I gained a few literal pounds while reading this one, and honestly, it's just an enjoyable read filled with some great moments. Olivia is a wonderful foil for the trio, and the antics sometimes remind me a bit of the Stephanie Plum series. I love how he's described and fits into the overall mold in the series. Oz, a new intern for their shop, steals the show in this book. Angie's got her own boyfriend issues, tho she's destined to be with Tate. I love the sibling drama with Angie's family - 7 brothers, oh my! Mel is dating one of them, but he seems pretty normal compared to the rest. Who wanted to win so badly (s)he killed to get the prize? In this installment, bakery owners Mel and Angie, plus their financial backer and bestie Tate, enter a Food Channel cooking competition where an arch rival shows up as well as several former friends and classmates from cooking school. The writing style is perfect for the cozy sub-genre and all the recipes will make your mouth water. Light, easy-to-read, reachable setting and characters, and fun dialog are the primary reasons to give them a chance. I've read a few of the author's other series plus the first two in this one. Death by the Dozen is the 3rd book in the Cupcake Bakery Mysteries written by Jenn McKinlay. ![]()
