Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

A romantic seven-day cruise is the perfect start to bakery owner Hannah Swensen’s marriage. However, with a murder mystery heating up in Lake Eden, Minnesota, it seems the newlywed’s homecoming won’t be as sweet as she anticipated . . . After an extravagant honeymoon, Hannah’s eager to settle down in Lake Eden and turn domestic daydreams into reality. But when her mother’s neighbor is discovered murdered in the condo downstairs, reality becomes a nightmarish investigation. Victoria Bascomb, once a renowned stage actress, was active in the theater community during her brief appearance in town . . . and made throngs of enemies along the way. Did a random intruder murder the woman as police claim, or was a deadlier scheme at play? As Hannah peels through countless suspects and some new troubles of her own, solving this crime—and living to tell about it—might prove trickier than mixing up the ultimate banana cream pie . . .

    Disappointing

    Hannah Swensen was my first introduction to modern cozy mysteries around 16 years ago. I wasn't pleased with the conclusion of the love triangle, but I kept reading. I wanted to give Ross a chance.

    However, I really didn't care for this book. For two thirds of the novel, Hannah seems preoccupied with trying to keep Ross satisfied. What will Ross think? Will Ross approve? Then, the book ended on a cliffhanger. I'm very disappointed.
