Donuts and Death
Valentine’s Day is the sweetest time of year—unless someone turns up dead.
Cassie Desmarais is juggling heart-shaped donuts, a fully booked couples’ baking class, and her ever-growing feelings for her high school sweetheart, Sam. But when her ex-husband, James, storms back into Harmony Bay with a shocking revelation about their divorce, Cassie’s carefully crafted life starts crumbling faster than a broken cookie. As if that’s not enough, the festive mood is shattered when one of her baking class attendees is found unconscious in the pantry and later dies, turning her bakery into the backdrop of a murder investigation.
With a determined Sam by her side, Cassie dives into a web of secrets, love triangles, and escalating vandalism that threatens her bakery’s future. When tensions boil over at the Valentine’s Day dance, Cassie must face danger head-on to uncover the truth—and save everything she holds dear.
Welcome back to Harmony Bay, where love is in the air, danger lurks around every corner, and the donuts are always to die for.
