Brownies and Broomsticks

Title: Brownies and Broomsticks
Author: Bailey Cates
Published: May 1st 2012 by Signet
Format: Paperback, 323 pages
Genre: Magical Cozy Mystery
Series: Magical Bakery Mystery #1

I stumbled across this book by chance and I think I have found a new series to follow. Both the people and the place of downtown Savannah are charming. Katie Lightfoot and her newly discovered talents are delightful and when the Honeybee Bakery, owned by Katie’s aunt and uncle, is the center of a murder, Katie and her newfound friends bring their special talents to the rescue.

When I say special talents, it turns out Katie’s family has been keeping a secret and now that Aunt Lucy is there to guide Katie, with the use of a few spells, the ladies and their friends will soon be able to clear her uncle’s name and the coven can return to their usual do-gooder activities.

Obviously, it wouldn’t be a traditional cozy mystery without a love interest, but this is where things get a little complicated for Katie since there are two men in her life. Not sure where either relationship will go, but along with Katie, I am interested in seeing the possibilities.

Next book in the series: Bewitched, Bothered, and Biscotti

About the Author: Bailey Cates also writes under the name Bailey Cattrell and is the author of the Enchanted Garden Mystery Series
