The
Homewreckers by Mary Kay Andrews
I have not read
this author in a while and thought I'd give it a try. Expected a romance comedy
but was surprised with twists and turns and mysteries.
Story starts
out with Hattie and her foreman Cass finding out just how bad the plumbing was
on reno they are doing with their own money.
It's worse than
what they expected as she picked it up in a foreclosure. Mo is on the scene
also and overheard them talking at the breakfast diner. He is able to talk to
Cass and Hattie and they are ready and he has an inkling that the redo is in
Hattie's blood, she can smell, touch and hear things just walking through the
old houses.
He wants to
make the town better with the redo, by employing a lot of people for months.
Great story
line and learn so much from just reading about the jobs that are necessary...
So many rules,
restrictions being in the historic section and some things do go right...
Super learned
so much about restoring walls and signs to watch out for and what to expect if
things are worse, or not.
Besides the romance
blooming in front of the TV and in media magazines there are mysterious things
going on: old wallet of a teacher who had vanished.
Things get downright
scary... So many are looking out for Hattie and she doesn't realize he's NOT
that into her...
Girls remember
her, house was arson and Mo is there to protect the property. So many obstacles
against getting this home renovated in time...
Never would’ve
guessed who had killed the woman and all the turmoil with the restoration. very
cool ending.
Received this
review copy from publicist at St. Martin's Press via NetGalley
and this is my honest opinion.
