This is my first time reading this author. The books is wonderfully written with a great story, a wonderful setting and interesting characters.

Winter in Key West is a busy time. as tourists from the frozen north descend, looking for sunny days and warm nights. This year, the Conch Republic is staging a key lime pie contest and food critic Haley Snow will be there to help. And while Haley may look forward to the pie contest, she’s not looking forward to a visit from her pain in the butt mother-in-law. Haley’s idea to keep that old bat occupied goes off the rails when they find a dead body, the chef who was a shoe-in to win the key lime pie contest. This is a delightful cozy series, the Key West setting is sublime and Haley is the kind of woman anyone would love to have as a friend.
