Never would think to use "delicious" to describe a book. This one is. Wealthy retired jewel thief has to protect her reputation from an imposter. She knows & enjoys jewels, wine, art. She cooks, has beautiful clothes... all the things I don't really care about... except in this book. Fun plot that includes a Count, a fake Count, villas, yachts, food, expensive cars, beautiful European villages, New Scotland Yard, burglary... including a "Good Samaritan" burglar. The likeable sleuth had a rough beginning and then a fabulous life. It's a burglary mystery, not a murder mystery. (Remember the F word: it's Fiction.)
This appears to be 2nd in this series. Just ordered the others. Read one title in a different series by this author and didn't care for it. Will read all of these.
I thought this was a great follow-up to the first book. Kellogg stays true to her characters, and I love her descriptions of everything. The idea of Kick being a jewel thief and her reasons for stealing are intriguing. I didn't think I would like a character like her, but she is sassy and fun to read about.
Cute tale, although kind of mindless....
