very funny and very hard to put down, I love this kind of cosy read.
I already did a review for this book but it doesn't seem to be in. Anyway I like the way she writes and her heroine reminds me of someone I know who always complains about her lack of height too.
Have purchased another three of her books so that must tell you something. The flower shop idea is really good and her co-workers are people you would like to get to know. And as I am english I find Grace easy to understand.
Well that's it, if you buy it you won't be sorry.

Abby Knight, owner of the flower shop Bloomer's, started out that particular Monday high on life. Then some maniac backed his SUV into the front of her classic Corvette and drives off. Not one to suffer injustice, she gets part of his license plate and begins trying to track down the culprit.
Things turn interesting when Abby learns of a murder in a nearby apartment building. It happened just before Abby's car was hit. Could the killer be the person who hit her car? Can Abby and her car live long enough to find out?
I had been interested in this series because of the book titles alone. I love a good pun, and these are great. I finally took the plunge, and I'm glad I did. The book is filled with warmth, from the lovable characters to the writing style. There are several laugh out loud moments and plenty of grins. The characters are interesting and real. I can't wait to get to know them better in the other books. Abby does behave rather stupidly at times. Of course, only once did I completely disagree with her actions.
Unfortunately, the plot suffered a little. I didn't mind the fact that the book spent plenty of time dealing with things not related to the mystery since I truly like Abby and watching her with her family was highly entertaining. In fact, those were some of the best laughs of the book. What did bother me was the climax. While I had pieced things together myself, everything was way too rushed. Hopefully, that was a rookie mistake. I certainly intend to find out.
Whether you love flowers or not, don't miss this book. It's lots of fun. I look forward to reading more about Abby in the near future.
