The first chapter did not grip me but after I kept reading, it became an entertaining book. I enjoyed the murder mystery and did not know who had done it! Also liked the romance thrown in, too!

Learned a lot about herbs. Interesting addition to the setting.
Mystery kept me reading. No one character stood out as the culprit until the pieces fell completely into place, allowing the mystery to be solved.
Nice intertwining of a lot of characters, an isolated stories that culminated to complete the puzzle.

Learned a lot about roses.
Mystery was compelling.
I had some trouble keeping track of the characters, although Audrey always added a tidbit that should have helped remind me of who they were.
If this is the last of the series, I was disappointed by the lack of resolution with the main character and the relationship she began in the first book.
