The Rose Revived

by Katie Fforde

It’s déjà vu all over again. No, wait, it’s just another formulaic novel from Katie Fforde.

Three women meet at an interview for a cleaning job. All three women, who are as different as different can be, are hired by Quality Cleaners. They are:

• May, the boat dweller in need of some fast cash;
• Sally, the out of work actress; and
• Harriet, the aspiring artist.

They become fast friends and soon discover that Quality Cleaners is not a quality operation. They decide to quit and form their own cleaning company.

And, yes, along the way, each woman meets a man and falls in love, etc. Same darn structure as the last Fforde novel I read. Exactly.
