Apple Turnover Murder By: Joanne Fluke

This was AMAZING!! I loved it with really great sounding recipes. I can't wait for more. Feel free to visit Joanne.

It's June in Lake Eden, Minnesota, and for Hannah Swensen, that means bridal showers galore, plus a massive fundraising event in need of confections - not to mention a killer who never learned that charity begins at home...Early summer brings plenty of work for Hannah, even before Mayor Bascomb's wife drops by The Cookie Jar to place an order...for eleven-hundred cookies! Stephanie Bascomb is organizing an elaborate three-day event to support local charities, and though it's a worthy cause, Hannah almost flips when her business partner, Lisa, suggests setting up an apple turnover stand. Hannah's never made a turnover - but, pushover that she is, she places her faith in Lisa's mother-in-law's recipe and agrees to be a magician's assistant in the fundraiser's talent show...Dozens of pastries and one hideous purple dress later, Hannah has to admit that stepping out of her comfort zone has been fun as well as profitable. The only snag is the show's host, community college professor Bradford Ramsey. Hannah and her younger sister Michelle each had unfortunate romantic relationships with Ramsey, and when the cad comes sniffing around between acts, Hannah tells him off. But when the curtain doesn't go up, she discovers Ramsey backstage - dead as a doornail with a turnover in his hand...Now, to protect her reputation and Michelle's, Hannah must get to the bottom of the professor's bitter end. There are plenty of scorned suspects, including an ex-wife who feels cheated in more ways than one, and a prominent local who may have been using Ramsey to avenge her own randy spouse. But who was unstable enough to snuff out Professor Love? A killer who's flakier than puff pastry - and far more dangerous...

The Twelve Disasters of Christmas By: Lisa Ray Turner

This book was really cute and fast. It tells the story of Natalie's fifth pregnancy during the Christmas season.

The shriveled black eyes bored into me, his red licorice mouth turned up into an ugly sneer. even his clothes mocked me.

... How could the gingerbread boy be so happy? Didn't he know it was December 14th-twelve days before Christmas, the busiest, craziest time of the year!

If Natalie Browning is given one more thing to do this Christmas, she might just crack. Natalie is eight months pregnant, her husband has just been transfered to Dirt Gulch, Mississippi, and her mother-in-law has decided to move in. But these are only a few of the catastrophes in a series of mishaps that put Natalie's Christmas spirit in a serious slump. Lisa Ray Turner weaves a hilarious string of events accompanying Natalie's adventures in what turns out to be a wonderful Christmas after all.

A headline murder. A rookie investigator. A race against the clock-and against his past. With his newly minted detective badge, "Mac" McAllister reports for his first assignment with the Oregon State Police: a particularly gruesome homicide. It's a headline case, as the victim - Megan Tyson - was brutally murdered mere weeks before her wedding. The investigation turns up far too many suspects, and too little hard evidence. Why would the beautiful Megan, engaged to a wealthy businessman be involved with the likes of the long line-up of questionable characters that seem connected to her in more ways than one? With more questions than answers, Mac tries to uncover the secrets Megan took to her grace. While the autopsy answers how Megan was killed, it doesn't reveal why or by whom. Can Mac and his partner sort through the lies and alibis before Megan's murderer strikes again? Not sure that he can trust his instincts, Mac depends heavily on the advice of his partner - a seasoned detective with a strong faith in God. A faith Mac has no use for until he must come to terms with his own past and the secrets that haunt him. Fiction that reflects the grittiness of real life ... and the reality of faith.
