Whenever I crack open a Kathleen Y'Barbo book, I know I'm in for a rip roaring story full of humor, memorable characters, and hopefully, set in the South. With Flora's Wish, I got all three!

I found the concept of Flora losing 4 different fiancés quite intriguing â I cannot imagine a lady's reputation ever recovering from such circumstances. While she was mournful for those losses, she believed that if she wished and prayed, God would send her exactly the man she was meant to marry. On one such occasion of fervent prayer, Will Tucker practically falls in her lap with his smooth talking ways and Flora believes he is the answer to her prayers.

I was so happy that the book started off exploring Flora's relationship with Lucas McMinn, and then filled me in about the connection with Will Tucker later. I was intrigued by Lucas from the beginning â both with his job as a Pinkerton detective and his penchant for inventing things. His hands were forever full with keeping up with Flora, especially her climbing habits. Their mutual love of chocolate cake was a cute addition to the story as well.

The next book in the series will follow another victim of Mr. Tucker, but it appears to be centered around Lucas's Pinkerton partner, Kyle Russell. I enjoyed his character quite a bit, and considering the next book will be set in Memphis (my home city), you can bet I will be reading it as soon as I can!
