Thankfully things even out and the story becomes more real. It took time to get past the issues in the beginning of the book.

I distracted from the important details in my opinion. I also thought the addition of the recipes meant the story need not have to contain as many cooking details when the character was having conversations. I do not cook and was not so into them, it would have been nice to skip that option. I would have liked it better if they all lined up with chapter/section breaks. I adore the energy she adds to the read! The other thing that was a touch disconcerting were the recipes throughout the book. The men could have been a touch deeper, but were distinct and easy to discern who was speaking.

The other voices were consistent throughout the read. There is the perfect touch of sass in her voice to really compliments the lead character and feel of the story. She has a great pace in the read that really keeps the story moving. I listened to the audiobooks narrated by Pamela Almand, who is terrific.

Loved her friends Honey and Lenny, always great to have a hacker on hand! Sean is a delicious player and Jack has hunky Alpha written all over him! I also enjoyed the interactions with the detective. Definitely things to watch in the future of the series. I count at least three romantic prospects in the mix. Whatever, it was silly but not so far as to turn me off the book. She met the chick for like five minutes and exchanged a handful of sentences.

The whole premise of why Tess thought she would be a suspect was beyond unreal. I really thought I knew who the murderer was, turns out I was way off base! I really enjoyed the end, unfortunately it took a stretch to get past the beginning. The overall mystery was intriguing, some parts were super obvious but it did surprise me in the end. She is mostly joined by her BFF Honey, another sassy gal! I loved this pairing because it really helped give a sounding board for the progress of the case. I generally liked the lead character Tess, she is spunky and upbeat and way to curious for her own good! Perfect for a cozy mystery. There were things I really liked and things I was not so keen on. I really enjoy cozy mysteries, the cooking genre is a touch different than my norm.
