Summary
Summer begins with Mary Kay Andrews, in this delightful summer read about flipping houses, and finding true love.”Andrews (The Newcomer) sparkles in this fast-paced tale. Andrews’s fans will eat this up.” —Publishers Weekly”A fun story with twists and turns that will appeal to romantics and cold-case fans alike.” —Kirkus Hattie Kavanaugh went to work restoring homes for Kavanaugh & Son Restorations at eighteen, married the boss’s son at twenty, and became a widow at twenty-five. Now, she’s passionate about her work, but that’s the only passion in her life. “Never love something that can’t love you back,” is advice her father-in-law gives her, but Hattie doesn’t follow it and falls head-over-heels for a money pit of a house. She’s determined to make it work, but disaster after disaster occurs, and Hattie’s dream might cost Kavanaugh & Son their livelihood. Hattie needs money, and fast. When a slick Hollywood producer shows up in her hometown of Savannah, Georgia, she gets a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: star in a beach house renovation reality show called The Homewreckers, cast against a male lead who may be a love interest, or may be the ultimate antagonist. Soon, there’s more at stake than bad pipes and dry rot: during the demolition, evidence comes to light that points to the mysterious disappearance of a young wife and mother years before.With a burned out detective investigating the case, an arsonist on the loose, two men playing with her emotions, and layers upon layers of vintage wallpaper causing havoc, it’s a question of who will flip, who will flop, and if Hattie will ever get her happily-ever-after.
Mary kay Andrews is one of my go to authors to start my summer reading. I also look forward to her new book at the start of summer. Easy read, kept me engaged and of course I read it in 3 days. It’s like binge watching a series on Netflix, now I am finished and sad I have to wait until next season for another new book…. thank you Mary Kay for another great beach read! Until we meet again in 2023 ❤️
As always, Mary Kay Andrew’s did not disappoint. This novel has it all: romance, mystery, home renovation, reality TV, and set in one of the most unique places in the country-Savannah. I wish for a sequel because I don’t want to leave these characters!
Very entertaining, filled with what Mary Kay Andrews does best: storytelling that is entertaining, mysterious, funny, human, suspenseful, and romantic.
