I enjoyed reading Simmering with Resentment. The story takes place in Crystal Cove, CA. Jenna Hart owner of the Cookbook Nook and Nook Cafe is the main character. Jenna is part owner along with her aunt Vera Hart Jenna is engaged and planning her wedding to Rhett Jackson owner of Intime Restaurant. The supporting characters adds to the story. The town is busy with a .Bride's Dream Expo. Jenna finds out that Sarita Strachline has been released early from prison. She was sent there for burning down her restaurant The Grotto and left town with the insurance money and left Rhett to take the fall. Jenna got the police to open the case which lead to her arrest. When running into each other at the expo they have words. While getting ready at home a brick is thrown threw the window, Jenna suspects that Sarita did it. Jenna meets Rhett at the restaurant to make dinner together. While there a bomb goes off in the kitchen and Rhett is hurt. Jenna again suspects Sarita, There is a second explosion and Sarita is killed. Jenna and her friends try to figure out who bombed the restaurant and the boat and killed Sarita. This is where the reader is taken on a journey to the exciting and surprising end.

Thank you NetGalley and Beyond the Page for this ARC.
