This takes place about 6 mo after the first book. Katie is settled in and is learning about the Craft. The bakery is doing well, and they had to hire another person to help- Cookie one of the coven members. The mystery starts right away with the discovery of a dead body while Katie is out on a picnic with Declan. Katie still has 2 guys (Declan and Steve) that are interested in her (and they hate each other).
Decent mystery. The love triangle appears to be resolved in this one (based on something Katie says at the end of this one). Steve's dad is an asshole. There is a new detective aware of the paranormal (Taite). We will see where Katie ends up next.

I thought book two was much better than book one. Much better detailed mystery and better use of magic in the book. Recipe for Coca Cola cake looks intriguing. Nice job with character development. All the baked goods sound yummy.

The book is really developing the characters. Enjoying reading about them again. Looking forward to #3

Seemed more "put together" than the first, characters are better developed (excpected in the second of a series) and the story was better focused. A pleasure to read.

Katie is coming into her own as a witch. Trying to decide between yummy firefighter, Declan and fellow magic practitioner, Steve creates chaos in her life. Finding a dead body with magic ties doesn't help much either. Good follow up to the first book. 3.5 stars
Loved this book! Very intertaining and kept me interested the whole way through. Couldn't put it down!
