Treat and Run

by: Emma Ainsley

Raised and Glazed - Book 5

  • Rating: full starfull starfull starhalf starstar outline (3.5/5)

Orson has hidden talents, the green-eyed monster is running amok and a flooded out event.

Myra is planning a Valentine's Day event and Orson is being grouchy. Cupid doesn't need an arrow with all of the green-eyed monsters running around. I think I missed that Brett has been married multiple times. The hit-and-run seemed to take a backseat at times. 

Happy Reading!

Plot Summary

Sometimes storm clouds can dampen even the most romantic holiday of all…
And so can murder.

It’s Valentine’s Day in Dogwood Mountain, Missouri and donut shop owner, Maggie Sharpe, has tasked one of her employees with the job of hosting their holiday celebration.
Things are going well until an unexpected storm hits the town and there’s a hit and run involving one of the guests at a local bed and breakfast, who was just at Maggie’s shop hours before.
When the storm causes flooding and the roads close, everyone is afraid that the Treats for the Sweet event will be a bust. Just when Maggie thinks her stress level can’t get any higher, it turns out that the hit and run is anything but accidental.
Struggling with a lack of suspects, Maggie casts a wary eye toward the object of her affection’s old flame, hoping that she’s not being overly biased, under the circumstances.
Hopeful that the clouds will clear, both literally and figuratively, and that the Treats for the Sweet event can be saved, she dives headfirst into investigating.
Sleuth alongside Maggie in Dogwood Mountain, where romance is in the air and murder is afoot in this delightful Culinary Cozy Mystery.
