I'm a little torn on this book. I did enjoy reading it but it felt a bit off. First off, this really should've been the second book because it wouldn't make sense to anyone who didn't read Chili Cauldron Curse (which is technically a short book 1). Dorian's posession of Mr Darcy is completely glossed over. Trent and Mia's relationship progresses from ordering steaks into a full fledged dating with no in-between. I have no idea how Mia's doll Gloria is related to her magic and what kind of magic she even has, or what kind of magic Trent and Levi have. It's a bit all over the place with no explanations and lots of assumptions.
That said, I still enjoyed reading it and the murder and suspects were really good and very cleverly written. So I'll definitely be reading future books in the series.

This is precisely the cozy I was looking for to get into spooky season! After a particularly nasty breakup, Mia moves to the actually magical Magic Springs, Idaho to start a new catering/gourmet delivery business. However, Mia isn't your average chef - she's a kitchen witch. The magic system was fun and I'm excited to learn more in future books. The mystery was reasonably well-plotted, although I wasn't entirely sold on how things turned out. The cast of characters was super fun and I can't wait to see how they develop. I have a few favorites that I think will stick around. Overall, this was a delightful start to a series that I'm ready to keep reading!

After her boyfriend deceives her, Mia Malone, a kitchen witch, pulls up stakes to move to her grandmother’s small Idaho town. She plans to open an eatery and best of all, she won’t have to keep her spell casting to herself. This is one small town where magic is nothing out of the ordinary. Mia’s new business, however, takes a turn for the dark side when her first catering client is found murdered under the table. Mia is not only a suspect, she’s also the next potential victim. A quirky and fun little cozy
