review 1: I read this book for my bookclub. I thought it was ok and liked it enough that I wouldn't mind reading the others in the Manley Maids series, at least to give them a chance. However ALL the animals were over kill and she pushed Sean's honesty angle too hard. You just saw she was setting it up for a hard fall, and Livvy seemed to flip back and forth between looking to the future and living for today.One of the members was a teacher so she always wants to grade the books. I would give it a C, she gave it a D-.
review 2: This is the first book of Judi's that I have read and I will say it was a refreshing delight to read. What a Woman Wants is the first book in the Manley Maids series and features three brothers Sean, Bryan, and Liam Manley who have lost a poker ha
... morend to their sister and become maids for a month as part of her business.The first story is about Sean, he is a resort entrepreneur, who buys historic mansions and turns them into resorts. Sean has had a Historic Mansion that he wants in his mind for some time now. The Martinson Estate, owned by the previous owner, Grandmother Meriweather Martinson. Her granddaughter, Livvy Carolla has inherited the Mansion, but wants to make a quick sale. She had no relationship with her grandmother at all. So she wants nothing to do with the Estate. Livvy who was abandoned as a child into boarding school,never had a relationship with her grandmother. She goes to the Estate with the intention of getting it sold as quick as she can. What she does not plan on is having to deal with Sean. Livvy has a big obstacle in front of her and that is her grandmother's will. One that it seems she planned out very well with conditions that had to be met with by Livvy. Livvy enlists the help of Sean on her scavenger hunt so she can get things done and sell the Estate. what she does not know is that Sean has a plan of action himself. After all he wants the Estate himself, BUT Livvy does not know this. I loved the back and forth between these two. The cat and mouse of the clues that Livvy had to find because of her grandmother and her will Stipulations. Will Livvy find all the clues and sell the Estate? Will Sean get what he wants in the End? Or will these two comes together and build a life together at the Estate?? What a funny, sweet read it was. I enjoyed this one and I am looking forward to the next one as well. less
