Josephine Eloise Thomas and her family are getting ready for the grand opening of their hotel. And with the surprise gifting of a beautiful tabby kitten from Josephine's next-door neighbours, the Martins, things are looking up. Until chaos strikes.

To start, the criminal mastermind Anastasia, hellbent on exacting revenge on Josephine, is still on the run. Then, the historical significance of Josephine's locket having been purchased by Louis XVII becomes common knowledge, so Josephine needs to keep her valuable jewel out of harm's way. And with their new housekeeper and guests roaming the chateau as it becomes a hotel, she must keep her family safe too.

What's more, Gabriel Barbier, the gorgeous French boy she thought was her very good friend, is caught up working on an art project with the beautiful new girl, Maude, and seems to have no time for Josephine.

Are the antics at the chateau just accidents or sabotage? How long can Josephine keep Louis a secret from her family? Will Maude get in the way of a summer romance for Josephine and Gabriel? And can the family's hotel open successfully?
