I'll start my review by saying I'm completely biased, I'm a huge fan of Nita Prose's work and she can do no wrong in my eyes. I still remember reading the ARC for The Maid back in summer 2021; life was bleak then and her writing put a huge smile on my face. I can't believe it's only been two years since The Maid was published in 2022, Nita Prose's already a household name who's sold millions of copies... wild!

The Maid's Secret is a fantastic novel which can be read both as part of the series or as a standalone book. Published by HarperCollins UK, this is the third installment in the beloved Maid Series, following The Maid and The Mystery Guest. This latest book continues the story of Molly Gray, Head Maid and Special Events Manager of the Regency Grand Hotel. As Molly prepares for her wedding, an old trinket from her collection is revealed to be a priceless artifact in the TV show Hidden Treasures, and she becomes a media sensation. But on auction day, the artifact vanishes!!

The story intricately weaves past and present through a long-forgotten diary belonging to Molly’s Gran, unveiling her own love story and secrets. Molly is as intriguing as ever, and the dual timeline adds depth to her character while exploring her grandmother’s remarkable past.

I'm eager for more of Molly’s adventures!!!

Wow! I have liked the first two instalments in this series but this book blows them out of the water. This book has a different feel to it, without spoiling it, the plot is quite different to the first two and as a result the book has a different feel to it, one that I loved I must say. Throughout this book we learn so much more about Molly and her gran, I already loved these characters but having read this, I love them even more.
The plot is captivating, still exciting and Prose manages to sprinkle some twists along the way. I laughed and loved during this read and can only hope for more from Molly the Maid.
Thank you to NetGalley and HarperCollins UK for an advance copy.

In the third instalment of Molly the Maid we are faced with the theft of a family heirloom that takes us through a dual timeline of events culminating in the present day. While this was very well executed, I feel as though, as a reader of the series, we are getting into the points whereby the author is “dragging it out” and actually finished this book hoping that the author decides to leave the series as a trilogy. I feel as though everything from the previous two books was wrapped up nicely in this third instalment.

The Maid's Secret by N. Prose, published by Harper Collins UK, is the third book in the Maid Series.
I recommend to read the books in order. The previous books are The Maid and The Mystery Guest.
Molly the Maid is an intriguing charater in a story that is literally unputdownablle. Full of unexpected twists and turns, the story had me guessing til the last page. A wonderful book, 5 stars.
Blurb: Molly Gray’s life is about to change in ways she could never have imagined. As the esteemed Head Maid and Special Events Manager of the Regency Grand Hotel, two good things are just around the corner—a taping of the hit antiquities TV show Hidden Treasures and, even more exciting, her wedding to Juan Manuel.
When Molly brings in some old trinkets to be appraised on the show, one item is revealed to be a rare and coveted artifact worth millions. Molly becomes a rags-to-riches sensation, and a media frenzy swirls as she prepares to sell her priceless treasure. Then, on auction day, the treasure suddenly vanishes. and Molly and her friends find themselves at the center of the boldest art heist in recent memory.
But the key to this mystery lies in the past, in a long-forgotten diary written by Molly’s Gran. For the first time ever, Molly learns about her grandmother’s secrets: how she was born into a wealthy family and fell head-over-heels in love with a young man her parents deemed below her. As fate would have it, Gran’s greatest love was someone Molly knows quite well.
A spirited heist caper and an epic love story, The Maid’s Secret is a spell-binding whodunit that will capture your heart.

I firstly want to thank nita prose for this masterpiece of a book , harper Collins & NetGalley for letting me read this arc copy it didn’t disappoint. This book was everything I needed that I didn’t even know I needed, firstly the cosy mystery part it never fails even when you guess the plot twists you never feel disappointed when all is revealed as you feel a bit of validation unlike other thriller books. This book is a heartwarming hug in a book, I felt myself smiling, giggling and nearly tearful when going through the flashbacks of grandma & her childhood. It was everything I needed i absolutely adored this book. If your in a reading slump this is the book to get you out of it the line of characters is perfection I love the cross over from the previous books in this book but not solely heavily influenced throughout. I would 100% recommend
