When April Love applies for a job as an in-house chef at a century-old lakeshore mansion in Canoga Lake, Wisconsin, she never expected to find her old flame, Marc Thorne working there and looking more gorgeous than ever. He’d left her high and dry weeks before their planned wedding, and last she heard, he was living on the West Coast. Soon, the old attraction heats up. But, April senses Marc isn’t spilling all the beans about his past eight years, and no amount of questioning has him talking. Despite being unable to trust Marc for her future, she’s determined to not let him stand in the way of living out her dream.
Their boss is murdered, and Marc is falsely accused of the crime. He’s about to be indicted, and April has no choice but to turn detective and find Ramón Galvez’s real killer. It isn’t long before she realizes she may be the murderer’s next victim if she doesn’t stop her sleuthing. If she stops now, hopes for a future with Marc will end in a cellblock.
Author’s note: The new edition of Thyme for Love is now available. The story is the same as the first edition, but it has been edited and updated and has a brand new cover. I love April and Marc’s story and am excited to reissue this edition of it. I’m now working on editing Love Will Find a Way the sequel to Thyme for Love. As soon as that is released, I plan to write more adventures of April Love in the Cooking Up Trouble series.
