The writer wrote as though she didn't know how it would end. A lot of back and forth and didn't follow through for closure on Grady. Why introduce the guy ghost in the car and not clarify? Did not follow up with him.
Only mention a cpl times. Rewrite and clean it up and it could be a good series. I only took one,star off because with proper editing and a rewrite it could be good. The main character has some major personality flaws. Take 2 friends and , basically, ignored them on vacation. Swimming in water 4 am? It would be too dark to see a boat sunk in the water. Annie is broken up because she used to babysit him.
Did I mention she sees ghosts? I do like a paranormal mystery. The local detective is another of her babysitting boys all grown up. They start looking into the murder, which does seem to be tied to the hot guy contest. It felt like she had no idea what to do with them. They were very two-dimensional. Not one of them offer a pittance to help buy her clothing. And at the very end, her girlfriend buys Annie a plane ticket back home to Rafe and goes with her as her only purpose was to fall into bed with one of the hot guys and get dumped as quickly.

They left him stranded in Wisconsin. Is he getting a plane ride too? Is he going back on the stupid bus? Did he hook up with any of the hot guys? At the end of the day, it would have been a stronger story without her friends. Sep 22, Jo-Anne rated it liked it Shelves: Annie moved to California after her divorce and didn't miss Wisconsin one bit. But when her mother volunteered her to be a judge in the Wisconsin Hot Guy contest, she had no choice but to go back, telling her boyfriend it would just be a quick trip.
It turned out to not be quick after all. Because one of the contestants was murdered. Since Annie could see and talk to ghosts, this one asked her to find his murderer. Annie just had to help, especially because she used to babysit the man when she w Annie moved to California after her divorce and didn't miss Wisconsin one bit. Annie just had to help, especially because she used to babysit the man when she was a teen.
Of course, the police are investigating the murder so Annie has to be careful that she doesn't talk to the ghost when the detective is around. He is another one of the boys she used to babysit. Wow, has he grown up nicely. He tries to get her to see he's not the boy she once knew and shares his feelings with her. This was a fun story, even with a murder.
The supernatural touch was a nice twist. I didn't care for Annie much and found her a bit scattered. After seeing so many positive reviews, I expected to love this mystery. But, sadly, I didn't like it as much as other readers appear to have. I was especially surprised by the ending. It wasn't really a cliffhanger but definitely left things open for following books which I would understand if this was the first book in the series but this is book 3!
My rating for Cupcakes, Pies, and Hot Guys is 2. Hot guys contest anyone? This is a cute quirky book with hot guys in a "beauty contest". Annie and her 2 besties go back home to judge the contest. Lost luggage, long bus trip, murder, psychic abilities, and mom and her wild women best friends all help solve the murder, judge the contest, say goodbye to new guy wanting to be the guy and reconnecting with the guy she left at home. This story was well done and is not done. Can't wait till the next book.
Never read any of her books before but will look for more of her books. She writes like you are in conversation with her and you can't wait for her answer or for her to finish the tale she is telling you. Great stand alone Got this book free. So glad it was a stand alone or I just could not have read it. As was there's enough information so as I could keep track of who was who. Loved the pushy moms, the dreamy men and the dash of romance.
Well written, thoughtful , slightly provocative and a good read. A fun cozy mystery that keeps you guessing untill the end! Annie goes home to judge the first Wisconsin's Hot Guy contest. But when a contestant and good friend is murdered Annie is contacted by his ghost to find out who murdered him. With the help of friends, her mom's Wild Women's group and a cop she used to babysit, the hunt is on.
Would make a great Hallmark movie. To describe the love scenes… Best to read them out of left field. And the clues, right there in front of me, so how did I miss them. Just thought the old teacher was being a grump. I'm definitely onto the next cupcakes book. And definitely going to try those cupcakes.
Charmingly Delicious and Humorously Mysterious I love this book! Characters, scenarios, oddities, and surprises. Absolutely delightful from beginning to end. Fuller, a famous, self-help author is poisoned with one of Annie Graceland's signature cupcakes, she becomes a murder suspect. His know-it-all ghost recruits Annie to solve his murder. Can Annie solve the crime before she becomes the next victim?
