Publisher's Summary

Everyone in Lake Eden, Minnesota, may have had their doubts, but at long last, Hannah Swensen is getting married!

Hannah is thrilled to be marrying Ross Barton, her college crush. And her excitement only grows when she learns he'll be able to join her on her trip to New York City for the Food Channel's dessert chef contest. They get a taste of the Big Apple before Hannah wins the Hometown Challenge and the producers bring all the contestants to Lake Eden to tape the remainder of the show.

It's nerve-wracking enough being judged by Alain Duquesne, a celebrity chef with a nasty reputation. But it's even more chilling to find him stabbed to death in the Lake Eden Inn's walk-in cooler - before he's even had a chance to taste Hannah's Butterscotch Sugar Cookies! Now Hannah has not only lost her advantage, she'll have to solve a mystery with more layers than a five-tiered wedding cake.

Plot took such a silly turn

19 books in and somehow a guy mentioned a handful of times is the one she marries? Knowing what happens to this marriage in a few books, I don't understand the point, aside from trying to extend the series and get more money... Feels like a slap from the author. Kristen Painter pulled the rug out in her Miss Frost triangle, difference here is that was done brilliantly. Expected better

Extremely disappointing

After reading these books for more than a decade, I'm sorry to say I'm very disappointed in this twist in the story line.

Disappointing

Any additional comments?

I've enjoyed this series of books, but the last two have been disappointing. I didn't like the turn that the story line took. I even dozed off during this one.

Disappointing!!!

Very disappointed with the ending. Still not happy with the whole Ross story. I was hoping he was the killer so he would leave the storyline.

not one of the better story lines

the dialogue in this was also pretty weak. more like simple banter back and forth than the usual easy but interesting conversation between Hannah and her family and friends.

the story was good I enjoyed the plot

was a good plot but Hannah is always made to look irresponsible when confronting the murderers. you would think by now she would know to take someone with her!

Wonderful Read!

This was what I've been waiting for and well worth the wait. I did want a little more at the end like all of the other books so I'm left feeling a little incomplete. I would've liked to heard about the reception ending with them going on their honeymoon which could have lead to another book where they are enjoying the honeymoon, come back home to get settled and there's another murder but, I'm not the author just an advisory reader of the authors work! I LOVE THIS AUTHOR AND SERIES!!!

Not the best one of the series by far

I've read all of the books in the series but I really haven't enjoyed the last few. I think Hannah has gotten a little boring and even her marriage to Ross hasn't helped.

Frustrating

The story is fine and I'm enjoying it but when I stop listening and come back to it later, the audio goes back to Chapter One and doesn't allow me to go to the spot where I stopped, Very frustrating!

Favorite one yet!

Excellent book and performance. It wasn't what I was expecting to happen. Good twists along the way.

Another great read!!

Loved it! I look forward to reading about Hannah's capers as a married lady, and the new recipes, too.
