Millie and Ezno have finally built the life they always wanted. Now married, with two children, and moving into a new house which is a bit of a stretch on the budget – but they will make it work. The past – is.. in the past.
So when the neighbors invite them over for dinner how can they refuse? This is the way life is supposed to be… yet their maid looks at Millie like she can see right through her – secrets and all, and the overly attractive wife is a bit too handy with Enzo for Millie’s taste and her eyes linger just a little too long….
Soon to follow is trouble for the kids at school, and Enzo disappears late at night and is often seen in the neighbor’s yard …
What is going on? Is happily ever after too much to ask for?

Well….
Hmmmm.
In the beginning of this book, I feel that maybe McFadden should have stopped at two books in this series. It was nice to read she had the guy, she had a family, and is no longer a maid or in the situations she once seemed to find herself in but the book did not pop…
Or I should say – it didn’t pop until the end where once again McFadden comes in with a sideways swipe that was GOOD.

I am glad I finished the series – and who knows… it is open enough for another Housemaid book and if I am honest – I would probably read it if there is mainly to see where it is going.
Would love to hear others’ thoughts on these books – while good, I would not say they were my favorite of McFadden.
