Sugar and Iced

De: Jenn McKinlay

Narrado por: Susan Boyce

Normally, Mel and Angie wouldn't be caught dead at a beauty pageant, but when their bakery is asked to provide cupcakes for the 75th annual Sweet Tiara contest, they can't say no. Between cooking up a daily display for the three-day event and sponsoring a cupcake creation challenge for the participants, Fairy Tale Cupcakes will get great publicity.

A high-strung judge targets Lupe, a young friend of Mel and Angie's, at the competition, though, and aims to take her out - by any means necessary. When the same judge shows up dead underneath Mel and Angie's cupcake display, Lupe is crowned the lead suspect. Now Mel and Angie will have to find the real killer quickly - or Lupe may be strutting the catwalk in prison pinstripes....

Another sweet twist by Jenn McKinlay. Loved the suspense at then end. Can't wait to read the next one.

Complete delight!

I really didn't plan on getting hooked in what I thought was chic lit light. I'm so wrong! Jenn McKinlay has a real talent for fleshing out her characters and making them become part of the family that you can't wait to catch up with. She has skill in writing a delightful tale of intrigue and suspense which truly left me guessing until the very last page! I've really enjoyed this series and am hitting the next one in line as soon as this is submitted!

Sugar and Iced, and Everything (Not Always) Nice

What did you love best about Sugar and Iced?

I have loved every book in this series, and happened to find it on a whim. I say this every single time, but I feel like this may be on of my favorite in the series. In this book Mel and Angie are helping out with a beauty pageant. This is totally out of their comfort zone.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Sugar and Iced?

I loved the very end, but I cannot tell you why!

Which scene was your favorite?

I loved the entire cupcake process when Mel is making the cupcakes the contestants designed themselves. They sounded disgusting with a few exceptions.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Same as my review title - Sugar and Iced, and Everything (Not Always) Nice

Any additional comments?

You will be happy with this cozy mystery.
