Chincoteague Sunsets Trilogy

Will twelve chefs bring fame and fortune to Chincoteague Island and its restaurants, or will one jealous competitor bring infamy to them all? Holly Peterson, owner of the Sand and Sugar Café, is insecure about her abilities in the kitchen. Lorenzo D'Angelo feels unprepared to open his own restaurant, Speziato, on Chincoteague Island. Just as Holly and Lorenzo begin to have confidence in their eateries and themselves, celebrity chef, Gideon Randall, announces his new cooking reality show will take place on the island. Neighbor Vs. Neighbor will be a cooking show like no other, pitting all the chefs on the island against each other in a competition for TV's top prize in cooking - $300,000 and a year's worth of nationwide advertising during all Gideon's shows. As summer gets underway on Chincoteague, things heat up in the kitchen, at the resort where contestants are sequestered, and in the restaurants they've left behind. In a recipe that calls for the perfect combination of sugar and spice, sabotage becomes the main ingredient.

It's been five years since child prodigy, Molly McLane, solved the mystery of the island restaurant saboteur, and now she's all grown up and graduating from Harvard. With offers from every space agency and corporation in America, Molly has some big decisions to make, but all she wants is one last summer on the island to do what she never had the chance to-be a normal teenaged girl. But when danger visits the island once again, Molly finds herself in the middle of a mystery that has the potential to change her life or end it. Return to Chincoteague one last time to discover a world outside of space and time with stories filled with sugar and spice in a place of tranquility, where miracles exist, promises are kept, and hope prevails.
