What others are saying 

With a quirky population of characters who have known each other for many years, this small town cozy is full of surprises.

What a great start to a new cozy series. I loved the characters, the town, and the writing style.

Character Guest Post

Welcome to Leavensport, Ohio where Death takes a Delicious turn!

One year into co-owning my dream restaurant, Cast Iron Creations, with my best friend Ava, finds me smack in the face of a murder investigation. Trust me; the last thing I want to do is be investigating. I’m shy and introverted and feel most comfortable in the kitchen in the back of our eatery. Ava, on the other hand, is bold in appearance and personality and runs the front of the shop. When we find Leavensport’s beloved Ellie Siler, who is also my grandma’s best friend, dead in the alley in the back of our eatery we have no choice to be involved. Then, my grandma becomes a prime suspect as the police think she killed Ellie because our family’s secret recipes were never ours to begin with. My family, reputation, and business are all at stake. 

And I thought

 I loved the idea/concept of this book/series.  This the first in the series and  sets the stage for some fun reading and a bit of mystery. 

When it comes out that the owner(s) of the famous recipes are bogus it's a let down for everyone. 

It's a bit of a 'let down' also for Jolie when her best friend Ava  and co-owner announces she just might be moving away from town. 

Ava has a few other secrets she's never shared with Jolie that kind of made me a little less than enthralled with the whole idea. 

But, as I turned the pages I became taken in with this fun and cozy mystery.  

I would like to have found a few more recipes but with all the drama over them maybe we'll get a few more in book 2. 

I really liked the cover on this one and I enjoyed the fun and Cozy read and look forward to book 2. 

I received a complimentary copy. 

My review will appear on retail sites and Good Reads.
