Anna just wants to earn enough money on the side to buy into the bakery, Callie's Cakes, where she works together with her best nerd pal Callie. The last thing she expects to see when she walks into Arthur's apartment to do some moonlighting is a blood bath. Callie's ready to jump into the investigation into Arthur's murder, and she's bringing another bakery worker, Kristie, into their hijinks whether Kristie wants to or not. But things aren't as they seem. There are gang affiliations, illegal gambling dens, and ladies of the night to wade through. Will Anna and Callie discover who murdered Arthur or will Callie's detective boyfriend and Anna's self-appointed protector put a stop to such aspirations? Come join us at Callie's Cakes, where murder investigations are on the menu, but make sure to bring your own baker, because Anna's a bit preoccupied at the moment. Warning: This is NOT your mom's cozy mystery. Bring Your Own Baker may be a 'clean' read, but if gangs, illegal gambling, and pimps make you turn your nose up at your e-reader, you might want to skip this one. Although you'll be missing some sizzling chemistry between Anna and her protector. Not to mention a whole bunch of witty dialogue. No library descriptions found. |

Anna is a sassy little pixie with spiky pink hair, who works as a baker at her best friend Callie's bakery, Callie's Cakes. She has been working on the side doing finance and invoicing for her friend Arthur, a genius computer programmer / hacker, in order to get enough money together to buy into fifty percent of the bakery. When Anna goes to Arthur's apartment, she finds his door ajar and he is lying on the floor dead with his face covered in blood. Anna is determined to find Arthur's killer, so with the help of Callie, Ben (Callie's detective boyfriend), co-worker Kristie, and a hot undercover cop named Logan, Anna embarks on a murder investigation adventure to find the real killer.
Bring Your Own Baker is a thoroughly entertaining cozy mystery that will keep the reader in stitches. Written in the first person narrative, the reader follows the humorous trials and tribulations of Anna and friends latest amateur investigative adventures.
This was such a fun book to read! The reader can't help but get drawn into the quirky trials and tribulations and intriguing suspense that Anna and friends encounter during the murder investigation. I really enjoyed Anna's sassy humor and wit, she makes following her madcap adventure so much fun, and when you add in some romance with the hot undercover cop Logan into the mix, you get a delightful cozy mystery that will leave you wanting more!
I would be remiss if I didn't mention that I really loved how the author used very clever and intriguing step-by-step recipe ingredients to solving a mystery quotes at the beginning of each chapter.
Cozy mystery fans, I would highly recommend that you read the entertaining Death By Cupcake Series, you won't regret it!
