Candy Cane Crime (Amish Candy Shop Mystery #5.5) Review
My Review
This is a novella length Amish characters cosy mystery book. I enjoyed the straight mystery with no murder taking place.
Seasonally themed for Christmas this book had all the charm you could ask for plus a candy shop filled with Christmas candies,falling snow
and a fun candy cane exchange.
A fun plot and characters I enjoyed getting to know. I look forward to reading the rest of the books in this series. Pub Date 06 Oct 2020 by Kensington Books I was given a complimentary copy. Thank you. All opinions expressed are my own.

A candy-striped caper . . . Christmas is coming all too quickly for Harvest, Ohio’s famous chocolatier, Bailey King. Thanks to her new cable TV show, her shop has more candy orders than she can handle this holiday season. Fortunately, her beloved Cousin Charlotte is happy to take the Candy Cane Exchange off Bailey’s to-do list. After all, Charlotte has come to Harvest from her conservative home district to find her future outside of her family’s influence. What better way than by taking on the Englisch task of pairing the sweet notes everyone is exchanging with a peppermint treat, just in time for Christmas Eve delivery? But when Charlotte discovers some of those delicious missives are for her, suddenly she’s staking out the festive postbox, hoping to catch her secret admirer in his intriguing tracks . . . When Charlotte sees something underhanded going on beneath the merrymaking, she enlists the help of Sheriff Deputy Luke Little to find out if her unknown correspondent is none other than the town’s biggest suspect. And the surprising truth about her suitor’s identity has her contemplating leaving her Amish roots behind forever . . .
