Premeditated Peppermint

Amish Candy Shop Mystery Series, Book 3

De: Amanda Flower

Narrado por: Rebecca Mitchell

Christmas is Bailey King's favorite time of year. For her first Yuletide in Harvest, Ohio, the former big-city chocolatier is recreating a cherished holiday treat: peppermint combined with molten white chocolate. But her sugar high plummets when her former boyfriend walks into the candy shop she now runs with her Amish grandmother.

New York celebrity chef Eric Sharp and his TV crew have arrived to film an authentic Amish Christmas. Bailey's not about to let her beloved town - and Swissmen Sweets - be turned into a sound bite. Unfortunately, she gets more publicity than she bargained for when Eric's executive producer is found strangled to death - and Eric's the prime suspect.

With Bailey's sheriff deputy boyfriend out to prove Eric's guilt, her bad-boy ex tries to sweet-talk her into helping him clear his name...and rekindle their romance to boost ratings for his show. Now, between a surplus of suspects and a victim who wasn't who she seemed, Bailey's edging dangerously close to a killer who isn't looking to bring joy to the world-or to Bailey-this deadly Noel....

Loved it!!

Sweet entertaining..suspenseful..
Love this series
I find this author absolutely delightful..
Please don’t stop writing

Great series

As usual, so fun to visit Holmes County, Ohio! This is one of my favorite mystery series, for a few reasons. Bailey is always growing and evolving and so does the story and what she wants to achieve. I like that it isn’t just someone going to work and finding a body constantly. Plus the town is always so heartwarming and I feel at home every time.

Sweet Story

The Amish Candy Shop Mystery Series is light and entertaining. The characters are engaging and interesting. The mystery is well developed and has an easy going pace. The only thing I don't like is that Bailey is a doormat. She let's herself get talked into things she doesn't want to do. She spends too much time making everyone else happy. I had to skip ahead on some parts because it was just too annoying. I like this series and will continue to read/listen to the books. I only wish Bailey had more of a spine.

“Shivers” way too much!

This author uses “shivers” way too much in each and every book on this series. Can you not use “made my blood run cold” or “made my spine tingle” or anything else that is different?

ANOTHER GREAT READ

LOVE THIS SERIES AND THE DEVELOPING CHARACTERS AND RELATIONSHIPS. BAILEY AND AIDAN AND ALL THE OTHERS. I HATED TO FINISH THIS BOOK ONLY BECAUSE I NOW MUST WAIT MONTHS FOR THE NEXT.

Cozy, cute, will leave you craving candy

I love listening to cozy mysteries and am always looking for new ones. I tried the second in this series and immediately got the next. The setting is interesting and the mystery is better than some (not obvious) and the narration is good. I took away one star for the writing because all the characters and the first-person narrator have a slightly stilted voice. Normal people use contactions. If it were just Amish characters (where English is a second language) that would be one thing, but the Englischer do it too, and in an audio book that gets grating.

It’s a good clean mystery

It’s engaging and way underrated. I like the characters and the fact that it’s clean.

I’m enjoying this series

I am very picky about ready, and listening, to books. I enjoy a wide array of genres, for relaxation and simple fun the genre if choice is a cozy mystery.

With the need to meet a veracious reading appetite like mine I find it more difficult each month to find books with quality. Well used grammar, spelling, multiple plot lines and good overall writing are the basics of what I enjoy.

I am happy to report the “Amish Candy Shop Mystery Series” mire than meets my basic requirements. The author, and narrator, both do well with their attempt to mix the American “Englisher” and the American “Amish Danish” culture and language differences.

If one is looking for an entertaining series of cozy mysteries to read, Amanda Fowler’s Amish Candy Shop Mysteries, is a good choice.

Interesting and Fun

I love this series! It is fun and keeps you guessing. This particular story dragged in a few places, for the first time I found myself - come on - dragging it out some here but overall it was good. Loved the addition to the live Nativity - was a cute addition!

Loved the storyline and characters

I enjoyed this book and look forward to more exciting stories. The narrator is amazing she makes all the characters so real and the story flows at a nice pace.
