The temperature’s on “sizzle” again in Beaumont, South Carolina, where peach trees are in season and ripe for the picking. So is its newest entrepreneur, Annie Fortenberry, who has inherited her grandmother’s B&B (and its eccentric handyman Erdle Thorney). According to a local psychic she also inherited a spirit from its glory days as a brothel– not the kind of publicity the Peach Tree Bed & Breakfast needs if it’s hosting millionaire Max Holt’s upcoming wedding! If rumors of a naughty, prank-playing ghost aren’t stressful enough, a mysterious man has arrived with an eye on Annie and her master suite. Pretty typical Janet Evanovich and Charlotte Hughes fare, the characters are almost always stumbling over situations which cause cascade into farce, it's quite entertaining and with the light touch of the authors isn't too much (at least not for me) Annie Fortenberry has inherited her grandmother's B&B, which was a brothel at one stage of it's past. She's organising a wedding for Max Holt, when her ex-husband's body turns up, she though he had run away but it turns out he had died, actually had been killed and she's the prime suspect. Wes Bridges comes into the picture investigating the disappearance of her ex-husband. She's drawn to him, but will the relationship survive her learning the truth? It's fun, light fare, readable but not terribly deep. no reviews | add a review

There isn't much to review really. Full Bloom is pure marshmallow fluff; it's funny and entertaining, but ultimately about as deep as a summer puddle. There's a murder mystery at the base of it that is actually pretty well constructed, but it's obvious the authors' were focussing on the flirtation, the romance, and the laughs, which are of the slapstick variety. The HEA is a given and if you dislike insta-love, you're gonna hate this book.
A fun, fast read that will not tax your mental abilities even a little bit, but might entertain you if you see the appeal of Goldie Hawn. :) ( )
