About MEET YOUR BAKER:
Welcome to Torte—a friendly, small-town family bake shop where the treats are so good that, sometimes, it’s criminal…
After graduating from culinary school, Juliet Capshaw returns to her quaint hometown of Ashland, Oregon, to heal a broken heart and help her mom at the family bakery. The Oregon Shakespeare Festival is bringing in lots of tourists looking for some crumpets to go with their heroic couplets. But when one of Torte’s customers turns up dead, there’s much ado about murder…
“Sure to satisfy both dedicated foodies and ardent mystery lovers alike.”
―Jessie Crockett, author of Drizzled with Death
The victim is Nancy Hudson, the festival’s newest board member. A modern-day Lady Macbeth, Nancy has given more than a few actors and artists enough reasons to kill her…but still. The silver lining? Jules’s high school sweetheart, Thomas, is the investigator on the case. His flirtations are as delicious as ever, and Jules can’t help but want to have her cake and eat it too. But will she have her just desserts? Murder might be bad for business, but love is the sweetest treat of all…
“Alexander weaves a tasty tale of deceit, family ties, delicious pastries, and murder.” ―Edith Maxwell, author of A Tine to Live, A Tine to Die

Jennifer’s Review of Meet Your Baker
Review (4.5 Stars): Juliet has moved home to Ashland, Oregon, to start over and help her mother out in the bakery, Torte. On her second day back in town, Juliet finds a dead body in the bakery with her homemade raspberry jam all over the crime scene. She soon learns that the victim had her share of enemies and she needs to help find a killer before they add another victim to their list.
I loved Jules and the cast of characters involved in Meet Your Baker. Juliet was fun, spunky and had this amazing talent to create yummy desserts during the course of this mystery that will make your stomach rumble. The mystery was well-written and entertaining and this is a great start to a new series. Meet Your Baker is an absolute delight and will leave you craving more from this charming little town. Can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
