Synopsis:
For the past year, Dru has put everything she has into building a catering business with her sisters. She’s so used to working until all hours of the night with them by her side, that when they both find love and move out, Dru decides to focus on something that has always weighed on her… finding the father who’d abandoned them.
For the past year, Mick has been living the good life. A content bachelor with his own business as a private investigator, he enjoys making his own decisions and answering to no one. When a couple of clients-turned-friends bring him in contact with Dru, his first thought is that he wouldn’t mind getting her alone for a night, but when she hires him, that spark is extinguished. Mick doesn’t mix business with pleasure.
When their lives become constantly entwined, Dru becomes more and more determined to get Mick to break his rules. Will they discover that even a seemingly perfect dish, can be made better with the right amount of spice, or are they too set in their ways?
EXCERPT:
I shot a couple longing looks at Mick, who managed to make that suit look incredible, even though I’d just seen him in it at Tasha’s wedding. How come men could do that? Buy one suit to wear to every event, and get no flack, while if women got caught wearing the same dress repeatedly, it was like there was something wrong with her?
Why couldn’t I find the perfect dress … one that made me feel sexy, comfortable, and confident, and wear it to everything?
Stupid double standards.
I walked straight to the bar and ordered a Lemon Drop with the sole intention of getting drunk, and made a list of rules for myself.
You will not fawn over Mick.
You will not get so drunk that you throw up.
You will be the funny, fun, party sister, not the green with envy, bitter, crying in the corner sister.
And, again, you will not fawn over Mick. He made his policy clear, and I had too much pride to go after a man who didn’t want me.

“She’s more than just a client, 5 stars”
A Splash of Vanilla is the conclusion of the Three Sister’s series and I have been waiting for Dru’s story for what felt like forever. Lopez gave us readers what we wanted by putting these two together and even managed to give us a surprise or two. All I will say is I hope this isn’t the last we see of the Three Sisters crew.
Dru never dealt with her father taking off on them when they were kids. She was too busy being strong for her mother and two sisters. Now her mother is gone, and both of her sisters are moving on and settling down leaving her feeling unsettled. She hires Mick to track her father down, so she can finally say what’s been on her mind for years but at the end she gets so much more.
Mick is perfectly content with his life. When Dru comes on his radar he can’t help but be attracted to her, but he has rules. Rules that he’s tempted to break. Will he break his rules and fall for Dru or will he keep her at arm’s length? One thing is for sure life is about to get a whole lot more complicated.
I think the thing I loved most about Dru and Mick was the fact that when they decided to get together they truly jumped all in and didn’t waver. Then there is Mick’s mom who was a complete hoot along with everyone else. Lopez did a fantastic job writing A Splash of Vanilla and I hope you will enjoy it.
