Wonderful to join this story at the very beginning. I didn't read your previous story, but feel I should be able to pick up and enjoy this sequel. I can only imagine what goes on behind the scenes running a hotel. I look forward to high hilarity!

It's lovely to have you aboard! I ran a 26 bedroom hotel with my late husband, so there a few good stories to use. Alexis x

Lovely, It stars very promising and appears to be as much fun as their previous adventures. I can't find any faults so just waiting to enjoy the next installment. Ulla

Comment from Brett Matthew West
If the rest of the story is as well written as this part was it should be very interesting indeed. Action flowed well. Descriptive language used throughout held reader's interest. Write on.

I followed your last story and will certainly follow this one too.
Great story to be developed.
Great introduction of characters
Good use of dialogue
Good use of nonverbal communication

Thank you so much for your review. Yes, the 'girls' are ready for another adventure or two, and not a chat line in sight! Alexis x

I must admit, when I started writing 'Let's Talk Dirty,' I had no idea how much potential there was in bringing these three ladies together. They now keep me up at night, and my real friends are worried about me! Alexis x

When a tyrant finds herself on the receiving it, things are not right with her world. I trust the Bedford will not be come a bordello. Very well written.

Comment from Phyllis Stewart
Wonderful chapter, but why start a new book? This could continue the first book as Part 2. The first book wasn't all that long, so it could be Part 1. Just a suggestion. :)
door to greet her, made her feel << Lose the comma as it separates the subject from its predicate.
the infamous 'Attila the Hun,' type character << Again, remove comma.

Thank you for catching those, Phyllis. Commas are my weak point, so I need all the help I can get. Having reached 96,000 words, I thought it was time to start another book! Alexis x
Comment from Glasstruth
This truly ends on a happy note. Also makes me feel good about the characters I've come to know as they succeed since I've been rooting for them. Shows how once someone on the bottom rises and becomes a leader. Very up lifting. A great finish. Les

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Les. I posted the first chapter today where the characters introduce themselves and tell you a little bit about their aspirations for the hotel. I hope you enjoy it. Alexis x
Comment from Spitfire
I love the image the ending provides--three fingers all pointing to the door. Mrs. Patel just wasn't getting it.
Revenge is sweet and sounds as if the woman deserved it.

People like Mrs Patel will never get it because they're so up their own backsides. Never mind, the girls enjoyed it! Alexis x
