Loved it of course MKA is my go to summer read author! Nothing like a grand old hotel, its characters, and a great mystery to boot.
I really enjoyed this novella. It was the perfect Christmas story. A quick read with a happy ending I would highly recommend it as a holiday treat or any other time of year! This made me want to read more of Mary Kay Andrews books. I know this would make a perfect Hallmark Christmas movie!
