Generations

Brody Hotel, Book 1

By: Amelia C. Adams

Narrated by: Erin Dameron-Hill

Andrew Brody, investment banker and self-made millionaire, has just lost his father but gained an estate. Along with inheriting stocks, bonds, racehorses, and undeveloped land, he learns that he is now the owner of a hotel that has been in the family since 1875 and should probably just be torn down.

Marissa Clark needs a new challenge - staging homes to sell and rearranging pictures on walls isn't what she dreamed of doing when she became an interior designer. When she gets a call asking her to help renovate a historical building, she leaps at the change - what a great way to use both her love of texture and fabric and her love of history.

They believe they're just taking an old building and giving it a second chance at life...but they have no idea that they're getting a second chance, too.

The Brody Hotel is a spin-off of the best-selling series Kansas Crossroads by the same author.

Great Start to a New Series!

WHAT IT'S ABOUT
Andrew Brody, investment banker and self-made millionaire, has just lost his father, but gained an estate. Along with inheriting stocks, bonds, racehorses, and undeveloped land, he learns that he is now the owner of a hotel that has been in the family since 1875 and should probably just be torn down.

Marissa Clark needs a new challenge - staging homes to sell and rearranging pictures on walls isn't what she dreamed of doing when she became an interior designer. When she gets a call asking her to help renovate a historical building, she leaps at the change - what a great way to use both her love of texture and fabric and her love of history.

They believe they're just taking an old building and giving it a second chance at life . . . but they have no idea that they're getting a second chance too.

MY TAKE
There was something so precious about this story that ties to Andrew's connection to his ancestors. It doesn't make financial sense for him to keep the hotel, but he's struck by the link and decides to press on. And hires the lovely Marissa to bring the building up to snuff. My only complaint was that it stops rather abruptly, but that tends to happen in these shorter stories, and I'm happy to know this is just the beginning of a new series by this talented author.

I listened to the audiobook, and Erin Dameron-Hill did a good job.

Enjoyable

Andrew. inherited a family place called Brody Hotel from 1875 , One look and knew it needed to be torn down.Instead he has Marissa to come and redecorate the place..interesting of the history and the people connect thru the years to this place, enjoyable .
Given ARC audio for my voluntary review and my honest opinion
