Must-read book
+ Great book!
I thought this was an excellent book. It combined romance, mystery, and humor to keep me interested page after page. Plus, I learned a few things about Prohibition and the Jazz Age. I would definately recommend this book, along with the others in the 'Wild Rose Inn' series.
