Juicy Jersey (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781517794385)

Summertime, and the living is... not as easy as Mina had hoped. But, she finally has a full-time job, working alongside her new boyfriend, Jack (that is, Chef Jacque, when they're at Squirrel Run Acres.) That's good, right? Except that poor Mina and Jack have been working together a lot lately-specifically fourteen hour shifts in a sizzling kitchen-for months. When tempers flare hotter than fat on a fire, Jack steps up and splurges for a romantic get-away to Cape May Point, New Jersey. All is forgiven and soon sunset beaches wink from the distance, until Mina's stuck with dog sitting duties for Jim, her buddy Bauser's three-legged dog. Complicating the canine conundrum is Bauser's last minute plea to deliver Jim to a client location, in Bumville, New Jersey. No biggie, except that Bumville lies in the polar opposite direction from Cape May. And Vito and Miriam also happen to be visiting the client-who is none other than Vito's niece, Helena Pryzchntchynzski. Oy. Further jeopardizing their journey through Jersey is Jim's discovery of Babette Bernstein. Her murder launches a connect-the-dots of corpses that ripples dangerously around Mina and Jack. Oh-and the kidnappings, plural-are a little scary, too. Will Mina and Jack escape the bad guys? Will they survive their first vacation together? More importantly, will they finally have one? If you're in the mood for funny fiction, a cast of chatty pets, and unsolved murders-read on. Juicy Jersey packs a roller coaster ride of murders, mayhem and mojitos. Come root for Mina, boo the bad guys and nibble a nosh, courtesy of the author's recipes in the back of the book, vetted by Lund's real-life favorite chef, her husband, Chef Andrew.
