Hold on to the feeling of sunshine at the seaside with this
gorgeous romance, perfect for fans of Holly Martin and Jo Thomas.
When Sacha Collins, cafe owner and sundae-maker extraordinaire,
meets Italian archaeologist, Alessandro Salvatore in Rome, she's
grateful to him for being her tour guide. Now he's turned up in the
seaside village where she lives and is setting up a gelateria in
direct competition to her retro Summer Sundaes Cafe. She's only
been running her cafe for two years since taking over from her
father. Until now the only other shops on the boardwalk have been a
wool shop, an antique shop and a second-hand book shop. These have
helped rather than hindered her custom. How will her creative
sundaes made from fresh Jersey ice cream compete with his delicious
Italian gelato? Sacha is worried. Is there enough custom for both
businesses to thrive? Who is behind the strange changes being made
on the boardwalk? And when the oldest resident on the boardwalk is
threatened with eviction can Sacha and Alessandro come together and
find a way of helping her? For a peaceful little boardwalk
overlooking one of the quieter beaches on the island, there's an
awful lot going on and some of it is going to lead to big changes.

gorgeous beachside setting, divine ice-cream sundaes, and a

London. 1945. The capital is shrouded in the darkness of the
blackout, and mystery abounds in the parks after dusk. During a
stroll through Regent's Park, Bruce Mallaig witnesses two men
acting suspiciously around a footbridge. In a matter of moments,
one of them has been murdered; Mallaig's view of the assailant but
a brief glimpse of a ghastly face in the glow of a struck match.
The murderer's noiseless approach and escape seems to defy all
logic, and even the victim's identity is quickly thrown into
uncertainty. Lorac's shrewd yet personable C.I.D. man MacDonald
must set to work once again to unravel this near-impossible
mystery.
