Histoire
Felicia, a single mother and lawyer by day, volunteers at a local crisis center to give back to her tightknit community in a small Wisconsin town. One night, she answers a horrifying call: through tears, a frantic teenage girl tells her that she was a victim of sexual assault at a local house party. Felicia is shocked, and breaking protocol, she begins communicating with the girl on her own, determined to keep her safe and hold her assailants accountable. But as she gets closer and closer to the truth, she can’t shake the feeling that she and the girl are connected by more than the phone call.

Histoire
Molly Gray has always loved the holidays. When Molly was a child, her gran went to great lengths to make the season merry and bright, full of cherished traditions. The first few Christmases without Gran were hard on Molly, but this year, her beloved boyfriend and fellow festive spirit, Juan Manuel, is intent on making the season Molly’s most joyful yet. But when a Secret Santa gift exchange at the Regency Grand Hotel raises questions about who Molly can and cannot trust, she dives headfirst into solving her most consequential—and personal—mystery yet.

All romance, no mystery.
This latest release in the Maid series released in October 2024 and I figured December was the perfect time to embrace this Christmas themed book. I had the pleasure of seeing this author at an event in December which had me excited to dive in. She was a wonderful speaker!
Molly was as endearing as ever, but this story solely focuses on her relationship with her boyfriend. I would categorize this book as a romance, not a cozy mystery, as the last two books in the series have been. Unfortunately, I am not a romance reader so I did not connect with this as much as I had expected. For readers who enjoy romance and cute stories, they will surely love this. For others like me, who expect the same sort of mystery focused plot, this will likely be a letdown.
The setting was excellent, as with all the books in the series. The hustle and bustle of the hotel during the Christmas season was palpable. The secondary characters all make an appearance and they were easy to reconnect with. Gran’s wisdoms continue to whisper in Molly’s ear which continues to be my favourite part of these books.
Overall, this was an underwhelming instalment in the Maid series due to its heavy romance focus. However, if you enjoy romance, it will likely work out much better for you!
Audio rating: 4 stars! I enjoyed listening to this. The narrator added the perfect charm to the story.

Histoire
One sunny August afternoon, the residents of Cedar Close throw their annual summer barbecue. Children play in the cherry-tree lined street, tables are laden with food, and the wine is flowing. For Laurie Mills, it’s her first time meeting the neighbours. And it’s the first time she discovers her husband, Robert, is having an affair. Cedar Close has always been a nice place to live - a quiet suburban street where everyone looks out for one another and bad things don’t happen. Until late one evening, when Robert Mills is found dead in his bedroom.

Engrossed by this from the first sentence. Audio narrator was excellent! Didn’t realize this was book 2 in a series and now I’m excited to go back and read book 1 before continuing on. Highly recommend!
