I picked this up at a Little Free Library in Irricana Alberta when covid camping 2020!
From the internet... Two novels from beloved authors Janet Evanovich and Dorien Kelly, now in one great package
The Husband List
New York City, 1894. Caroline Maxwell wants nothing more than to join her brother, Eddie, and his friend, Jack Culhane, on their adventures. While Jack and Eddie are off seeing the world, building wildly successful careers, Caroline’s stuck at home frightening off the men her mother hopes will ask for her hand in marriage. When her mother sets her sights on the questionable Lord Bremerton as a possible suitor, Caroline struggles with her instincts and the true nature of her heart. She longs for adventure, passion, love―and, above all, an unconventional Irish-American bachelor with new money and no title: Jack Culhane. What could possibly go wrong…or oh-so right?
Love in a Nutshell
Kate Appleton needs a job. She’s been fired from her position as a magazine editor―and left by her husband. Now, the only thing left for Kate to do is retreat to her parents’ summer house, The Nutshell, in Keene’s Harbor, Michigan. Kate’s plan: to turn The Nutshell into a bed and breakfast…if she can come up with the cash. Enter Matt Culhane, who hatches a plan for Kate to spy on his brewery employees. Someone has been sabotaging his company and, if Kate can find the culprit, Matt will pay her a $20,000 bonus. But Kate despises beer. No one seems to trust her. And she is falling hard for her boss. Can these two smoke out a saboteur, save Kate’s family home, and keep a killer from closing in…all while resisting their undeniable attraction to one another?

As usual I enjoyed this Janet Evanovich (Dorien kelly) book. The interesting thing about the 2 books is they both feature a Mr Culhane. I kept waiting for them to be related, as how odd both the same last name, but nope, they are not! I say this to save you from wasting time trying to figure the relationship out!
Another porch swap out due to continuing covid restrictions. Thank you Sing-song for dropping off some books and picking some up!
I did a porch book exchange with crossingguardma and also got a bonus Covid style walk!
These two stories were fun reads, one historical fiction and the other a modern one, both with a brewer with the last name of Culhane. I enjoyed this read - a nice change from the heavy I just finished.
We are having an outdoors meetup in the rain. Perhaps in the garage? See if I can find any takers for this.
We had a backyard meetup to exchange books. Needed a shade umbrella!
Picked up at the July 2022 Calgary bookcrossing meeting. Hope it has an audiobook available. I could use something campy.
