Venom in Vanilla
Book One in The Sundae of Secrets Series
By Patti Petrone Miller
Welcome to Seabreeze Shores—where the ice cream is homemade, the ocean breeze never quits, and secrets are served by the scoop.
Lila Montgomery loves two things: her quaint seaside town and her charming ice cream shop, Salted Caramel’s. Nestled between rocky cliffs and sugar-sand beaches, Seabreeze Shores is the kind of place where everyone knows your name—and probably your business. But when a slick out-of-towner named Graham Fox rolls in with big money and bigger plans to transform the waterfront into a tourist trap, tensions churn faster than Lila’s house-churned vanilla bean swirl.
Then Graham turns up dead during the town’s annual festival… with one of Lila’s cones in his hand.
The police say it was an accident. Lila’s gut says otherwise.
With her reputation on the line and whispers of murder spreading faster than a summer heatwave, Lila must follow a trail of half-truths, hidden agendas, and sticky secrets. But in a town like Seabreeze Shores, digging up the past may just lead her into a chilling truth—one no amount of sprinkles can sweeten.
A deliciously cozy mystery packed with charm, suspense, and just the right amount of danger, Venom in Vanilla will keep you guessing until the very last scoop.
