This author keeps bringing up serious subjects and does a poor job at it. Her main character is way too tolerant of hate filled people and it’s tiring to read. I think I made a similar content before about one of her books and then took a break. I need to just stop reading her books. I hope you’re a better person than your main character. Cause that whole having a Black best friend is laughable when on the flip side you do nothing to protect or stand up for them.

Welcome to South Link, Indiana. We will go to Pans ’N Pancakes cafe for a bite to eat. Robbie Jordan owns and runs the cafe, store and B & B. A house fire in town reveals a human skeleton in the attic. The body was of a woman who had gone missing years ago. Then a murder occurs. Mix in an adopted man looking to met his mother, sister and grandmother plus social issues of the day for truly enjoyable read which includes antics, interesting characters and lots of mouthwatering foods. This is book # 8 in the Country Store Mystery series. It can be read as a stand alone effortlessly. I volunteered to read Candy Slain Murder. Thanks to Kensington Publisher via NetGallery for the opportunity. My opinion is voluntary and my own.
