Review “Remember, we have to look at the venue for the Kentucky Derby party in the morning. We need to appear at the top of our game. You are the other B in B& B Catering. Make me proud.”
Monica Baker is in a pinch again. She and Brenda have Signed on to do a Kentucky Derby themed dinner for twenty...but...little do they know exactly what it entails. Brenda’s new “beau”, Bob, is helping by doing background checks, Brenda’s planning the menu. However, Monica thinks something’s off, and can’t figure out what’s going on, she calls it her “need to analyze”. Everywhere she turns, she runs into things that force alarms to go off. And, it’s forcing her heart and her head to stop waging war and work together to help Tristan Dumont and his horse Tache, not to mention the reputation of B&B Catering, on the up and up.
Leave it to Author Maria Grazia Swan to have us looking all over the place to find out the solution to yet another mystery. It’s so nice to sit and chat and figure out what’s going on. With Maria, all bets are off. I love her characters no matter who might be served up as long as you save room for Brenda’s pie. Highly recommended 5/5
