ONE SPOONFUL OF TROUBLE (Book 1)

When Felicity Bell expresses the wish there were more to life than working in the family bakery, she didn't know her wish would come true so soon. Suddenly the small town of Happy Bays is confronted with a crime wave the likes of which she's never seen. The main culprit seems to be big shot reporter Rick Dawson, and soon the two are at daggers drawn.

Rick actually came down to Happy Bays to work on a tell-all article exposing villainous billionaire Chazz Falcone. Rick just lost his job because of the expose, and he's determined to nail the real estate tycoon to the wall. He soon discovers that trouble has followed him from New York City. Though she pretends to be a baker, he has a sneaking suspicion Felicity Bell is really working for Falcone, trying to get her hands on his article.

Before long, Felicity and Rick find themselves in a reluctant partnership fighting the crime wave that has hit Happy Bays, and the shady billionaire who seems to be behind all the trouble.

TWO SCOOPS OF MURDER (Book 2)

Happy Bays, that peaceful little town nestled on Long Island's south shore, is suddenly the scene of a brutal murder. Felicity Bell, baker and sometime crime reporter, decides to get involved when the police appear stumped. Very soon, however, more murders startle the small community, and Felicity enlists the help of the 'holy trinity', three nosy and gossipy members of the Happy Bays Neighborhood Watch Committee (HBNWC).

Meanwhile Alice Whitehouse, Felicity's best friend and chairwoman of the HBNWC, has other fish to fry in the form of Reece Hudson, Hollywood hunk. Alice has been Reece's number one fan since he first rose to fame, and the fact that the handsome movie star is in town to introduce his fiancee to his father doesn't stop her from accidentally falling into the man's arms, and promptly signing him up for the HBNWC.

Now Felicity, with the help of Alice, the Holy Trinity, and action hero Reece Hudson, has to find a way to stop the killer before he strikes again. And as the body count rises, Felicity finds herself running out of time, out of options, and out of customers.

THREE SHOTS OF DISASTER (Book 3)

Just when Felicity Bell, well-renowned baker and sometime crime reporter, thought that the streets of Happy Bays were safe once again, tragedy strikes. First there's the nuclear power plant, where a terrorist is plotting revenge on the small Long Island town.

Then there's Mayor MacDonald's pet parrot Moe who is suddenly kidnapped, and finally Felicity's best friend Alice's love life suffers a crushing blow when Hollywood hunk Reece Hudson decides to return to his ex-girlfriend, the socialite Dorothy Valour.

Felicity, Alice, and their band of friends are faced with three shots of disaster. And this may well be the end, for even Felicity's baking skills seem to have deserted her when her muffins turn out inedible, due to a mistake in Granny Bell's recipe.

Will Alice be reunited with Reece? Will Moe the Parrot escape his captors? Will Happy Bays survive nuclear disaster? And, most importantly, will Felicity's baking prowess return? In this, Alice and Felicity's third mystery, things look very grim indeed...
