It makes sense that a woman who is a successful writer of romance novels would be well qualified to run a B&B; in a charming older house in Vancouver.  Unfortunately, producing elaborate breakfasts at dawn and scraping semen off  flannel sheets isn't all that romantic.This wonderful book is partly about the author's attempt to turn her home into a source of much-needed income.  I say "partly" because (like all my favorite writers) she feels no obligation to STICK TO THE SUBJECT, but lets her fancy wander where it will. And so we learn a great deal more about this funny, intelligent lady and her interesting experiences than about the not-so-fascinating subject of dealing with paying guests. All to the good. I'm  thrilled to have discovered this superb writer and I hope she will occasionally take a break from the romance genre to keep us up to date.
