So-so entry from Andrews, who is threatening to become formulaic with her tales of spunky heroines whose careers are threatened by disaster but who pull through with pluck and luck. This time, the story features rehabbing and flipping a century-old beach house for a "reality" TV show, and is spiced up by the possibility that the property is tied to a 17-year-old mystery.
Mary Kay Andrews has found a successful formula, and with a few minute changes, this book follows it. Our heroine is a widow, her mom is not around, this time she barely speaks to her dad. There is a house being renovated, this time for a reality show. A decades old murder does liven the story up some. If you enjoy Andrew's books, you will enjoy this one. I'm wondering when she will give us a book of house renovating tips, she seems to know a lot about that.
Thoroughly enjoyed this. A good summer read (any time of year!). A mix of romance, murder mystery, past secrets, and a reality home flipping show set in Savannah. Enjoyed it beginning to end!
