I wanted to read that book but I decided against it as book 6 of the series will be published later in the year. I want to read the series in order of the books. But I hope you will like it Dee.

I so enjoy this cozy mystery series. This book continues from the last one, on answering questions on the 50 year old mystery of the doubloons and the missing Vernon. But what I really enjoyed was learning more about great great great aunt Eudora. But what of the mystery light at Captain’s Seat and the scent of roses? I still think the house is haunted. So looking forward to the next book


Don't feel bad. We can't get a new task until tomorrow the earliest anyway



Awesome, will take a look.

Review: One fun fake-boyfriend trope. Grumpy Chef Storm ropes teasing snarky Hennessy into being his fake boyfriend, and the chemistry is off the wall. Loved it!

I'm working for most of the day but hopefully it'll be an easy task.

Task 5 - 23. Each teammate reads a book that has been read by one of the RRRC moderators. No pass for this task.
To qualify for this task, the selected books need to be marked as read by one of the RRRC moderators. There is no date requirement for this task, but the selected book must be marked as read and rated. Please include a link to the moderator's review or read shelf in your completion posts. To make your searching easier - Fran, Jane, Karen and I all read MM Romance, but Jane reads MM exclusively. Fran, Karen and I read both MF and MM.
