Cape Cod Creamery

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.

Escape to Cape Cod-where you just might find the secret to happiness Callie Dixon had the world by the tail … until it all slipped away. Fired from her dream job after making a colossal mistake, she's escaped to her aunt's home on Cape Cod for time to bounce back. Except it isn't a home, it's an ice cream shop. And time isn't going to help, because Callie's bounce has up and left. There's a reason she made that mistake at work, and she's struggling to come to terms with it. Things go from bad to worse when Callie's cousin Dawn drags her to a community class about the secret to happiness. Happiness is the last thing Callie wants to think about right now, but instructor Bruno Bianco-a curiously gloomy fellow-is relentless. He has a way of turning Callie's thoughts upside down. Her feelings, too. Bruno insists that hitting rock bottom is the very best place to be. But if that's true, how is it supposed to help her figure out what-or who-has been missing from her life all along?
