When the going gets tough, Ella Mae LaFaye bakes pies. So when she catches her husband cheating in New York, she heads back home to Havenwood, Georgia, where she can drown her sorrows in fresh fruit filling and flaky crust.

But her pies aren't just delicious. They're having magical effects on the people who eat them, and the public is hungry for more. Discovering her hidden talent for enchantment, Ella Mae makes her own wish come true by opening the Charmed Pie Shoppe. But with her old nemesis, Loralyn Gaynor, making trouble and her old crush, Hugh Dylan, making nice, she has more than pie on her plate. When Loralyn's fiancé is found dead - killed with Ella Mae's rolling pin - it'll take all her sweet magic to clear her name.

Enjoyed, but may listen to one more before committing to series. Narrator sounds like she's a throwback to the days of "Hair."

This was a fun listen. made even more enjoyable because of the narration by CSE Cooney. she really brings the characters to life with her ability to take on many characters voices. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

If you are from the south, you make hear a mish-mash of different southern regions’ accents used interchangeably and the word usage pretty wrong. A lawyer was speaking at times like a brick-layer, which doesn’t track. The story was fine, but the narrator was hard to take.

Poor narrator

A little long winded. Much too descriptive, with more details than th story needed. Yikes!!! Yet it was a good

Lovely to listen to, but…

While I adore cozy mysteries and desserts of any kind, I found Pies and Prejudice a little too sweet and unrealistic to be entertaining.

Overly Sweet

Delicious mystery

It's a shame when a good-enough book gets a bad narrator. This book is a little overwritten with a sophomoric use of adjectives, but if you like magical mystery cozies, it's a fine read and a good start to a series. But the narrator gets in the way. It's clear that Cooney is unfamiliar with many of the words, and as a consequence she mispronounces them. Her accents are horrible, which is less her fault than it is the fault of the producer for hiring her. I finished the book but I won't be coming back to the series. It's the narrator who killed this series.

No to the Narrator
