him, leaving Billie Ann at a dead end. When Kayla’s body is discovered, Billie Ann notices a strange star-shaped brand on her skin—a symbol that Madison’s mother recognizes as the emblem of her former church. Could the answers to both cases be hidden within the walls of this secretive community? As another child disappears, Billie Ann knows she must uncover the truth before more innocent lives are lost.
The novel unfolds through multiple points of view, which some readers may find challenging, but Willow Rose’s expert storytelling keeps each perspective essential to the complex plot.
"Find My Girl" was an engaging, fast-paced read with short chapters that kept me turning pages. Most of the characters were well-developed and likable, with Billie Ann’s resilience standing out as especially admirable. I also appreciated the deeper dive into Billie Ann’s family background, which added depth to her character.
The story is emotional, suspenseful, and, compared to the earlier books, delves into more mature themes.
A big thank you to Willow Rose, Bookouture, and NetGalley for an advance reader copy in exchange for an honest review. Don’t miss "Find My Girl" when it’s released on December 3, 2024.
Trigger warnings: kidnapping, cult involvement, divorce, child pornography, poisoning, mass suicide.

Willow Rose, you have done it again. This book packed such a punch! There were so many twists and turns. I couldn't put it down and devoured it all in one night. Billie Ann Wilde is my favorite and I look forward to the next installment!
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this arc in exchange for an honest review!
