The Sweet Life

The Sweet Life by Suzanne Woods Fisher

4 stars.  Thanks to Revell, division of Baker Publishing, for sending me this book to read and review. Perfect read for the summer. If you like Cape Cod- added bonus. As you probably can tell ice cream is definitely a player in this book. Side note- I knew very little about making ice cream before this book and the author did her research-learned it’s not an easy task. 

Two main leading ladies in this read, mom/daughter duo. Daughter is trying to make partner in accounting firm, mom just survived breast cancer and learning to live as widow (husband died almost year ago).  Dawn, daughter, recently broke up with fiance’ ( really he left her). She couldn’t get her honeymoon deposit back so her mom goes with her to the hotel in Cape Cod.  While there her mom decides to buy an ice cream shop and rebuild her life in this quaint little town.  As one could expect there were roadblocks to the opening of the ice cream shop.  Good story and not over-fluffy. 

Bonus- had to get ice cream to set up a perfect pic to promote this book
