About Paws for Concern
Paws for Concern (A Canine Confections Mystery)
Life is good for Samantha Armstrong. She left her cheating boyfriend, settled into her cozy cottage on her Aunt Mary’s Palm Beach estate and is finally opening Canine Confections, her dream dog bakery on the ritzy Worth Avenue.
But Samantha’s happy new life goes doggone crazy when Palm Beach resident and pastry shop owner Whitney Goodwin is found dead on Canine Confections’ floor, whisking Samantha into the middle of a murder investigation. The only bright spot is that she finds herself adopting Whitney’s loveable dog Sweet Pea.
As the killer strikes again, it’s obvious that the shopkeepers on Worth Avenue are the target. Samantha’s impatience won’t let sleeping dogs lie. She takes it upon herself to move things along by padding around town with Sweet Pea and sniffing out clues to clear her name and Canine Confections’ reputation—before it is too late …
Includes a recipe from Chef Sarah Deters at the test kitchen of Three Dog Bakery, the original bakery for dogs!
What I Thought:
This is the first in the Canine Confection cozy mystery series. This story was a light read that flowed well and kept me turning the pages. Samantha has moved to Palm Beach and is opening her dog bakery, Canine Confection. On the day of the grand opening, fellow baker owner, Whitney is found dead in Samantha's shop. Samantha becomes the main suspect, and when another shop owner is attacked, Samantha takes the investigation into her own hands. This story was well written. The author did a very good job with setting descriptions, she made me feel as if I was really in Palm Beach. Character development was also great as Samantha is a great protagonist and Aunt Mary lends the story a breath of fresh air. But the Sweet Pea was the winner of greatest character. I enjoy a cozy that keeps me guessing till the very end and this one did just that. I look forward to more in this series.
I received a complimentary copy of this book.
