A VILLA IN SICILY: ORANGE GROVES AND VENGEANCE is book #5 in a charming new cozy mystery series by bestselling author Fiona Grace, author of Murder in the Manor, a #1 Bestseller with over 100 five-star reviews (and a free download)!

Audrey Smart, 34, has made a major life change, walking away from her life as a vet (and from a string of failed romances) and moving to Sicily to buy a $1 home—and embark on a mandatory renovation she knows nothing about. She finds herself busy running the town’s new shelter, while also renovating her own problematic home—and dating again.

When Audrey gets a call to find an injured stray in an orange grove at an old estate, the last thing she expects to find is love. The estate owner is charming, handsomeand like no one she’s met before. Might he be a Mafiosi?

It seems like the surprises never end, until she finds one more thing on her way out of the grove: a dead body.

A laugh-out-loud cozy packed with mystery, intrigue, renovation, animals, food, wine—and of course, love—A VILLA IN SICILY will capture your heart and keep you glued to the very last page.

Book #6 in the series—CANNOLI AND A CASUALTY—is now also available!

    Too many holes in the plot and exasperatingly bad logic in the main character’s reasoning. The first four books in the series weren’t as bad. This one seems to have been written quickly, in one draft, with little or no editing. I’d like my money back on this one. I feel a bit ripped off.
  • Feeble minded heroine

    As always, amazing depictions of scenery and day-to-day life in Italy. Good writing and decently-paced murder-mystery. A little too much angsty-romance for my taste. Can be read as a standalone since this was the first I read from this specific series from this author. I’ll definitely be going back to book 1 to get the full picture. Looking forward to the next book! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
