Description from the publisher:
Rosella Rivers enjoys the perfect
life, loving her new ice cream food truck business featuring exotic flavors.
But her beach view parking space is not so lovable when she finds an
acquaintance stabbed to death in the boardwalk bathroom.
Detective Mark Pruitt knows murder is bad for small-town Olympus Bay. He must find the suspect before he strikes again. When he first sets eyes on Rosella, the only witness, he is smitten. However, there's no time for romance when danger lurks.
Together he and the lovely ice cream maker must discover the killer before he turns his sight on Rosella.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SEA SALT LAVENDER FOR APHRODITE is
the eighth book in the multi-author One
Scoop or Two series. Each is a –
sweet as ice cream – romance that stands alone and includes an ice cream store….
Or in this case an ice cream truck.
Rosella creates unique ice cream
flavors – there is no simple vanilla bean or Neapolitan available at her food
truck. Her number one fan is Mick E.
Rodente (Mickey Mouse LOL) and his beautiful standard poodle, Aphrodite, is her
best customer. Now, if you know me at
all, having a dog in the story is sure to win me over faster than chocolate on
a double dip cone. Aphrodite is not just
beautiful. She is smart and integral to
solving the mystery.
I love that this story is a cozy
mystery, but don’t forget this is a sweet romance. Detective Mark Pruitt is sent to investigate,
and their relationship develops just as sweet as the ice cream that Rosella
creates despite the unsavory murder that has occurred.
Note: While I received this book as a gifted ARC
