Sweep in Peace by Ilona Andrews

Product Details

Book Description:
Dina DeMille isn't your typical Bed and Breakfast owner. Her inn defies laws of physics, her dog is secretly a monster, and the only permanent guest of the inn is a former Galactic tyrant with a price on her head. The inn needs guests to thrive and guests have been scarce, so when an Arbitrator shows up at Dina's door and asks her to host a peace summit between three warring species, she jumps on the chance. Unfortunately, for Dina, bridging the gap between space vampires, the Hope-Crushing Horde, and the merchants of Baha-char is much easier said than done. To make the summit a success, she must find a chef, remodel the inn, keep her guests from murdering each other, and risk everything, even her life, to save the man she might fall in love with. But then it's all in the day's work for an Innkeeper…




I'm going to have to read this again to see just why I seem to be the only one a bit unhappy with this book. It may be the fact that for me, there is a tad too much back-story or if you will - 'rehashing' of the last book, repetitive passages and too much clothing and food descriptions - but then it may have been the rather slow plot (yes I do understand that there is a reason for this) - at least until the last 15%. But it does have a great ending -as do most of this teams other books do.

I did get to learn about other groups AND Her Grace Caldenia better. So that's a plus. Plus I loved seeing the house go through so many different changes and moods. The house makes a wonderful secondary character.
