Description
When the going gets tough, Ella Mae LaFaye bakes pies. So when she catches her husband cheating in New York, she heads back home to Havenwood, Georgia, where she can drown her sorrows in fresh fruit filling and flakey crust. But her pies aren't just delicious. They're having magical effects on the people who eat them—and the public is hungry for more.
Discovering her hidden talent for enchantment, Ella Mae makes her own wish come true by opening the Charmed Pie Shoppe. But with her old nemesis Loralyn Gaynor making trouble, and her old crush Hugh Dylan making nice, she has more than pie on her plate. and when Loralyn's fiancé is found dead—killed with Ella Mae's rolling pin—it'll take all her sweet magic to clear her name.

        Starred review from July 1, 2012

        Ella Mae leaves her ailing marriage and lonely New York City life to seek comfort in her idyllic hometown of Havenwood, GA. A gifted baker, she decides that a pie shop is her destiny. There's magic in her culinary gifts: her freshly baked goods pick up on her moods (sad, happy, etc.), and then the eaters absorb the mood. Tragedy strikes when the local equine veterinarian is murdered, and Ella Mae's rolling pin is the weapon. Our sleuth scrambles to identify the murderer by working with the victim's son, renewing her friendship with a local firefighter, and baking pies that make people want to tell her secrets. VERDICT A little play on Jane Austen with a nod to Arthurian legend gets this new series from veteran author Adams (she also writes as J.B. Stanley and cowrites as Lucy Arlington) off to an enchanted start. A sensory delight for those who like a little magic with their culinary cozies; think Bailey Cates's recent Brownies and Broomsticks.

        Books by the Bay series author Adams begins a new line featuring Ella Mae LeFaye and her return to Havenwood, Georgia, after the abrupt end of her seven-year New York marriage. She is enveloped by her mother and her aunts, but childhood nemesis Loralyn wants Ella Mae gone. Ella Mae opens a pie shop but is soon a suspect in the murder of Loralyn's fiance, who was killed with Ella Mae's marble rolling pin. Then another victim dies in the pie shop, and the police pursue Ella Mae while she hunts for clues to clear herself. A dusting of magic covers the story as Ella Mae learns of her own powers and recognizes other talents in her family. The magic offers a new twist but does not overpower the savory blend of suspense, pies, and engaging characters. Foodie mystery fans will enjoy this, along with titles from Carol Culver's pie-shop series.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2012, American Library Association.)
