A worthy edition to this series! Once again, Molly finds herself embroiled in a mystery, but what I really enjoy about this series is how each book references items or people we mgith not have paid much attentioon to in the previous books, thus linking the stories seamlessly. The author has clearly planned the series well! Nita's writing is strong, and the characters shine from the page.

What can I say, but wonderful! This is the perfect ending to Molly’s story. Molly captured many hearts and it’s been so lovely to watch her blossom throughout the series. I really enjoyed how this book revealed her Gran’s secrets alongside the mystery that takes place at the hotel. I’m going to miss Molly but I look forward to seeing what Nita writes next.

The loveable+ endearing 𝑀𝑜𝑙𝑙𝑦 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑀𝑎𝑖𝑑 series has come to end! This book concludes the series of cosy mysteries+ they’ve been a joy to read.

𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑀𝑎𝑖𝑑’𝑠 𝑠𝑒𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑡 alternates between Molly’s pov+ that of her Gran’s, through the journal she left for Molly, with a heavy focus on her Gran’s rags-to-riches backstory—— I definitely looked forward to this side of the plot more+ loved how it tied in with the Faberge egg plot.

Lauren Ambrose’s solo narration perfectly brings Molly+ the other characters to life, and makes for a quick+ enjoyable listen. I loved seeing the cast of intriguing, loveable characters again— Molly is so quirky+ delightful and I love her straightforwardness+ the way she views the world, and the rest of the cast at the Grand Regency hotel are all just as likeable.

The plot is well-paced and compelling, and the writing style light, though be aware there is mention of stillbirth, which I hadn’t been expecting The ending has a satisfying conclusion, tying up the series in a neat little bow; just the way Molly would like. I have enjoyed this series but admittedly have enjoyed each instalment less than the last— the first was definitely my favourite! 🙌🏽

⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 3.5/5 (Rounded up to 4)

I loved it. It was so nice to see how Molly’s story ended up. Told through a mixture of present day and diary entries from Molly’s gran, we find out all about her story as well, from her childhood through to the present day. Maybe have tissues ready at the end.

It was lovely to be reunited with Molly with for a third time as I love her character. However, her Gran was the star of the show for me this time and I enjoyed her historical timeline the most. This is a thoughtful and lovely read.

✨ Molly the Maid is back, and once again she's dusting away more than just fingerprints…

I loved diving back into the Regency Grand Hotel’s secrets — from a missing faux Fabergé egg to a diary that might just hold all the answers.
This series continues to charm with heart, mystery, and that quietly clever heroine I can’t get enough of.

Can’t wait to see what comes next for Molly 🕵️‍♀️💫

Molly the maid returns for the 3rd installment in this cozy crime series, and we are able to join up the dots of her family's history.

Still working as Head Maid at the Regency Grand Hotel as well as Special Events Manager, Molly is soon to marry Juan who also works as a chef in the hotel. As the story begins, a popular TV antiques show is due to film at the hotel and the staff are asked to bring in their valuable items to be assessed by the experts.

Molly brings a few treasured items, but one in particular proves to be very valuable, attracting viral interest which invades Molly's life.

On the day of the auction, the unthinkable happens and a thief strikes. Whilst trying to get to the bottom of the mystery, Molly starts to read the journal her grandmother left for her, and begins to piece together the puzzle of her family's secrets.

Wonderful to be back with Molly the Maid on her third and final outing. Molly’s life has changed and she’s about to marry after losing her beloved Gran. This book is told from a dual timeline and point of view with Gran’s diaries providing the (unexpected for me) story of her life. It links to Molly becoming a media sensation which she’s ill-equipped to deal with, following the discovery that one of Gran’s trinkets is a genuine Faberge egg. Illuminating and at times heart rending, this book demonstrates the difficulties faced by women in different generations. Highly recommended.

I enjoy every page of this!
It was so wonderful to be back in the world of Molly
I am gutted this was our final visit
As always the characters were great
The storyline was wonderful and was so interesting hearing more about Gran
Such well written enjoyable books

When Hidden Treasures hold a recording of their programme at the Regency Grand Hotel, Molly takes a box with her treasures in to be assessed. She is shocked when they tell her that the Golden Egg that has graced the shelf in the living room is a Faberge prototype egg and worth a fortune. She agrees to sell and the auction is held shortly afterwards at the hotel. It fetches a good price, but is then stolen. In the meantime, the reader is given glimpses into the upbringing of her Grandmother, who originally owned the egg..
When Molly is given her Grandmother's diary, it would be the key to all of the strange happenings around her.
This took me a little while to get into, but I enjoyed reading the story.

I had a glorious few days back in the world of Molly and Juan Manuel. In the depths of planning their modest wedding, Molly takes her Gran's treasures to a popular antique TV series being filmed at the Regency Grand hotel. She literally faints in shock and becomes an overnight social media celebrity on discovering that one of the ornaments in her Gran's cabinet is literally a Fabergé egg and that the Fabergé nickname for their savings account was genuine and not tongue in cheek. How will Molly cope with being a celebrity multi millionaire?
Heart warmingly, we then uncover the falling in love backstory of Molly's Gran and Mr Preston and learn more about them.
Molly finds out that her Gran's sayings and advice focussing on all that glistens isn't gold were hard learnt lessons from her childhood and early life.

it was lovely to catch up with Molly the Maid in book 3 of this series.

Following two timelines, Molly finds herself at the centre the drama once again, but this time it is even more personal. In the second timeline, we find out more about the history of Molly's Grandmother, giving a really well-rounded view their family backstory.

