The second of the three reviews I'm posting today, if you haven't already done so please take a look at Friends For Life by Liz Murphy and keep a look out for The Little Book Of Extraordinary Cats by Anita Kelsey that I shall be posting later today.
My sincere apologies once again to Rachel of Rachel's Random Resources and authors, Liz Murphy, Becky Papworth and Anita Kelsey. Unfortunately ill health which resulted in a hospital stay has meant that I have been unable to post these blog tour reviews as agreed to.
Number one, of course, is the guests themselves. Their strange requests, habits and lasting damage to her garden, the cottage and her sanity, are a non- stop challenge.
Add in the piles of laundry, sleepless nights, scary spreadsheets, sneaky neighbours, and sex with no strings . . . and her goal seems far away.
Yet despite an endless run of dramas, and thanks to her passion for hospitality and home baking, Janet may find she is just a Lemon Drizzle cake or two away from a 5-star life.
Not the first time I've met Janet Jackson {no, not that Janet Jackson}, I had that pleasure when first joined her in Janet Jackson's Yorkshire B&B. Not that you have had to have read this book first as Janet Jackson Superhost {book two in the series} reads perfectly well as a standalone novel ... though why you'd want to when you'd be missing on not only on Janet's dreams to open the B&B but on some of the Jackson family history.
Every bit as good as the first book in the series and even better. Janet and I have now become firm friends {sigh, if only she were real} with me learning all about how she is still spending her days cooking, baking cake, cleaning, fixing things, being generally run ragged with next to no help from the other members of the family ... and that's to say nothing of her trying to obtain as many five star reviews as possible IF she is to become Janet Jackson Superhost.
A relaxing, upbeat, fun filled read with a light dusting of romance, Janet and family wonderfully exuberant characters. I feel like this series has lots of mileage in it and have high hopes of a third book.
Rebecca was the first woman to produce ‘Have I Got News For You’ and is responsible for ‘Steph’s Packed Lunch’, Channel 4’s landmark daytime series.
In her spare time Rebecca kills houseplants and attempts to control two teenage daughters.

With thanks to Rachel of Rachel's Random Resources for organising a paper copy. One of several bloggers participating in the Blog Tour of this book, agree or disagree with me, all opinions are my own; no financial compensation was asked for nor given; threats of violence towards my favourite teddy bear went unheeded as did promises of chocolate.
