Espresso Shot
Cleo Coyle
The latest in the steaming hot national bestselling
series— now in hardcover.
As manager and head barista of the landmark Greenwich
Village coffeehouse The Village Blend, Clare Cosi doesn't
get steamed up about much. But ever since her ex-husband
started planning his second wedding, she's been making some
vows of her own...
Clare's been hired to create a gourmet coffee and dessert
bar for a New York wedding to be held at the world-renowned
Metropolitan Museum of Art. Famous chefs will be there,
celebrities, members of the press, well-known
politicians—so why isn't she thrilled to have this
chance to shine? Because the person tying the knot is Matteo
Allegro, her ex-husband and current business partner. And
while Clare has no designs on ever marrying Matt again,
she's afraid he's making a terrible mistake.
The bride-to-be is Trend magazine editor Breanne Summour.
Beautiful, wealthy, and sophisticated, the snarky tastemaker
has never been a low maintenance kind of gal, and now she's
in full-blown bridezilla mode. The only way Clare can
possibly deal with her is to put her misgivings aside and
focus on business. But as a successful amateur sleuth,
murder is Clare's business, too, and when fatal accidents
begin befalling people close to Breanne, Clare becomes
suspicious. Is someone trying to sabotage this wedding? Even
kill Breanne?
Between persuading a sexy Italian sculptor into lending her
a one-of-a-kind fountain and roasting some of the rarest
coffee beans on earth, Clare starts to investigate. But what
she unveils, amid melted chocolate and steaming mochaccinos,
may just get her burned....
