Fondant Fumble

Cupcake Bakery Mystery, Book 16

De: Jenn McKinlay

Narrado por: Allyson Ryan

The Fairy Tale Cupcakes crew helps two professional football players in knead when the athletes are accused of murder and their dream of opening a bakery is crushed.

Professional football players Keogh Graham and Tyler Matthews want to open a Fairy Tale Cupcakes Bakery franchise. They're spending the off-season in Scottsdale working in Mel’s bakery, learning about the business and how to bake show-stopping cupcakes. The popular athletes bring a boom of customers to the store as football fans flock to see the brothers at work, mixing batter and piping icing.

Everyone's excited the athletes are pursuing their dream of owning a bakery—except for those who fear the players will ditch football for fondant and retire early from professional sports. The angry naysayers include their team owner, sports agent, and publicist, along with some very vocal fans.

When the owner of their team, the Arizona Scorpions, is found dead on the floor of their new bakery following an argument with Keogh, Keogh and Tyler become prime suspects. As the investigation heats up, Mel and the rest of the cupcake bakery crew must step up and prove their franchise owners are innocent before it's game-over for the new bakers.

New narrator

Why change the narrator after 15 books. We get invested in the characters and their evolving stories and then a new narrator pops up. Sounds nothing like the original. And completely ruins it for me.

New narrator not as good.

It’s not the same with a new narrator. The story was good but hard to listen to.

Where is Susan Boyce?

Hilary did a fantastic job, but Susan Boyce has been the voice of Mel and Angie for long it me a couple of chapters to adapt. I love this series and I can’t wait for the next one!

Nice story

While I enjoyed the story, it was difficult to get used to the new narrator. Sorry to the new person…. I really miss Susan Boyce. It just wasn’t the same.

Another Great Addition

I know the narrator is different from the other books in the series. Allyson Ryan narrates the other two series by Jenn McKinlay that I listen to. So, I easily adapted to the change. Love all the characters!
