Ella Mae LeFaye’s Charmed Pie Shoppe has become a phenomenon beyond her wildest dreams, providing the enchanted town of Havenwood, Georgia, with spellbinding desserts and magical pies. Her personal life is also heating up as she takes on the responsibilities of leadership within her magical community. In fact, the only thing weighing her down is the fact that handsome Hugh Dylan won’t return her calls…Still, when Havenwood is rocked by a series of mysterious deaths, Ella Mae must put romantic longings aside—especially when she realizes that the mystical symbols left at each crime scene are dangerously personal. Now she will have to whip up all her supernatural skills to uncover a killer out to settle an ancient score—before the murderer devastates everything Ella Mae is determined to protect…
Every now and then a series comes along that is so unique and individual, and you know it is going to be an instant hit. This is how I felt the first time I picked up Pies & Prejudice, the first book in the Charmed Pie Shoppe mystery. It was love at first read and I'm happy to report that my love for this series has never wavered. In fact with each book, I develop more affection for this uniquely wonderful cozy mystery series.
For those that haven't been introduced the wonders of the Charmed Pie Shoppe series it is set in Havenwood, around a special group of people. Magical people. For me the most magical is Ella Mae LaFaye, who uses her magic in her pies! Of course not everything that is magical is sunshine and rainbows and more often than not there is evil in the midst. As is the case in Lemon Pies and Little White Lies. When a dead body shows up , the signs point to someone that is out to get Ella Mae. The community must rally together to keep evil out and protect Havenwood.
For most series I will say that they can be read out of order. For the Charmed Pie Shoppe mysteries, I would strongly recommend reading them in order. It is not something you will regret. Within the first pages of Pies and Prejudice you will be in love and rushing to the bookstore for more of this series! All the characters and storylines build on each other and create for one of the most perfect reading experiences I have experienced in my years of reading cozy mysteries. This series is cozy mystery perfection, as it has a little of something for everyone - magic, adventure, history, murderous mayhem and a little romance!
I thoroughly enjoyed every page of Lemon Pies and Little White Lies and what I loved the most is that this book finished without a cliffhanger, but it does leave the readers with the promise of what might be in the next book.
Readers, take a trip to Havenwood. It will be a trip that you are going to take time and time again!
