Hilarious whodunits that will keep you listening well into the night. This USA Today best-selling box set contains the first four books in the Lexy Baker Culinary Cozy Mystery series.

This set includes the first four books in the Lexy Baker Cozy Mystery series:

Killer Cupcakes

Lexy Baker has finally opened her dream bakery, gotten rid of her cheating boyfriend, and settled into her grandmother's house with her perky dog, Sprinkles, at her side. Things are going great...until her ex-boyfriend is found poisoned with cupcakes from her bakery.

Suddenly Lexy finds herself in the middle of a murder investigation headed up by her hunky neighbor detective, Jack Perillo, who figures her for the killer. Lexy takes it upon herself to find the real killer aided by a gang of iPad-toting, would-be detective grandmothers.

As things heat up between Lexy and the hunky detective, the real killer closes in, and there's only one question to be answered - will Lexy get her man?

Dying for Danish

When Lexy Baker stumbles over the body of her high-paying catering client, she finds herself in a race against time to find the killer. Aided by four iPad-toting amateur detective grandmas, her best friend, and her little dog, Sprinkles, Lexy finds the suspect list growing at every turn.

To make matters worse, the investigation is headed up by her hunky neighbor, Detective Jack Perillo, who she had been hot and heavy with - until he mysteriously stopped calling her several weeks earlier. Add in a handsome rich suspect, an angry gold digger ex-girlfriend, and a suspicious son, and you'll see that Lexy has her work cut out for her.

Murder, Money, and Marzipan

Lexy's off to Las Vegas to compete in the prestigious Bakery Battles where, you guessed it, she stumbles over another body. But not just any body. Contest judge Amanda Scott Saunders has been strangled with Lexy's apron. The local police soon discover Lexy had means, motive, and opportunity, and Lexy must enlist the aid of her grandmother to help clear her name.

3 Bodies and a Biscotti

The bodies are piling up at the Brook Ridge Falls Retirement Center. Healthy people are dropping like flies. And yet, no one believes a murderer is on the loose...except for Lexy Baker and the troupe of iPad-toting grandmothers who live at the center.

When Lexy’s detective boyfriend, Jack, refuses to believe that foul play is involved, Lexy has no choice but to find the killer on her own. Along with Nans and her gang of iPad-toting, mystery-solving grandmas, they use everything from hypnosis to high-tech gadgets to track down the killer.

Cooking up murder

This is a fun series of books with Lexie Baker and her grandma Nan and her group of murder solving ladies from the senior center. A lot of specialty baking with murder dumped in to make things interesting.

pleasant read

All the stories were interesting but predictable. They were also very PG. But relaxing for a bedtime read! Thank you.

FUN!!

WHAT A GREAT TIME!! THESE BOOKS ARE SO ENTERTAINING! SO DELIGHTFUL! LOOKING FORWARD TO FINDING MORE!

Nice cozy mystery

Enjoyed the book immensely. Love the narrator. Both came together in a wonderful story. The boxed set was a bonus!

Comfy Cozy ♥️

Loved this boxed set! The story flowed nicely and the characters were well constructed. Highly recommended​.

perfect cozy mysteries

The books in this set, 1-4, are just mystery enough, character development is good, humor and bakery delights all rolled into a very enjoyable listening experience. Loved them.

Predictable as others say but cozy enough to kill the time

I liked the narrator in another series but did not find her a good fit for this story. Lack of character development and lackluster storylines won’t be bringing me back for the next set of books.

If a 12 year old boy was going to write a story...

I was enjoying the stories at first. It's an easy stress free listen. Except for the really out of place parts that distracted me making me wonder who was writing these books and who they were for. I determined it must be 12 year old boys talking about what they think grown ups are like. All the women are pretty and crave sex. A women who is a size 8 is fat. Farts are really funny. It's cool to hypnotize your trusting friend and make them quack like a duck. Women are really emotional and worry that you're mad at them all the time. ... Seriously there is farting and quacking. You've been warned.
It's not bad, just odd and child like.

Enjoyable

Glad these were put together in a box set because I usually filter out books of short duration. These are the classic cozy mystery. In the first book the main character seems a little unwise but the rest are better. If you are looking for a classic cozy mystery these are perfect, some mystery and a little bit of romance.

Love the box sets !

This was a very cozy mystery. Super easy listening not anything overly complicated. It’s great for driving home from work to just one down. I really like the stories and I like and enjoyed the narration.
