Publisher Description
Heartwarming books with characters you'll love: Welcome to Pajaro Bay.
Aspiring chef Bree Taylor thought she'd found a home at last, in the kitchen of Lassiter's restaurant. Chef Henry Lassiter was not only her mentor, but a dear friend who regaled her with stories of his childhood home in Pajaro Bay. Henry's sudden death shattered her world, leaving her as lost and grieving as his beloved old dog, Maisy. Now Bree has only one last task to complete for Henry: she will deliver the dog to Henry's twin sister in Pajaro Bay. Then she can move on, and find some way to start over, as alone and adrift as ever.
But what she finds when she arrives is not the happy, cozy little village Henry had described, but a town full of mysteries she can't understand, from his sister's odd behavior, to the handsome doctor with eyes as rich as bittersweet chocolate who can't seem to decide if he is attracted to her--or just wants her to leave him alone.
In the end, she'll have to use everything Henry taught her, about faith and trust and believing in herself, to find a new path, with new friends, a new community, and the happily ever after Henry had always promised was waiting for her, whenever she was ready to take a chance.
Get away to the little California beach town where the cottages are cute, the neighbors are nosy, and it's always possible to find your personal Happily Ever After.

Enjoyable read
I enjoyed this book, though it was a little different from a run of the mill HEA it was a little mystery playing out & very little romance. A couple of kisses was as close to “action” as there was in this one! A very clean book, which is hard to find.
Little Fox Cottage
I had not read this author before. For the most part it kept me interested. The story was about a young woman who worked with a chef hoping to become one too and owning her own restaurant.
He treats her like a daughter, but who suspiciously dies of a heart attack. The woman is tasked with going to his home town to take his belongings and his dog to his twin sister. She finds his sister in ill health and ends up staying longer, becoming involved with a doctor, mystery deaths and illnesses, falling in love with the town, the people, and attempting to solve the mystery of the deaths with the sheriff and the doctor. It does have an HEA, but it took a while.
Good book
Thought it was about cooking ended up being about murder from a person who I didn’t think about in that way. Interesting.
