When Sadie Kramer agrees to help decorate for San Francisco’s high- society Halloween Spooktacular, she expects to find whimsical ghosts, skeletons, and jack-o-lanterns when she shows up at the Wainwright Mansion, not a body. Especially not the body of the woman in charge of the charity event.

With two detectives, a paranormal investigator turned television star, and a cauldron full of Wainwright Foundation staff and family members cackling around her, Sadie and her sidekick Yorkie are determined to find out who the killer is. Will an old superstition help lead to the truth? Or will this simply become one more tale in the mansion’s haunted history?

review SPOILER ALERT! 2019-10-01 20:58

Süße Liebesgeschichte für Jugendliche, welche sich in einer Kleinstadt abspielt

Nemonas Lesewelten — feeling love

Wie planbar ist die Liebe?

Genre: New Adult, Romance

Cover:

Das Cover ist sehr minimalistisch gestalten. Die Augen stechen hervor und sind sehr detailliert gestalten. Insgesamt sehr gelungen, auch wenn es für einen Jugendroman vermutlich zu wenig bunt ist.

Zur Geschichte:

Die Handlung beginnt mit dem Abschlussfest, welches von Melinda organisiert wird. Auf diesem treffen Sam und Melinda das erste Mal aufeinander. Als sich Sam für sie interessiert, ist Melinda irritiert. Was er wohl von ihr will?
Melindas trockene Art regt zum Lachen an, auch wenn so mancher die feinen Nuancen ihres Humores nicht verstehen wird. Ich persönlich finde ihren Humor einfach super!

Auch Sams locker-flapsige Art ist urkomisch. Auf der einen Seite kann man nicht anders als die Augen zu verdrehen, wenn er mit einem flapsigen Spruch kontert, während man ihn auf der einen Seite mega süß findet.

Melindas Meinung über Sam wird Stück für Stück revidiert, bis er sich (Achtung: Spoiler!) einen Platz in ihren Herzen erschleicht. Ich finde es sehr gelungen, wie die Autorin mit den Vorurteilen gespielt und diese dann widerlegt hat. Man bildet sich auch im wahren Leben eine Meinung und ist erstaunt, wenn eine Person dann anders ist, als man gedacht hat.

Sams Offenbarung bringt eine neue - unerwartete - Wendung in die Geschicht. Auch hier spielt das Leben manchmal anders als erwartet.

Fazit:

+ Fünf Mal Vielleicht ist eine süße Liebesgeschichte für junge Erwachsene. Sam und Melinda sind einfach top zusammen und man kann die Gefühle hautnah miterleben. Soll ich oder soll ich nicht? Wer ein Kopfmensch wie Melinda ist, kann ihre Zweifel sehr gut nachvollziehen.

+ Es gibt einen Buchtrailer.

- Das Ende. Wie kann die Autorin einfach einen CUT machen? Jaja Fortsetzung, doch wann erscheint diese? Gerne würde ich wissen, wie es weitergeht...

"Sadie is a magnet for murders to happen in her vicinity--and she is totally incapable of not trying to help solve them--and her new friend is every bit as bad-----Between shopping for more outrageous outfits on the boardwalk and piecing together the murder---I found myself laughing at the antics of these two women. The Yorkie also was quite a character in his own right!!" reviews Miki's Hope

~~~

A vacation on the Southern California coast promises rest and relaxation for flamboyant senior sleuth Sadie Kramer and her mischievous Yorkie, Coco. But when the body of a heartthrob celebrity washes up on the beach outside her luxury hotel suite, Sadie's fun-in-the-sun soon turns into sleuthing-with-the-stars.

The resort's wine and appetizer gatherings, suspicious behavior of hotel guests, and casual strolls along the beach boardwalk may provide clues, but will they be enough to discover who the killer is?

Or will mystery and mayhem leave a Hollywood scandal unsolved?

A Mystery With Flair!

Celticlady's Reading Room

A Flair for Chardonnay is the first book in a series that features Sadie Kramer and her sidekick, Coco, a little dog, a Yorkie, who she carries in a little tote bag and is a faithful companion and a very well-behaved one at that. Sadie owns a boutique in San Francisco, right next door to Mateo who is a chocolatier. Sadie does love her chocolates and is not ashamed to admit it. She also has a flair for putting together outfits for her customers of her shop Flair, named for her love of style and adventure.

Mateo and his family own Tremiato Winery in St. Vincent’s Hollow. Even though Mateo is part owner of the winery, his passion is chocolates so he has no part in the daily running of the winery which is a bone of contention to his siblings. They feel he should be assisting in the business. Sadie is concerned about her neighbor after hearing him on the phone arguing with someone so she decides to visit the winery. Her mission is twofold, to find out what may be bothering Mateo and a mini vacation, so she leaves the running of her shop to her trusted employee and off she goes.

At the winery she meets the family, they do not know at this point that she is a friend of Mateo's. While she is there though there is a murder on the premises and that is where the mystery begins. The family had been negotiating to sell the winery but Mateo doesn't want to sell so when a dead body turns up, everyone in the family is suspect.

With Sadie's skill for detective work, she is determined to find out what happened and why? This is when the story gets interesting, even though Sadie is not a detective, just a concerned and nosy friend, she is able to put the clues together and figure out who the killer is.

This is a fun cozy mystery, filled with character and "flair". Written very well with interesting characters and a back story of a seemingly dysfunctional family. Who was the murdered person and why was he killed at the winery and what was his connection to the Tremiato family? Well for these answers you need to read the book! I look forward to reading the next installment in the Sadie Kramer Flair Mystery series.

When flamboyant senior sleuth Sadie Kramer learns the owner of Cioccolato, her favorite chocolate shop, is in trouble, she heads for the California wine country with a tote-bagged Yorkie and a slew of questions.
