About this listen

Bobby Hutchinson, a best-selling Harlequin writer, decides to open a B & B in Vancouver, BC, when sales of romance novels falter. Despite never having stayed in a B & B and knowing absolutely nothing about running one, she jumps right in. Strange people from nearby and halfway around the world arrive at her home with their stories and struggles, not to mention their baggage, psychological and otherwise.

Each chapter is peppered with a humor, a little tragedy and many life lessons (but mostly humor). There are sure-fire breakfast recipes guaranteed to turn out even if the cook is half asleep. In explaining why she opened a B & B, she says, "I was far too old for prostitution, the only other job I could think of which might net enough to pay the mortgage."

The Author is a well published romantic novelist, and it shows in.the easy to read style and concentration on personality development.
Following divorce and looming financial disater, Hutchinson decides to open up her impressively large Canadian house as a B & B, although unlicensed (perhaps this latter is why she finds it fine to sleep.with the guests?). Entertaining, revealing her opinions on life generally and neighbours and friends in particular, plus a seriously irritating cat, there are also recipes, notably a useful collection of large scale breakfast ideas at the end of the book. The book is read with warmth and humour by Randy Kaye.
