This cozy mystery is a train wreck. The author took the same plot points and wrote them twice - once as the main contemporary storyline and again veiled as a historical mystery the heroine is writing, and neither time are they compelling. Plot details conflict with each other: on some pages, Nana Jo has her own apartment (with a guest room) and on other pages she lives in Samantha's loft above the bookstore. Few of the characters are likeable.
