À propos de cet audio
After Lindsey Bakeswell catches her celebrity chef fiance sizzling in the arms of another woman, Lindsey leaves big city Wall Street for small town Beacon Harbor, Michigan, to pursue her own passion as a pastry baker - and gets mixed up in someone's sweet taste of revenge....
More interested in kneading dough than adding it up, Lindsey's breakup inspired her to set up the shop she always wanted in a place that always made her happy. She'd spent many childhood summers near this beach community and converting the old run-down lighthouse into a bakery cafe and home offers a perfect fresh start for Lindsey.
But not everyone in town has a sweet tooth. The preservation society won't have the lighthouse's history sugar coated by lattes and cakes - and a protest group crashes Lindsey's Memorial Day opening. Then her ex-fiance Jeffrey Plank and his girlfriend Mia Wong arrive to trash the place. In the ensuing chaos Mia chokes on a donut and dies.
An autopsy reveals cyanide in Mia's bloodstream and Lindsey is the police's prime suspect. To clear her name, she's going to need to combine ingredients found in the town's checkered past to uncover the identity of a desperate killer....

what is this?
I'm a lover of cozy mysteries, but I like my cozy mysteries similar to the old British mystery TV shows like midsomer murderers or Father Brown, where there's a small intro, then boom, there's a murder and the entire story revolves around finding the murderer.
This book started like a Hallmark romance rather than a cozy mystery. it made me cringe, and it was laughable. I rolled my eyes so many times within the first 1, i couldn't for the life of me, keep reading.
Phrases like " thanks to my ex. , I'm attracted to good looking men who moan when eating my baked goods". or "his moan made me weak in the knees. I almost dropped the tray..." what the Frick? What does this have to do with the murder? What does this have to do with building up to the murder? absolutely nothing, just fluff to make the book longer. one of my biggest pet peeves, who needs to listen to an nearly 9 hour cozy mystery? i prefer cozy mysteries that are less than 5 hours that way, it doesn't include all this unnecessary fluff that doesn't add to the story, doesn't add to the characters, doesn't add to the murder. Doesn't add to the plot. It's just words on a page that mean nothing and wastes time.
This book rubbed me the wrong way from the beginning, so to even say that it ended up or continued in a typical cozy mystery manner? I haven't the slightest clue because I stopped less than an hour in.
The novel opens with the main character Lindsay, in a cab and she's upset at the cabby because he's laughing, knowing that she has been had and she thinks if she is disrespectful and makes him feel small and inconsequential, it'll make her feel better about the fact that she was stupid and though she's supposedly a super-intelligent financier from New York City, and can make a lot of money and style really well. ( her words).
She's stupid enough to buy property without viewing it i person and believed 100% of what the realtor who is selling said property said in the listing. BUT, upon arriving after quitting her job in New York, moving to this small town and seeing that this dream shop was all a lie. She believes she can lash out instead of taking ownership of her horrible decision-making.
None of this needed to be in this book, it could have all been
Part of a tiny conversation or a tiny memory that lasted no more than 2 sentences somewhere in the book. unnecessary fluff.
I can't remember if have listened to this narrator before. And maybe it was the writing style and the book, but even she couldn't make this book better and her voice started to grate on my nerves as well.
