A Cherry Sinister Murder by Nancy McGovern and Cyra Bruce is the beginning of the Slice of Paradise cozy mystery series. Faith Franklin's only passion is baking; so when her grandmother calls want her to come run her cafe, Faith is thrilled and immediately sets out for Florida. While she is still renovating the cafe, the owner of a nearby business complains that she cannot serve cupcakes. Faith tries to be polite, but it doesn't work. The outlook quickly takes a turn for the worse when the woman is discovered poisoned, and Faith is the top suspect.
The mystery was entertaining but had an obvious conclusion. The main characters all need to develop more of a backbone, but the antics of her two fluffy gray kittens were adorable. 3 stars.