A great addition to this enjoyable series!

I genuinely think this is one of my favourite mystery series I have ever read, and that warmth and brilliance continues in this new installment in the Molly The Maid series.

Told in two timelines as we discover more about Molly's grandmother's life and Molly solving the case, a case that has never been more personal as one of her grandmother's artifacts is taken after an appraisal and where looking for answers Molly delves into her grandmother's diary and learns more about a life she was never told about. Cinematically told and brimming with with warmth this story pulls you in and keeps you until the last page.

I love these characters so much, Molly is a brilliant character and her and Juan Manuel are the cutest couple really and I'm so glad we get to see the continuation of the story from The Mistletoe Mystery novella. Her grandmother's story takes the emotional weight in this book and though the mystery is wonderful the story she tells in her diary is done beautifully and balances this book out beautifully.

Another fantastic installment of this amazing series, I hope we get more in the future!

(Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the arc for review).

This book is the last instalment of Molly The Maid series.

Molly isn't just The Head Maid, but now also Special Events Manager at The Regency Grand.
The famous reality TV show "The Hidden Treasure" will shoot their episode at The Regency Grand, and two popular art appraisers, Brown & Beagle will be there.
Molly brings along some of her grandmother's old things and surprisingly one of them is the priceless heirloom, the only one of its kind in all the world.
While it will bring a fortune to Molly, the heirloom will also bring anguish. Molly's life becomes in danger and media sensation.
This book is also not just about Molly, it's also telling the past of Molly's grandmother, where she came from, her family, and her love story.
I feel like this book is the perfect ending to the series.

The Maids Secret by Nita Prose
I give this book 4.25 stars.

An old trinket is revealed to be a precious antique during an appraisal at the hotel, making Molly a rags-to-riches sensation. But then it’s stolen: vanishing without a trace.
Determined to crack the case of the missing Fabergé, Molly uncovers a mystery that stretches deep into the past.For in the pages of a long-forgotten diary, written by her late gran, lie the secrets and only Molly holds the key…

This is the third instalment in an entertaining and charming cosy mystery series . We are back with Molly the maid as she hunts for an egg her beloved gran gave her. The authors narrative writing style brings the story to life and although it’s a little predictable it’s lighthearted and full of fun. It’s great to return to the familiar characters and the hotel especially the endearing Molly. The intrigue is added to the plot as she hunts for clues and we uncover secrets of her Gran’s past through her diary.
For me it’s Molly doing what she does best and i love the pure escapism!
With thanks to Netgalley,Nita Prose and Harper Collins UK / Harper Fiction for my chance to read and review this book.

Molly the Maid is back again for a wedding a heist and a big secret. Molly life is about to be changed forever

I love this series and Molly has a place in my heart (along with many other characters 💞) If you haven't read this series I highly recommend for a brilliantly written quick read cosy mystery.

Thank you to Netgalley, Harper Collins UK and Nita Prose for an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

There is just something about Mollie that I can’t help but like. Now she has a fiancé and is about to get married. In this book, the reader learns more about her beloved grandmother’s background. It was interesting to read about her gran, Flora, and her life. It hadn’t been an easy life but her selflessness shone throughout. Little wonder that Mollie often quoted her gran’s sayings. There is a mystery to solve and familiar characters pop up. I liked that no matter what circumstances Mollie found herself in, she remained the same lovable character. If you haven’t read any of these book, then I would thoroughly recommend them. I received a copy and have voluntarily reviewed it. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Molly, who works at the Regency Grand Hotel, is back and getting ready to help set up for TV show Hidden Treasures. Much to Mollys surprise, she herself has a valuable treasure and is instantly rich, that is until a heist takes the treasure. Molly and her friends set about finding the thief.

This is the third book in the Molly the Maid series and although can be read as a standalone, is best if read in order to get a better idea about Molly and her background to stop confusion, as there are quite a lot of characters. This was a fun mystery and I liked the antique dealer element to it. Molly is an interesting character so it was nice to see her back, although this novel seemed to be less about her and more about the mystery/gran backstory.

Even though there were some good parts, I felt similar feelings to the previous book I read in the series; the overall story dragged and felt long and slow. I did end up struggling a bit with it and have to say that unfortunately this may be the end of this series for me. Even though I didn’t fully connect with this one, I can see those who love Molly and cosy crime really enjoying it. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this copy in return for an honest review.

An interesting and engaging start setting out a family’s history and experiences of servitude with hints of secret alliances and a prototype faberge egg worth millions.

The story is told from the experiences of two characters. Flora, grand mother to Molly, has left letters in a diary explaining her early life of privilege when she fought the social norms of the time to get an education. A change in her fathers business prospects sees her plunged into poverty and a new life as a maid. This story contrasts with Molly’s life as a hotel maid who gets suddenly thrust into the limelight when it is discovered that she has a prototype faberge egg worth millions. The two lives gradually merge and the mystery around the faberge egg gradually unfolds.

This is a clever and engaging story with strong characters and evocative dialogue. The ending was very apt and left me wanting to hear more about Molly the Maid as she embarks on married life.

Molly the Maid is back with a third instalment. It is told in duel timeframes this time, present time of Molly’s of where she find herself richest beyond her wildest dreams, or does she? Then in the past timeframe there are letters to Molly written by her Grandma Flora all about the life she had led in a wealthy upbringing.

I have read the first two books in this series and I enjoyed those too, I loved reading about Molly again and her friends, previous characters that had been in the stories before. I felt that this book gave Molly the happy ending she deserved and am guessing this will be the final book.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC of this book in exchanged for my honest review.
