This was just okay. There was more of a romance element in this one, but it's turning into a love triangle, which I don't particularly like. The mystery was good, one that kept me guessing.

I liked the cozy mystery in this book and the characters that were involved as well. There were some that I could relate to and others that I despised, which was unexpected but a nice surprise. What I am not thrilled with is the apparent introduction of a possible romance element. Does Maggie like this guy? What about that guy? Or maybe it is that other guy?? Sooooo not for me. Hopefully Maggie figures out her fickle feelings in the next story.
