This is not my favorite Queen Betsy book, but I still loved it. It was a nice, quick read and still had her quick witt and laugh out loud one liners. I just felt it was a little rushed in some parts. Still overall very pleased and as always I am a huge fan. Long live Queen Betsy and Mary Janice!
Tina, Just wanted to mention, you have the wrong author matched up with Two for the Dough.

I have acces to my books boxes but I can't completely unpack them.
