Definitely Not a Bed & Breakfast:

A Mack Hollister Comedy Novel

Frank Delaney was supposed to be enjoying retirement.

Instead, he keeps finding new ways to complicate it.

When Frank and Carol agree to spend a quiet weekend helping friends renovate an old Victorian house, the plan seems harmless enough. A little paint. A few repairs. Maybe some bad coffee.

Then the plumbing fails.

The contractor disappears.

The renovation budget explodes.

And six unexpected guests arrive expecting breakfast.

Frank immediately makes one thing clear:

This is definitely not a bed and breakfast.

Unfortunately, nobody believes him.

Before long, Frank and Carol are juggling confused guests, small-town gossip, a fussy inspector, suspicious noises in the walls, questionable bookkeeping, an opinionated neighbor, and friends whose attempts to "help" somehow make every problem worse.

As Carol proves surprisingly good at hospitality and Frank desperately tries to keep the entire operation from becoming permanent, the couple faces an increasingly uncomfortable possibility:

They may actually be good at this.

And worse yet, they may be starting to enjoy it.

Definitely Not a Bed & Breakfast is a warm, laugh-out-loud comedy about retirement, marriage, friendship, second chances, unexpected guests, and what happens when a simple weekend project turns into a business nobody planned to start.

Perfect for readers who enjoy small-town humor, relatable older characters, marriage comedy, quirky neighbors, second-chance stories, and plenty of heart behind the laughs.
