My Thoughts on Hair Calamities and Hot Cash

What a fun book!  One, the cover is hilarious.  I had to read the book because why did this person have blue hair?!  Add in that it’s a bit of a cozy mystery and a good romance and I was hooked!

It’s really just a fun book.  It’s not a serious book at all but one that is going to make you laugh quite a bit while also giving you a good romance.  There is kissing(gasp) but it’s a good clean Christian read.  

I’m not big on hair salons so don’t know how to do hair or any of that, but I do go get my hair done about three times a year and I just love it!  Hair stylists are some amazing people and I do think that a lot gets shared in the salons so it was fun to see that portrayed as well.

More from Gail

Even mysterious events and robbery can’t stop the fun, laughs and romance that follows after New York stockbroker Philip Wells crashes his car into Eve Castleberry’s beauty shop.

Hair Calamities and Hot Cash is a contemporary romance with mystery and comical scenes about a New Yorker and a lonely, young widow in the North Carolina Mountains who fall for each other amid a crisis, danger and suspense.

The story behind Hair Calamities and Hot Cash began many years ago in a small town at the foothills of the North Carolina Mountains, where my mother ran a beauty shop.

Her salon doubled as a meeting place where customers who knew each other discussed how to make the latest recipe, what to do about world affairs and everything in between, including family relations, births, deaths and weddings. Clients planned showers, graduation parties and get-togethers for new neighbors while hair flew.

Mostly townspeople showed up, and the spirit of the community overflowed.

The residents had disagreements, but they didn’t abhor those who thought differently from them. They had close friends, acquaintances, people they tolerated and those they kept at a distance. As in most small environments, they gossiped and could be nosey. However, when someone grieved for a loved one, suffered from an illness or any other crisis, prayers went up and casseroles went out no matter whether the person was a best friend or someone held at a distance.

They all were God’s children.

The walls of Mother’s beauty shop echoed the spirit of the community, and I wanted to bring it back. I set the mystery, romance and shenanigans in the Western North Carolina Mountains. Many years ago, a friend my father knew in college came to visit us, and we drove him to the mountains.

He said, “I’ve travelled the world over, and I’ve never seen a place any prettier than these hills.”

I wanted to share the awe-inspiring scenery. I believe we need those peaceful surroundings and a sense of community now more than when I wrote the book.
