Deadly Sweet by Lola DodgeMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Warning, reading this book will make you crave baked goods. Every baked good. Pies, cakes, cinnamon rolls, nothing is safe!! Your diet will hate you!
You will probably like this book though!
Anise is a young witch, in a world where magic openly exists, but isn't always accepted. Her mom, also a witch--though she doesn't practice--tries to let her have a life, moving her from place to place as they get cast out again for accidental magic use. While out with friends one night, she uses her magic all wrong, and she's afraid she's going to have to move again, or worse, go to jail.
Luckily, her famous aunt saves the day, and brings her to the town of Taos, to work for her in a learning bakery, while sending her to baking school! Her dreams all come true!!
Life would be so easy if that was all of it though. Anise has to deal with the bitterness left behind between her mother and the locals, a weird so-called bodyguard who is more of a creep than a help, and also the girl that she replaced as assistant, well, she went missing so...
All in all, Deadly Sweet is a fun magical mystery, and you'll never guess who is doing what for what reason. So many twists and turns, I kept thinking I knew what was going on, and then another twist! Loved it.
Will be looking forward to the next book in the series, due out in November of this year!
