Hello Audiobook Lovers!
I'll be the first to admit that I have only recently became an audiobook lover. I used to be one of those people whose mind would wander too much while listening and gave up time and time again, but for some reason this year I've listened to several audiobooks while doing mundane tasks and now I look forward to listening to audiobooks, especially when the story is great and the narrator does a wonderful job, like the audiobook I am featuring today.
I hope you enjoy my thoughts on this cute Cozy Mystery and don't forget to scroll to the bottom of this post and enter the amazing giveaway from JustRead Tours.

Solving a murder is easy, right? All you need to do is follow the clues, and they will lead you to the culprit.
At least that’s what Emma Blackwood thought before she and her cat, Tim, came to the Black Hills to work in Aunt Rose’s Sweetbrier Inn. Before she found a dead body in her living room. Before the hunky Deputy Sheriff accused her of murdering the poor guy. And before the real killer put her name on their list of victims.
For this fan of Agatha Christie and a plethora of television crime dramas, it’s an intriguing situation that demands her skills. Investigating might not be as simple as it looks in fictional mysteries, but Emma’s organized mind and OCD tendencies start making sense of the clues…until she finds a second body with no apparent connection to the first.
Sifting through evidence is easier with the help of her new friend, Becky, who provides baked goods for the inn, and Aunt Rose is always willing to take time from writing her mysterious memoirs to give support and advice. Wil, the inn’s chef, moves things along with a barbed comment or two, and Tim the cat and Rose’s corgi, Thatcher, make themselves available for fuzz therapy and to point the way to another clue.
The list of suspects grows as Emma learns more about the inn’s guests and their reasons for visiting the Black Hills. From the honeymoon couple to Mysterious Montgomery, to the famous reality show ghost hunter, to the gold seekers, no one is the person they appear to be. Even Rose’s good friend Clara is hiding secrets in her pink chenille bathrobe.
But as Emma pursues the investigation, things start to get personal. Can she identify the murderer before disaster strikes?
