I am a debuting Author. Tigers Love Bubble Baths & Obsession Perfume (who knew!)is a cozy mystery romance with a spiritual twist.
It came together with 3 ideas. Tigers really love bubble baths and obsession perfume. Wow! what a great title I thought visiting a big cat reserve in FL and watching this incredible creature joyfully climb into a steel tank filled with bubbles and lap up sprayed obsession perfume! I weaved it into the story. My wish poster comes from a real one in a Nursing Home. Now what if they asked for something so unrealistic and it was granted! Third, a dear friend was blindsided by a cheating husband. This is my fourth manuscript finally published. It took me a year and a half to write it. I have ten years of rejections so if it's your dream and passion to write never give up! I hope you enjoy my novel.
My Best to You Always,
Mary K. Savarese

Before I jump into reviewing Tigers Love Bubble Baths & Obsession Perfume (who knew!) by Mary K. Savarese, let me praise the author for the selection of the cover image. I know it is bad to judge a book by its cover, but the moment I laid eyes on this cover, I knew the book would be good. That being said, I was very happy when I realized that I was correct in making this assumption. Unlike the usual murder mysteries that have young, vital and obviously attractive people as protagonists, this novel has a woman who has lived and loved her life and is now on to the next chapter. I enjoyed reading this novel from the perspective of a person who is not 25 years old. I loved the themes, the narrative and the overall development of the plot. The author had complete command over the story. There were no slip-ups, no mistakes and no complaints from me, which made this a brilliant novel. What more can I say? I loved it!
