Truffles By The Sea by Julie Carobini
I am not going to be able to review this book until after summer for Book Buzz due to already scheduled awesome interviews. But I just finished this book and if you are looking for a fun summer time read, THIS IS IT. It is laid back, fun, and has a message. Travel to the sea with Gabby Flores.
Gabby Flores watched her apartment building burn down, discovered her delivery guy has taken off with most of her business, and she has the knack of dating Mr. Wrong. The only way to go is up, right?
From the suggestion of her friend she moves to a waterfront loft and works to rebuild her life. But just when she thinks things can not go wrong she finds her self in the middle of a lawsuit, dealing with a nosey neighbor that gets in everyone’s business, and a Don Juan of landlords. Where is the Lord when everything seems to be going so wrong? And is she destined to be single for the rest of her life. Maybe “happily-ever-after” is not for her.
Truffles By The Sea was so delightful to read. It is a perfect, “take to the beach” kind of book, or just reading it you feel like you are escaping to the beach. I usually don’t care for chick-lit kind of books, but this Julie Carobini has made me a fan of hers. I will be looking for more books to come.
My only complaint while reading this book is I read it while trying to diet and I was constantly hungry for brownies and truffles!!
