Throughout this story, I loved the development of Molly as a character. Her quirkiness and social interactions make for a unique character. As the story progressed, I began to suspect she knew more than she let on. As a maid, Molly sees much more than she lets on. She is able to be “invisible” and knows the hotels deepest secrets. 

I was suspicious of Rodney as soon as he had the black eye. Then with the flashbacks and him being manipulative with Molly, something was obviously off. I suspected the affair with Giselle fairly early on, but the predictability of it didn’t take away from the story evolving for me. 

I made a note EARLY in the story saying, “I love Mr. Preston. It’s like Molly still has a grandparent looking out for her.” At the end, he essentially reveals that he likely IS her grandfather, though I don’t know if Molly ever puts that together. 

Overall, I loved this story because it felt unique and new in a lot of ways. It gave readers an inside look into a seemingly invisible, mundane existence as a maid.
