Sabrina & David later in life!

Mysteries of Treasure Cove gives us a look at the town 10 years in later, and Sabrina and David are still solving murders! This small town has seen it's share of tragedy, and this latest murder is close to Sabrina. But will it stop her from investigating? She is more determined than ever to find the culprit and is not afraid to ask all that may be involved. This is a great idea, giving us that glimpse of Sabrina and David later in life. It's good to see how they take care of their daughter, Jessica and we see how well Sabrina's mom and grandmother have been doing too. I love the consistency of characters too! It's always fun to have the same characters, like Shannon and Crystal pop up. It's like coming back home! If you loved the first series, you will definitely want to give this a listen. Narrated by Carrie Burgess and she does a very good job portraying all the members of Treasure Cove!

Murder and Chocolate Fudge Cake

This was a really good story. I enjoyed the story itself, but it kept referencing things of the past as if we were supposed to know about it, but this is the first book in the series so it doesn't make sense that I would know about something that this series hasn't talked about yet. Also the narrator sounds like Cher from Clueless and never changed much of anything so everyone and every situation all sounded the same.

A cozy mystery

This is the second book of this author and series I have read. The first one I got for free in exchange for a review, but I loved the book so much I decided to buy another. This one didn’t disappoint either. It’s well written and interesting in a relaxed way as the mystery unfolds.

Great continuation of the Daley Buzz series.......

Murder and Chocolate Fudge Cake is the first in a new series, but it is basically a continuation of Potts' Daley Buzz series. That said, the author gives plenty of background for the two main characters, Sabrina, the manager of a coffee shop and sometimes consultant for the police department and her husband David, a police detective, that a reader could easily start with this book. Although a cozy mystery, this book also follows the format of a police procedural. Sabrina finds the dead body of her good friend, Ryan, and David and she proceed to interview all the potential suspects in order to narrow down to the guilty party. None of the suspects had good alibis, and they all had a good motive for wanting Ryan dead, so I wasn't sure about the culprit's identity until the very end when Sabrina figured it out. That seems like the ultimate compliment for a mystery, and I plan to continue the series.

Carrie Burgess does a terrific job with the narration. She has an extremely pleasing voice, and her delivery is flawless. The sound quality of the production is great, and I would definitely listen to another audiobook narrated by Burgess in the future.

I received a copy of this audiobook at my request in exchange for this honest review.

Light and Fun!

Murder and Chocolate Fudge Cake by Meredith Potts, narrated by Carrie Burgess is a light and fun cozy mystery for those who enjoy them most! While it can stand alone, it is part of a series, if you choose to continue solving cases alongside this husband-wife duo. Sabrina, the main character, is first introduced to us in The Daley Buzz Cozy Mystery series. Years later when we meet her again, Sabrina is married, has a 10-year-old daughter, and is solving cases full-time with her husband. This later series is called Mysteries of Treasure Cove; this book is part of that series. The only thing that is confusing to me is there are two books in the Treasure Cove series listed as Book 1 - this one and Murder and Layer Cake. Either way, I don't think makes a difference the order in which they are read because each one is a complete mystery from start to finish and not dependent upon the storylines of the others to make sense. However, I do recommend starting with The Daley Buzz series because it's fun getting to know the characters when they were younger, but that is just personal preference. As I listened, though, I again felt like I had heard this audiobook/storyline before, or at least parts of it. I could be wrong, and since I also own the print copy of this book, I'm hoping the familiarity is stemming from reading it. If I had any advice it would be to create a storyline and/or setting that greatly differs from book to book, giving readers and listeners a new experience with each case, while keeping true to the characters we know and love. Don't be scared to go out on a limb....we are fans of cozies, after all! We love a good case, especially when it's memorable. :-)

The narration by Carrie Burgess is great! The quality of the recording is professional and not rushed. Her voice and tone are perfect for this series, and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to her.

Overall, I give Murder and Chocolate Fudge Cake: Mysteries of Treasure Cove, Book 1 by Meredith Potts, narrated by Carrie Burgess 4/5 stars. The length is perfect for me, since I prefer shorter listens to longer ones. If you love listening to books in a series, this is the author to follow because you don't have to wait very long for the next in series to come out on audio! I love that! Meredith Potts is amazing in the sense that she doesn't make her listeners wonder when (or if) the next book will be recorded. I have listened to almost all of her books (I missed the first few in The Daley Buzz series), and I plan to continue as long as she keeps writing and Carrie Burgess keeps recording.

Thank you for reading my review. I hope it was helpful. Happy listening! :-)

Dead End

Murder and Chocolate Fudge Cake
: Meredith Potts


This is the second book I've listened to in this series. I love a good cozy mystery where the protagonist does their own investigating. I find it hard to believe a law enforcement agency would allow a non LEO wife to act as a partner with her husband. Other than trying to get past that the storyline doesn't require a lot of attention from the listener. The suspects are so so, a lot of bluster but no real depth.



The narration was well done. The characters were well portrayed by Carrie Burgess.

Who killed Ryan?

Finding someone has been murdered in your small town is one thing but someone you know very well? Good thing this detective husband lets his very intuitive wife help because she really is able to help him with this tricky case.
