Kim | 4 comments GENRE: Mystery, Adult - Series, takes place in New York, not NYC, at a hotel. Late 20s woman inherits a crumbling family home (maybe victorian style) from mother, her wayward sister inherits money (and maybe steals sisters boyfriend?). Main character formerly worked in NYC, now works in a local hotel as deputy general manager (maybe), has close relationship with the older gentleman who owns the hotel (not romantic). Has tenants in her home, a gay (male) couple that owns a wine shop in town.
Several books in the series, murders/crimes ensue at the hotel.
Probably read these books somewhere between 2006-2010?

Kim ~~
You can "bump" your thread every month or so. This pushes your thread back to the top of the folder instead of languishing here on page 101 from two months ago where fewer eyes will see it. Get back in the game! Bump!
You can do this by typing a new comment at the end of the thread, or even by typing the word "bump."
Good luck!

BUMP - anyone have any thoughts? I know I read the first few books in the series... :)
Main character begins to think she may have a familial relationship to the older gentleman who owns the hotel she works at.

Mai | 1280 comments Maybe the Manor House Mystery Series by Julie Hyzy?
Book 1 is Grace Under Pressure. It was published in 2010.

Found searching mystery novel "series" "new york" "hotel" "wine shop" "her sister". From the reviews it sounds just like your book!

Kim | 4 comments Oh my goodness, Mai, yes! That is it. Thank you so much! I swear I used very similar search terms, but yours must have had a little extra magic to it. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I hope any mysteries you have out there get solved.
