Southern hospitality meets deadly deception in the start of a charming new mystery series from the USA Today bestselling author of the Java Jive novels.
Synopsis:
Quinn Bellandini loves her life in Savannah, Georgia, where she runs her grandfather’s B&B with her sister, Delilah. From baking fresh scones and serving up grits every morning to ensuring the guests see the best of their historic city, Quinn can’t imagine doing anything else—even if it means dealing with nuisances like the occasional malfunctioning commode. But when Quinn drops by the local restaurant owned by her friend Drew Green, and stumbles upon a murder, her whole world comes crashing down.
Drew’s brother was always a little surly, but Quinn can’t imagine that someone disliked the prickly chef enough to kill him. The police, on the other hand, don’t believe that Quinn was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. Before her guests can even digest the next morning’s gourmet breakfast, Quinn learns that she and Drew are suspects.
Drew thinks they should do some investigating of their own. Quinn is pretty sure she’s better suited to playing hostess than amateur sleuth. But with Delilah as her cynical sidekick, Quinn starts looking for the real killer—before she gets put away faster than you can say “sugar.”
Review:
First- I have NO idea why the cover looks like the book is October/Halloween related, as it isn't! I'm not sure how it got thru the editing process, but definitely a pet peeve, as it might turn readers away from a fun read! This is a cozy mystery book, with plenty of viable suspects to keep you guessing, a little chick lit high school drama resolved romance to make you smile, and a relatable bond between sisters to keep you turning pages to see what happens to them next! it's a super quick read, as I finished it in under 2 hours! This is a fun series, and I hope to see more books featuring Quinn and Delilah! At only $4.99 for the ebook, this one is also a bargain, so don't miss it! Plus you get some yummie scone recipes too!
