It almost like...Carmen Sandiego meets (low-dose) Hallmark movie in Pittsburgh??
4 stars because this was exactly what I asked for - a lighthearted h cozy holiday read without the heavy-handed romance "fluff." While I, too, enjoy a good Hallmark movie this time of year, I was itching for something a little less overwhelmingly "sweet" to read. I originally hoped for more character development, but in end was fine with the more plot-driven approach for a quick evening read amidst a busy holiday season.
We love a local author. Be forgiving with small typos and grammatical missteps. 🤍
