Misadventures of a Frustrated Mob Princess
(Previously titled Dog Collar Cuisine)
Book 6
Big business might be ruthless, but Lucie Rizzo learned to take the heat from the best: her mob boss father. Except instead of cooking the books, she’s mixing up her next moneymaking expansion. But her BFF-turned-partner isn’t sold on the idea. Ro is the creative genius—not to mention the boobs—of their operation, but Lucie has the discerning business palate. And this venture smells like sweet success. All they need is the right investor.
French chef Antoine Durand made casseroles sexy again. His closely guarded secret recipe built a billion-dollar empire. He’s got the cred and the cash to turn Lucie’s dream into a reality. She gives him a taste of her proposal and Antoine’s about to bite, when a fire breaks out in his restaurant. And in the chaos, his priceless recipe is stolen.
The number one suspect? Lucie. Because a girl can’t shake her criminal connections in this town. She might be a mob princess, but she’s no thief. And she’s certainly no blackmailer. Someone has beef with the chef. The Rizzo crew needs to find out who, before Antoine puts Coco Barknell out of business…and Lucie behind bars.
This is another winner in the Lucie Rizzo Mystery series with a well-crafted plot that kept me glued to the book from beginning to end and enjoying every minute.
Any book in the Lucie Rizzo mystery series is always an enjoyable and entertaining read. The characters have great chemistry as they work together to solve the mystery. The story line is full of twists and turns but all is well in the end. Also love all the dogs! Great read.
