Summary: Hot Crime in the Cold Winter
Review: Lee McKinney is handling her first winter in Michigan rather well for a Texas gal. She insists that the cold won't slow her down. What does stop her in her tracks is the sudden appearance of her ex-stepson, Jeff. Sullen and refusing to discuss why he's there, Aunt Nettie offers him a temporary job at TenHuis Chocolade.

Meanwhile, the town is getting ready for a teddy bear promotion to try to attract winter visitors. Lee and Nettie have borrowed some antique chocolate molds to decorate the shop. But then the shop is broken into late at night and a murder takes place. Are the two related? Why did Jeff sneak out of the house both nights? And, most importantly, can Lee clear him of murder?

The second in this cozy series will delight fans of the first. The author does a great job of reminding us of the characters and building on their personalities. It helps to read them in order, but with the backgrounds offered, not completely necessary. The mystery had several facets that kept me confused, but overall it could have been a little more complex.

Anyone who enjoys light mysteries will enjoy this series as well. But a word of warning. The descriptions of the chocolate might send you to your local candy store for a quick fix.

Summary: Too Sweet
Review: This book is too sweet for my taste. Former Texas Beauty Princess Lee McKinney, now cocoa bean counter in her Aunt's shop in the "Tourism Central" Western Michigan fictional town of Warner Pier, Michigan, is amateur sleuthing through the snow. Stir in non-sequitur "Chocolate Chat" tidbits and the heroine's "tang tonguele" (tongue tangling impediment) and you have a too-cutesy-by-half milk chocolate mess that melts in your hands.
