Book one: Apple Pie and Trouble

Meghan Truman always had a dream to become a Hollywood actress. Hollywood decided she wasn’t good enough. She left Hollywood broken, but with a burning desire to start afresh in the Pacific Northwest, pursuing her second dream - opening a bakery.

She never expected that the owner of a rival establishment would be found dead and that all eyes would be focused on her as the prime suspect. As the new girl in town with a new bakery store, she’s determined to clear her name and find the murderer; otherwise, she’ll have to leave Sandy Bay penniless and pitiful and possibly the murderer’s next victim.

Book two: Brownies and Dark Shadows

When Sandy Bay’s crème de la crème congregate to raise money for charity, Meghan Truman is proud to have her tasty desserts the talk of the party. She’s not so proud when the wealthiest couple in Sandy Bay are discovered dead and rumors circulate around town that her brownies are the cause of this tragedy.

This murder case casts a dark shadow over Meghan’s budding romance with handsome officer Irvin, who’s disappointed that she’s once again at the center of another murder investigation. With everything to lose, Meghan must work hard to clear her name, restore broken relationships, and solve this murder mystery before everything she’s worked so hard to build comes crumbling down.

Book three: Cookies and Buried Secrets

When a beautiful stranger sashays into a birthday party, Meghan Truman, along with other guests, is surprised to discover her relationship to the birthday celebrant. This beautiful stranger attracts more shady characters to Sandy Bay. When one of these characters is found dead in an alley, the whole town is set on edge.

Will Meghan’s attempt to link the owner of a golden antique gun to the murder prove helpful to handsome officer Irvin’s investigation? Or, will the discovery of a buried secret lead to more murders?

Book four: Donuts and Disaster

Meghan Truman’s relationship with her assistant is severely tested when she becomes prideful over a donut recipe she’s introduced to Truly Sweet’s menu. Matters are further worsened when a distant relative of this assistant, with selfish intentions and bad manners, is found dead in the town center.

The local handyman is arrested and put in jail when several witnesses confirm they saw him having an altercation with the murdered victim. Handsome detective Irvin and Meghan believe he’s innocent, but the evidence against him is too damning to overlook.

Will Meghan’s attempt to give her assistant a second chance at restoring their relationship backfire, or will a determination not to harbor unforgiveness in her heart lead her to the true murderer?

VERY ENJOYABLE

27 hours of murder mystery after murder mystery. This 14 book boxed set is a bargain and l recommend the stories and narration as easy to listen to, clean, interesting mysteries.

Creative Series

I enjoyed the tying in of the characters throughout the series. The characters were fun and full of life! Each book in the series was creative and well presented. The series was entertaining and a lighthearted way to pass the time!

Ok don’t love it

It’s ok but nothing special. Lots for the price but just so so. I’ll finish but not recommend.

Characters were too fake

The story was very simple as well as the vocabulary. The characters too sugary & fake. The performance was just as fake. I have already purchased the next set in the series so I will listen to it but it's not likely that I'll any more from this author.

Suspenseful

What an amazing story. Suspense, intrigue and strong characters that come alive with the Narrator’s voice. Will the murder be solved. Can’t wait for more.

Nice, but needs work.

Stories were somewhat predictable. Needs serious audio editing throughout. They are nice, light, cozy listens.

Juvenile stories. Great if you're 10

This collection of short stories are fun, but simple.  I think that they are written for 10 year-old kids.  But I enjoyed them just the same.  Fun stories.   

Great series!

I really wasn't sure when I started this series. The narration was really good, so I stuck with it. By the 3rd book, I was wanting more. I just downloaded the next set in the series.

Meghan offers treats and mystery

Sandy Bay Cozy Mystery Series Books 1-14 is a wonderful series by Amber Crewes. Elena Marino is outstanding as the narrator. I will say that I have read all of the books in this series and I love them. I think that I enjoy listening to the audio books as much as reading the series. Amber Crewes writes exceptional cozy mysteries that have humor, a good mystery, and enjoyable characters. Each book builds Meghan’s story and her relationship with the handsome Detective Irvin. I was excited that this book set is over half of the books in the series which is a great bargain. I enjoyed over 29 hours of great audio listening.

Wish i hadn’t wasted a credit

Really slow. Narrator was overly dramatic. Almost childlike voices chanting sing song oh no not me.
