A magic cupcake. A culinary killer. The perfect recipe for murder. 
 
Wren knew her sweet treats could work wonders, but she never knew they could work magic. She barely has time to wrap her head around the stunning revelation when the head of the prestigious Confectioner’s Guild falls down dead before her. Poisoned by her cupcake.
 
Now facing murder charges in a magical world she doesn’t understand, Wren must discover the true killer or face the headsman’s axe. With the help of a handsome inspector and several new friends, Wren just might manage to learn the ropes, master her new powers, and find out who framed her. But when their search for clues leads to a deep-rooted conspiracy that goes all the way to the top, she realizes that the guild master isn’t the only one at risk of death by chocolate.
 
If Wren can’t bring the powerful culprit to justice, she and her friends will meet a bittersweet end.

    I loved this book! It was a little slow in the beginning and I thought kind of disjointed but, it all came together in the end! Loved it!
  • Murder/mystery/romance with subtle use of magic

    A worthy entry in an indie fantasy series with a strong thread of mystery/murder and a moderate degree of romance. I enjoyed the interesting twist with food magic, although magic is used rather sparingly to keep it fresh for future books. The main characters are interesting and reasonably complex with the exception of the irresistible, womanizing hunk. There is also the standard nasty beautiful girl, thankfully with very limited exposure. I was glad that the romance element was kept under control for the most part, although the author did resort to the old standby of an “unlikely couple rapidly falling in love.” I enjoyed this book and I have already purchased the next book in the series.
