Sweetly Suspicious
(2024)(The first book in the Cozy in Nashville Mysteries series)
A novel by Cris Knight
A bakery, a murder, and TWO irresistible men—what could possibly go wrong?
Sienna Harper has always dreamed of opening her own bakery, and thanks to her grandmother’s encouragement (and inheritance), she’s finally done it. Nestled in the heart of downtown Nashville, Whisk & Wonder is a cozy haven filled with mouthwatering pastries, shelves of books to read and the constant supervision of Frank, Sienna's judgmental yet lovable ginger cat.
But just as her bakery is gaining momentum, a local politician turns up dead, and all signs point to Sienna''s cinnamon roll being involved. Suddenly, her dream is in jeopardy as she becomes the prime suspect in a murder investigation.
Determined to clear her name, Sienna dives headfirst into uncovering the truth, unearthing a web of dark secrets in the victim's past. Along the way, she finds herself caught between two men who are both infuriatingly attractive and impossible to ignore: Finn Brooks, the brooding bar owner next door with a rough-around-the-edges charm, and Brody Hale, the serious, no-nonsense detective assigned to the case. With sparks flying and tension building, Sienna’s heart is as confused as her mind.
Why should she have to choose between them? 🌶🌶🌶
With the clock ticking and her bakery’s reputation at stake, Sienna must untangle the mystery of the murder before she loses everything she’s worked for—including her chance at love.
This charming, laugh-out-loud story will keep you guessing—and swooning—until the very last page. Will Sienna solve the case in time, or will the real killer leave her bakery in crumbs?
Combine the hilarious charm of a cozy mystery with the spice of romance in this new take on a beloved genre.
