The sweet life / Suzanne Woods Fisher.

Fisher, Suzanne Woods, (author.).

Summary:

"Dawn Dixon can hardly believe she's on a groomless honeymoon on beautiful Cape Cod . . . with her mother. Sure, Marnie Dixon is good company, but Dawn was supposed to be here with Kevin, the love of her life (or so she thought). Marnie Dixon needs some time away from the absolute realness of life as much as her jilted daughter does, and she's not about to let her only child suffer alone -- even if Marnie herself had been doing precisely that for the past month. Given the circumstances, maybe it was inevitable that Marnie would do something as rash as buy a run-down ice-cream shop in the town's tightly regulated historic district. After all, everything's better with ice cream. Her exasperated daughter knows that she's the one who will have to clean up this mess. Even when her mother's impulsive real estate purchase brings Kevin back into her life, Dawn doesn't get her hopes up. Everyone knows that broken romances stay broken . . . don't they? Welcome to a summer of sweet surprises on Cape Cod -- a place where dreams just might come true"-- Provided by publisher.

The Sweet Life

Booklist
From Booklist, Copyright (c) American Library Association. Used with permission.

After losing her father, her fiancé, and her future plans, the last thing Dawn Dixon needs is her impulsive mother going bankrupt on a pipe dream. Marnie Dixon may be the eccentric opposite of her pragmatic daughter, but she craves something to assure her that her best days did not die along with her husband and her recent cancer diagnosis. When Marnie buys an old creamery during a mother-daughter getaway in Cape Cod, she feels the spark of a new beginning that both women desperately need but clashes with the local historical society threaten to spoil their sweet plans. Fisher begins her new Cape Cod Creamery series set along the Massachusetts coast with a soulful story of risk and reimagined identity that celebrates the savoring of life's delicious imperfections and the unexpected beauty and renewal possible even in a season of loss. With the dissonance of local versus tourist culture causing swirling public drama and with characters' private struggles, this deliciously concocted novel is a charming start to a sure-to-satisfy series.
