Book one-hundred-and-twenty-three: Staying at Daisy’s

Staying at Daisy’s (2007/2002)
Jill Mansell


Rating: 3/5
[The 115: 9/155]

Good, but having so many point-of-view characters and storylines made it a bit slow at times. The dialogue, as always, was very funny and made it worth the wait to find out what happens to each character.

Daisy MacLean runs the country house hotel owned by her flamboyant father, Hector. When she hears who's about to get married there, she isn't worried at all - her friend Tara absolutely promises there won't be any trouble between her and ex-boyfriend Dominic, whom she hasn't seen for years. But Dominic has other ideas...

Meanwhile, Hector's getting up to all sorts with...well, that's the village's best kept secret. And then Barney turns up, with a little something belonging to the husband Daisy's been doing her best to forget.
That's the thing about hotels, you never know who you're going to meet. Or whether they're going to stay...
