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?

Wish i hadn’t wasted a credit

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

Nice, but needs work.

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

Excellent

What a wonderful way to spend a few hours. Lighthearted mysteries to keep you listening. The narrator definitely makes you feel as if you’re a part of the story. Loved them all.
