It's engaging and funny
This is not the first book that I had read from the author Ms. Karen Bovee. As usual, I enjoyed reading her books. This book is engaging and funny.
I laugh out loud so many times which is my favorite from reading this cozy mystery book. I can relate to some of the characters, especially Maggie. I am not a maid but some of her work in the hotel is mostly what I do at work. This girl is an asset to the hotel and I am glad that Mrs. Pryce takes good care of this employee.
Mothers will always strive for their kids particularly a daughter in this story to have the best in life. It is unfortunate that sometimes mothers will not let their daughters decide what is best for them. Mrs. Pryce indeed plays a big role not only in owning the hotel but in the end being welcome to the community. Money is money but above all your reputation is most important than any amount of money.
