Ivy Preston keeps other people’s
secrets for a living. When a small town mayor invites Ivy Preston and True
Thompson to move their businesses to Apple Grove, can their love survive the
sudden rise in crime?
After being left at the altar, Ivy
Amanda McTeague Preston uproots herself and her cat, an Egyptian Mau named
Memnet, from her boring and lonely life to start over at the urging of Mayor
Conklin, a fellow pedigreed Mau owner. Truesdale Thompson is ready to move in a
fresh direction with his life. A private man whose physical wounds are the only
outward sign of a tragic accident in his past, True and his cat, Isis, open a
branch of his trendy little bookstore and coffee shop in Apple Grove. When Ivy
takes a mysterious message while the mayor is away on business, only Ivy’s
criminology professor mom and True believe there’s something rotten in Apple
Grove. Can Ivy carry on her romance with True while saving the town from
further Mayhem?
“If you have a message of encouragement for these people, please speak.”
–Acts 13:15, NIV
