The Weary Traveler (Vacancy, #1)
A.K. Caggiano
Lorelei Fischer desperately needed somewhere to spend the night, and, as if by magic, Moonlit Shores Manor appeared. But there’s a cost for everything, magic included. More than willing to escape her old life and fill the open position at the bizarre bed and breakfast, Lorelei quickly learns of the dangers waiting for her. She’s only human, after all, and casting spells, shifting into wild animals, and caring for mythical creatures aren’t exactly in the wheelhouse of a former barista and art school failure. At the manor, faeries might pull tricks on you while washing linens, werewolves might try to rough up your bellboy, and a shadowy presence in the woods might be your undoing if you ask too many questions. With the help of her supernatural, live-in coworkers, Moonlit Shores Manor could be Lorelei’s sanctuary from her past mistakes. Though as the truth of the manor’s history unravels, it could just as likely become another place Lorelei must flee to save not just her reputation but her life.

This one starts out really exciting and intriguing and quickly grows really fun as the reader is introduced to a ton of supernaturals … however for me, it didn’t stay that way. New supernaturals were constantly added in, usually I find this fun but in this instance, I couldn’t help but wonder if they were there for the sake of variety of species. Not all introductions had substance.
While it remained fun, it grew very slow-paced and unfortunately didn’t hold my attention for long. The first couple hours it did, but the next couple hours, I realized I was growing bored.
However, this does seem to be the beginning of a fun, promising world. I wouldn’t call it ‘bad’ by any means, just not for me.
3 stars.

Note:
I listened to the audiobook. This was my first experience with this narrator, and I quickly discovered that she’s one of my faves, if that makes sense. She’s great! Smooth voice, good pronunciation, appropriate tones, etc.
