Welcome
back to Pike's Place Market in Seattle and the aroma-filled
series based around Pepper Reece, owner and proprietor, of
the Spice Shop. In this highly-entertaining installment we
find Pepper, busier than ever implementing a new Bridal Registry
in her shop, as her Mom drops in for an unexpected visit.
When an old friend from the past turns up in the Market and
then is discovered dead, Pepper strikes out to find the murderer.
As more family secrets come to light, the question becomes,
"has a family member or friend gotten themselves into
a situation that ended in murder to cover up a two-decade
old secret?".
I can
honestly say that this is one of my favorite series, as the
author is amazing and each book is better than the last! I
love the premise of this series and each book I read entices
my senses more and more with all of the spice and food talk,
making me savor every word. This series is filled with delicious
morsels; from the wonderfully-developed characters to the
equally entertaining story lines. I also love the relationship
between Pepper and her Ex, Tag. I love that Pepper is a 40-ish
year old woman striking out on her own and finding herself
again. But, is it bad that I am still rooting for Tag to win
Pepper over? This book also had something rare that most cozies
don't have, a mystery that I didn't figure out! Be sure to
pick up this book, or even better the entire series. You won't
regret it! Oh and don't forget to check out the yummy recipes
at the end of the book, they are mouth-watering like always!
