I thought this book was pretty funny and entertaining at parts, especially the meddling aunt and Albert’s reaction, as well as the comic relief from Alice’s boys. The book was slow going at first but picked up momentum towards the latter half.

The best in the series yet!

Susan and Justin's wedding is close. Millie, hot-headed as she is, plans to unofficially open their B&B just a bit sooner (read: 2 years sooner), so she invites a few guests to stay with them in hopes Al would be OK and everything will process smoothly.
Wrong assumption.

The town prepares to celebrate its 150th anniversary - but there are no money. Some funding is possibly available - and the potential conflicts is in brewing for the position of a fund manager, mainly as Lulu Thacker steps up to the challenge.

Relationships are tested, obstacles are to overcome and the prejudices are to be explored in this hilarious, witty novel. I have laughed like crazy, I nodded my head in considerations and I have even cringed as the faulties in the characters hitted close to home a few times. Humans are petty here - and also loving, warm and full of surprises. This is a whole food for thought hidden here in the guise of a parsnip cake (which I need to try!).
Great read which I have thoroughly enjoyed.
