She is a divorcee that suspects the new ice cream man might be selling more than ice cream from his truck. He is an undercover cop watching the frazzled mom that is the prime suspect in a check-kiting case. Neither expects for a love connection and a sweet romance to occur while uncovering the secrets about each other.

While this book was originally written in 1988 and newly released on ebook, it still stands the test of time. I enjoyed the whimsy characters (her neighbors are a bunch of fun-loving snoops and gossips), the unexpected attraction and romance, and the touch of mystery.

I had no idea that Eileen Dreyer, an author I have enjoyed reading in the past, also writes under the name of Kathleen Korbel. What a happy surprise to be offered a romance written by her in 1988! Now, when reading a book from decades before it is wise to remember that life and romances were different then and books written will reflect that. That said…I thoroughly enjoyed this book :) The story took me back to a simpler time when doors were often left unlocked, women were more often stay at home mom’s and ice cream trucks visited neighborhoods where I lived.

Jenny Lake is scraping to make ends meet for herself and her two young children. Her wealthy ex-husband is a deadbeat dad living the highlife with his new wife and delinquent in child support payments. Into Jenny’s life comes The Ice Cream Man, Nick. Nick is fantasy material for Jenny but a hot questionably drug dealing conversational item among the women of Jenny’s neighborhood. Nick is not what he appears to be on the surface…nope…not at all. As the story progresses Nick and Jenny get to know and begin to fall for one another. They have ups and downs and interesting things happen that I found thoroughly enjoyable.

Thank you to eBook Discovery for the copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review. ( )

Light and fun! A little too much "being a mom" is the best! But makes you smile.

Description: Divorcee Jenny Lake suspects the new ice cream man, Nick Barnett, is selling more than bompops off his truck. The neighbors think Nick is dealing drugs.

Nick fears Jenny is more than the frazzled mom of two she portrays, as all evidence makes her suspect number one in his check-kiting case.

Of course, Nick also knows a cop should never fall in love with his suspect. And a man who can't tolerate kids shouldn't love a woman who wants a houseful. But somehow he keeps forgetting as he does everything possible to prove the evidence wrong.
