5 Star Review of "Lemon Pies and Little White Lies"

Review of Lemon Pies and Little White Lies

by Ellery Adams

From the New York Times bestselling author of the Books by the Bay series and the Book Retreat mysteries--Includes pie recipes!

After Pecan Pies and Homicides comes another tangy slice of life—and death—in a charmed, and charming, small town...
 
Ella Mae LeFaye’s Charmed Pie Shoppe has become a phenomenon beyond her wildest dreams, providing the enchanted town of Havenwood, Georgia, with spellbinding desserts and magical pies. Her personal life is also heating up as she takes on the responsibilities of leadership within her magical community. In fact, the only thing weighing her down is the fact that handsome Hugh Dylan won’t return her calls…
 
Still, when Havenwood is rocked by a series of mysterious deaths, Ella Mae must put romantic longings aside—especially when she realizes that the mystical symbols left at each crime scene are dangerously personal. Now she will have to whip up all her supernatural skills to uncover a killer out to settle an ancient score—before the murderer devastates everything Ella Mae is determined to protect…

MY REVIEW:  This is my first book written by Ellery Adams and I am enchanted by her style and sense of fun.   This is a delectable, delicious, delightful book and it also has PIE RECIPES!  Yummy!    I love the way Ellery combined romance, baking, and mystery.  I quickly became enchanted with the main character, Ella Mae.   I could almost smell those wonderful treats she was baking in Charmed Pie Shoppe.  This book is full of fun, magical powers, delicious pies and lovable characters.  Of course, there is at least one character that you will love to hate as well.   That makes it even more fun, doesn't it?  

          I rate this book 5 stars and think readers will be enchanted too.

          I received a free print copy of this book from the author in exchange for my honest review.   All opinions are my own.
