Eclair and Present Danger


Eclair and Present Danger by Laura Bradford - ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Description from the Publisher

The first book in the delicious new Emergency Dessert Squad Mystery series from national bestselling author Laura Bradford.

With her rent rising faster than her pie crust, bakery owner Winnie Johnson had hoped to be rescued by an inheritance from her wealthy friend and neighbor Gertrude Redenbacher. Instead all she inherits is the widow’s hostile hissing tabby, Lovey, and a vintage ambulance, restored by Gertrude’s late husband. As her dream crumbles, Winnie makes her final delivery—a peach pie to an elderly widower. But she finds Bart Wagner lying on his kitchen floor, smothered by a pillow.
 
To comfort her frightened and grieving neighbors, Winnie comes to the rescue with her baked goods—and an idea is born: dessert delivery via her ambulance and a new business called the Emergency Dessert Squad. When she’s not speeding to the scenes of dessert emergencies, Winnie is also racing to track down Bart’s killer—before she needs to call a real ambulance for the next victim…

My Review

Page Count: 304
Genre: Mystery, Cozy Mystery
Series:Emergency Dessert Squad Series

This is a cute start to this series. I really liked the characters, and I can definitely relate to Winnie. My only "complaint" is that this seemed to be less mystery focused and more focused on Winnie's business and romantic relationships. The end was very rushed and concluded quickly.
