This is the twentieth book in the long-running Bakeshop Mysteries by Ellie Alexander. I love how the characters have grown and relationships changed over the years. Jules has her actual family but her work family’s like an extension of that. When two of her team decided to check out an opportunity getting a restaurant started, she couldn’t do anything but give hugs and wish the two the best. But knowing Jules, of course she and Carlos showed up to help, it’s just what she does. And sleuthing’s what she does as well. An awesome mystery with some fave characters and I hope the series keeps on keepin’ on!

My Goodreads review:
Killing Me Soufflé by Ellie Alexander
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The amazing amateur sleuthing team of Lance and Jules were at it again—I absolutely love when they investigate together. Lance is such a dramatic hoot, gotta love that guy! Jules and her family and extended family were at the resort where Steph and Sterling were launching a new restaurant, so they were there as support but where there’s Jules, there’s usually a murder. This time it was Steph and Sterling’s bosszilla who had a ton of people who’d’ve liked to see him gone. Jules and Lance were in the thick of the showdown but it all worked out and ended in food, fellowship and fun when they gathered for a final night’s bonfire. I can’t wait to see what the next book brings!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book provided by St. Martin/Minotaur via NetGalley, and my opinions are my own.

I’m looking forward to getting to this one. I can’t wait to see how Steph and Stirling do with their new restaurant. Nice review, Tari.

Thanks, Carla! And I did find out, I should probably update the blog that there’s a book #21 coming. I didn’t really think this was the end of our Ashland pals. 🙂
