Description
Buried secrets, a killer in disguise, and not even the truffles can be trusted...
When culinary dreamer Angie Amalfi sets her sights on chocolate stardom, her kitchen becomes a cocoa-covered lab of decadent disasters and divine delights. Her goal? To invent the perfect chocolate candy—“angelinas”—a melt-in-your-mouth masterpiece that could finally make her name in San Francisco’s cutthroat foodie scene.
But when Angie donates her “not-quite-there-yet” test batches to a local charity mission, she stumbles into more than gratitude. The mission’s minister seems to have secrets simmering beneath his saintly smile, and when Angie volunteers for their big fundraiser, she’s suddenly stirring up something far more sinister than ganache.
Her fiancé, Inspector Paavo Smith, warns her to stay away—especially with rumors swirling of police corruption and a killer on the loose. But when Paavo is framed and suspended, Angie ditches her spatula for sleuthing gear. Someone’s cooking up a setup—and she’s not about to let Paavo take the fall.
To help clear his name, Angie will need more than her confectionery skills… and the clock is ticking.
Sink your teeth into Truffles to Die For—a deliciously suspenseful cozy mystery. Indulge yourself in murder with a chocolate twist!

Another adventure for Angie! I was so happy that NetGalley has let me read another book by Joanne Pence. If you haven't read her books you are missing a treat. As a mystery, I was kept guessing for quite a while. The whole story told with descriptions of mouthwatering candies just out of my reach. I definitely recommend this series,. I received an e-book from NetGalley in return for an unbiased review.

Truffles to Die For is a cozy mystery that delivers a sweet balance of charm, suspense, and chocolatey goodness. Angie Amalfi’s quest to create the perfect truffle lands her in the middle of a murder mystery that kept me guessing all the way through. The blend of foodie fun with a solid whodunit was just what I needed for a relaxing weekend read. I especially enjoyed how Angie’s loyalty and determination shine through—even when things get sticky (and not just from chocolate!).

Warning—this mystery may cause intense cravings and sudden bursts of sass. 🍫🕵️♀️
Listen, I picked this up for the chocolate and stayed for the chaos. Angie is equal parts fabulous and fearless, and I loved watching her chase the truth with truffle batter still on her apron. Between crooked cops, a fishy minister, and her man getting framed, she dives in like a crime-fighting Betty Crocker with zero chill (in the best way). If you like your cozy mysteries with a sugar rush and a side of sass, this one’s your jam. Or ganache. 😏🍬

#TrufflestoDieFor #NetGalley is an intense story that kept me guessing and questioning everyone's motives and actions.
Angie was funny while trying to perfect her chocolate business, and her relationship with Paavo had me wondering what was going to happen to them.
I lived this story from beginning to end I'm happy to recommend it to other readers.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for selecting me to read an advanced copy of this book.
