Mystery/own
No murder this time but a theft. Molly brings something to be valued and omg she is rich! But things happen and we have a mystery to solve.
I liked that we finally got her gran's backstory, but at the same time it took away so much from Molly so I did not enjoy it as much then.
Molly and the gang are fun, but yes this is a lot about her gran's history. I still enjoyed the book. This series is a fun and fastread
Molly Gray’s life is about to change in ways she could never have imagined. As the esteemed Head Maid and recently promoted Special Events Manager of the Regency Grand Hotel, good things are just around the corner, including her marriage to her beloved fiancé, Juan Manuel, only two months away.
But Molly’s entire existence is upended when a film crew descends upon the hotel to shoot the hit reality TV show Hidden Treasures, starring popular art appraisers Brown and Beagle. On a whim, Molly brings in a shoebox containing a few of her gran’s old things for appraisal, and much to everyone's surprise, one item turns out to be a rare and priceless treasure. Instantly, Molly is both a multi-millionaire and a media sensation—the world’s rags-to-riches darling—until the priceless piece vanishes from the hotel in the boldest, brashest antiquities heist in recent memory.
The key to the mystery lies in the past, in a long-forgotten diary written by Molly’s gran. For the first time ever, Molly learns about Gran’s true-to-life fairytale, a young girl to the manor born, the only child of a wealthy magnate. But when Gran falls head over heels in love with a young man her parents deem below her station, her life is thrown into turmoil. As fate would have it, the greatest love of Gran’s life is someone Molly knows quite well….
Together with her friends, Molly combs the past and the present to catch the thief before looming threats against her become real.
I really enjoy this series, too. Though I do think the first book is still the best of the bunch.

ReplyDeleteBut I do believe this was the end
DeleteDouble-perspective stories with different timelines can be hit or miss. Usually, I'm not a huge fan of them.
