Mary-Alice Catherine Manley (Mac) owns Manley Maids, a
cleaning
service. Winning a poker game against her three hunky
brothers, they are
now contemplating their sentences wearing the tight little
mint pants and
shirts, cleaning homes. Losing their parents at an early
age they have
being raised by their paternal and wise grandmother.
Bryan, Liam and
Sean are committed to their little sister and a deal is a
deal. What Mac
hadn't counted on though is that her grandmother had her
sights set on
Mac this time, not the brothers, and she's the target.
Before, her
grandmother had instigated the men working as maids for
women she
herself chose for them as partners, with Mac's help.
Holding a crush on her brothers' best friend Jared Nolan
since childhood,
the conspiracy between his grandmother Mildred and Mac's
grandmother,
the plot has now thickened. Jared was brought up in a
rich and
pampered home with special training and a push to join
baseball
professionally. Now famous and in the spotlight, Jared
makes a big
mistake involving himself with a gold digger. His life
with Celeste is a
wake up call when he finds out she has fleeced him of his
money, gifts
and even his apartment, and has had a "real" boyfriend the
whole time.
Now she won't leave his home and instead intends to keep
it forever.
Being struck by a car driven by her boyfriend, Jared has
been seriously
injured with broken ribs and leg which requires surgery
and extensive PT.
Deciding to recuperate at his grandmother's since she has
moved to an
aged housing, things are now getting hot. Mac has
promised both
grandmother's to be the housekeeper for Jared's duration
and finds this
difficult with the way she was humiliated by Jared when
they were young
he wounded her pride and broker her heart.
Add meddling grandmothers,
4 newborn kittens and Jared's awakening that Mac is a
woman now, only
adds spice to this relationship. This is not the little
tag-along girl Jared
remembers but one that makes his heart stutter. Sparks
fly, unknown
past is discovered in the attic and Mac can't trust her
heart getting
broken once again.
I thought the last book in this series of the Manley
Maids was hot and
funny, but Judi Fennell just keeps getting better. With
the tables turned
on this little feisty maid, the grandmothers are sitting
and plotting away to
meet the desired ending they know should be. WHAT A WOMAN
is packed
full of humor, emotion and a just plain fantastic read.
If entertainment is
what you want, that is definitely what you will get. If
WHAT A WOMAN doesn't keep
you enraptured with the sizzling sexual innuendos and the
unexpected
quirkiness at every corner, nothing will. Judi Fennell is
a phenomenal author with
an uncanny gift for creation.
After starting her housecleaning company, Manley Maids,
one woman is determined to make it on her own. And what a
woman she is…
Now that Mary-Alice Catherine Manley—Mac—has her hunky
brothers working for her, she can sit back and watch the
business roll in. But her new assignment quickly tosses
that plan out the window. Mildred, her grandmother’s best
friend, needs her house cleaned and Gran has volunteered
Mac for the job. The problem is Mildred’s cocky grandson.
He thinks Mac’s at his beck and call, but she has a few
things to tell him…aside from how hot he is.
Jared Nolan is currently lying low, nursing some broken
bones—and a bruised ego. The former professional baseball
player let himself be used by woman once, and now it could
rob him of his beloved career. No woman is ever going to
call the shots again, which is why, when the bossy Mac
shows up, he’s going to show her who’s really in charge.
He’s just not prepared for the undeniable attraction
between them. And with the two of them in one house,
there’s no telling who will come out swinging…
