The Chocolate Cat Caper
JoAnna Carl
Enjoy the Guilt
After giving up her career as a Texas trophy wife, Lee
McKinney finds herself in a Michigan resort town, keeping
the books for her aunt Nettie's luxury chocolate business.
But she soon discovers that her new life isn't all truffles
and bonbons....
Clementine Ripley, the defense attorney everyone loves to
hate, is throwing a party that calls for several thousand
dollars' worth of custom chocolates--some made in the image
of her champion cat. Lee jumps at the job, but sweet
success takes a bitter turn when someone adds an extra
ingredient--cyanide--to one of their delicious chocolates
and it finds its way into Ms. Ripley's mouth. Now it's up
to Lee to figure out who tampered with the family recipe
before she and her aunt end up behind not-so-chocolate bars.
