When Lucy Winters inherits her great-aunt's fudge shop on charming Mackinac Island, she's certain it's a recipe for disaster. Fresh from a marketing career meltdown in Chicago, Lucy knows nothing about making fudge, managing a small business, or navigating life on a quaint island where cars are forbidden and gossip travels faster than the horse-drawn carriages. Her plans to sell the shop and return to city life are upended when she discovers an ornate antique brooch hidden in a secret compartment--a brooch connected to Prohibition-era bootlegger legends and rumored island treasure. When the brooch is stolen and a prominent summer resident is found dead near Arch Rock, Lucy finds herself in the center of a mystery nearly a century in the making. With help from her quirky summer employees--dramatic Mia, culinary wizard Zoe, and observant Tyler--Lucy dives into her great-aunt's mysterious past. But she's not searching alone. Handsome bike shop owner Jake Miller, whose family has lived on the island for generations, offers local knowledge and irritatingly appealing charm. Meanwhile, sophisticated lawyer Ethan Hayes provides legal expertise and distracting dimples. As Lucy juggles romantic tension and fudge-making disasters, she uncovers island secrets that powerful people want to keep buried. With wit, warmth, and a cast of delightfully eccentric islanders, "Sweet Secrets on Mackinac Island" serves up the perfect summer getaway--where historic mysteries, modern romance, and delicious treats await around every corner of this car-free paradise.
