Hired by a national magazine to pen a piece on the Midwest culinary scene, he brings his appetite for a scoop to a small river town’s food convention. But he’s forced to put his story on the backburner when a suspicious fire claims two innocent lives… After the blaze is ruled accidental, the ambitious journalist isn’t convinced and vows to search for the truth. And with his scheming rival out to steal his article, and a bitter feud between an ice cream maker and a chocolatier heating up, if he’s not careful he may lose more than his lucrative engagement.
