I read and reviewed a totally different historical romance for you this week. This story is a blend of mystery, building romance, and sweeping history set in Vienna.
Loaded with twists, humor, and heat, continue on to read the review for this upcoming release.
Hotel of Secrets by Diana Biller
Publisher: St. Martin’s Griffin (March 28, 2023)
ISBN-13 : 978-1250809452
OVERVIEW:
During ball season, anything can happen―even love.
It’s ball season in Vienna, and Maria Wallner only wants one thing: to restore her family’s hotel, the Hotel Wallner, to its former glory. She’s not going to let anything get in her way – not her parents’ three-decade-long affair; not seemingly-random attacks by masked assassins; and especially not the broad-shouldered American foreign agent who’s saved her life two times already. No matter how luscious his mouth is.
Eli Whittaker wants only one thing: to find out who is selling American secret codes across Europe, arrest them, and go home to his sensible life in Washington, DC. He has one lead – a letter the culprit sent from a Viennese hotel. But when he arrives in Vienna, he is immediately swept up into a chaotic whirlwind of balls, spies, waltzes, and beautiful hotelkeepers who seem to find themselves in danger constantly. He disapproves of all of it! But his disapproval is tested as he slowly falls deeper into the chaos – and as his attraction to said hotelkeeper grows.
Hotel of Secrets by Diana Biller Review
This story is so unique. It is not the typical historical romance that you have read. This is more like women’s fiction with a historical twist.
This story offers something for every reader. A wonderful cast of characters with a fabulous and unique storyline that engages you with every turn of the page.
A family full of secrets, a government office with some interesting issues, spies who everyone seems to know are spies, attempted murders at every turn, and building romance with a surprising twist.
Biller has a wonderful way of telling a story that envelops you completely. I love the humor and fun she built into the book. Chaotic wildness, strange family issues, and a strong, steamy romance that sucks you in.
Overall, Hotel of Secrets is a whirlwind of a story I think you will love! And that cover? Perfect!!
4 STARS!
