Celia lost her husband in a horrible accident, with his mistress, and decided she needed a fresh start so she moved from Ohio to Florida. Meeting hunky Dax, the owner of the local dive school, added bonus. Celia wants to open a new Cafe, with organic foods and teas, and with a few blunders along the way she achieves her goal. Liked this one, and found it hard to put down. Would recommend.

A fairly fast paced novel.

Celia is new in town - recently widowed and hoping for a new start by opening her cafe, Ambrosia. One of the first people she meets is Dax. He helps her out but he is also trying to run his dive shop and look after his ill father.
I didn't find the whole sub plot around the jewelery very interesting and it just distracted from the real story.

Ambrosia by the Sea was my first time reading Traci Hall and I think I am hooked. This was a great story of starting over and finding love in the process. Dax and Celia were genuine characters and easy to relate to and their circle of friends and family were amusing and real. I definitely recommend this book!
