Two sworn enemies. A failing hotel. One chance to save the season...
It's the busiest season of the year, and Forest Manor Hotel is quite literally falling apart. So when Izzy and Lucas are given the same shift on the hotel's front desk, they have no choice but to put their differences aside and see it through.
The hotel won't stay afloat beyond Christmas without some sort of miracle. But when Izzy returns a guest's lost wedding ring, the reward convinces management that this might be the way to fix everything. With four rings still sitting in lost property, the race is on for Izzy and Lucas to save their beloved hotel - and their jobs.
As their bitter rivalry turns into something much more complicated, Izzy and Lucas begin to wonder if there's more at stake here than the hotel's future. Can the two of them make it through the season with their hearts intact?
This was Tsundoku Squads first group read of 2024! We all really like Beth O’Leary so we were excited for this one.
It was good, not amazing, and not her best, but I gave it 4 stars.
I didn’t like the main character Izzy, and I think a few of us felt the same. But I did like Lucas. He was my favourite in the book, along with Mr Townsend. Mr Townsend seemed like such a lush person, he was always hanging around in the background, listening to and watching the world go by. Lucas, ohh I did like Lucas. A tall, handsome Italian? Whats not to love! His family were very sweet too.
The ring thing was a big part of the story, and there were some good bit, but some that I just wasn’t bothered about. The part with the adulterer was quite funny (the situation, not the fact of someone being an adulterer), if you read it you’ll understand.
So a ⅘ from me, excited for her next book!
