#2 in the Beacon Bakeshop series - A bakery in a lighthouse (slightly haunted by a sea captain) in Beacon Harbor, MI. Lindsay is a Wall Street type turned baker, enjoying life in her new town with her Newfoundland puppy and her boyfriend, Rory. Her Christmas dreams are complicated by the need for baking help and the suddenly announced cookie bake-off. An icky celebrity judge and a murder cap it all off!
Between so-so and a pick ⬇️

mabell I didn‘t love it, but I‘m also pretty picky when it comes to cozies. (Well, any book for that matter 😆) I read it with my sister, and I wouldn‘t be opposed to reading others in the series with her. 12mo

A solid holiday cozy even though I knew the murderer pretty early on! All of the cookies that are described in the book sound scrumptious!

🎄🎄🎄 The perfect cozy holiday read. Naturally I couldn‘t read this without having a couple of Christmas cookies and coffee in my new B&N Christmas mug that my niece gifted me. A little longer than most cozies, and the murder didn‘t happen until over 100 pages in, I enjoyed this new to me series and I will definitely be looking for the next installment.

TheSpineView Excellant! 3y

Great series! I didn‘t read the first one, but had no problems catching up with the characters and the side storylines. This was fun and clever, with some very solid twists and red herrings. The recipes at the end are also very tasty sounding, and I liked that there were quite a few of them as opposed to just one or two. Looking forward to the next book!
