Eggsecutive Orders by Julie HyzyMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Book 3 of the White House Chef Series begins with Ollie being awaken by a phone call telling her the Secret Service is on it's way to pick her up, what? She is confused and the confusion only grows. She finally finds out that someone at dinner last night has died, but knowing everything her kitchen and staff does, she can't understand why they are questioning her and the staff. Then she is hit with the realzation, that not only are they questioning her and her staff, they are locking them out of the kitchen for the time being, nothing will be cooked, and it's the week before Easter and the White House Egg Roll, not to mention that Ollie has finally talked her Mom and Nana into flying out to visit her.
To make matters worse, her questioning ways have made the Secret Service Agent over the White House Staff dislike her so much, that he is out to get her, along with a couple other people...we met Peter Sargant III again in this book, and he is openly gloating about this turn of events. So they agent, Craig assigns her boyfriend Tom to watch over Ollie and threatens him that if she so much as asks the wrong questions his job is toast.
This all leads Ollie, not only on qustioning what happened an how it could happen, but also on a quest to answer some questions in her own life. She realizes that she is just the type of person that has to ask questions, she can't ignore her feelings and that just doesn't fit with what Tom needs. it probably isn't a good fit in the White House, at least in the Secret Service's mind, they want to figure things out, but in reality it is probably in the best interest of the White House to have someone like Ollie around, that doesn't just do her job, but loves her job and the people, and refuses to let things just hang, she needs answers!
Another awesome book by Julie that I recommend to all!!!
