Marzipan and Murder
Page 10
“Just another week in Carmel Springs,” Millie said and accepted her candy-striped box.
The next customer in line stepped forward and was served, and the rhythm continued, people wandering off with their boxes, some not able to stop themselves from eating before they’d made it two steps.
That was exactly how I’d always wanted it to be. The food truck overflowing with business, people enjoying the food, and us meeting interesting people along the way. Although, we’d probably had more than enough ‘interesting’ to last us a lifetime.
After a long day on the truck, we arrived back at the guesthouse to find Sam outside, putting up Halloween decorations. Trouble danced around her feet, batting at a plastic skeleton leg.
“Need any help?” I called. “I love Halloween.”
“Oh, hello, ladies. I can use all the help I can get. I’ve got five new guests checking in for Halloween next week.”
Bee and I hurried over to help her, and as we hung up spooky streamers and put out paper lanterns decorated in ghosts and bats and dancing skeletons, I couldn’t help but feel that in a way, I’d found a place to call home. Even if it was temporary.

Thank you, Reader!
Thank you so much for reading Ruby and Bee’s story. If you enjoyed the book, I would be honored if you left a review. They’re basically the caramel filling of an author’s career. (I know, I should probably stop with the puns—ha!)
