Enjoyed the book overall, looooved Gideon and Grace! And dear Ozzie as well. I felt the characters were over the top at times, but Prue did resonate with me so I do forgive her as the FMC. I did side-eye Aunt Gussie and her “Oriental” sedan though. Some of the scenes that stood out include the first meet (bants galore), the park, the jewels (Gideon my heart), the wedding (Ozzie!),  and the final confrontation in the inn (pig slops). I think it seemed a bit like a sitcom, but it’s at least a sitcom I’d love to watch.
