THE CHOCOLATE BUNNY BROUHAHA

By JoAnna Carl

As this tale begins, winter is on the backend and the small, fun shop of Ten-Huis Chocolade is moving on from Valentine’s Day chocolate hearts to delicious Easter Bunnies. With the new holiday fast approaching, Lee and her Aunt Nettie, who own the really cool chocolate shop, have hired a new employee, Bunny Birdsong. Bunny is going through a divorce and isn’t working out too well in the chocolate-making part of the business. Lee is about to show her the door when she notices that Bunny might be able to help out with the office/business side of things.

Bunny is a sad case with a lot of baggage thanks to her soon-to-be ex named Beau; he has a current flame but his Aunt Abigail is bound and determined to keep Bunny and Beau together. After a day of drama in the shop, Abigail’s body is found in the building next door that’s currently under construction.

Being that the building was not ready for tenants, all the doors into the place should have been locked. So, to begin, the police think that Bunny had a good motive and easy access, but Lee doesn’t think that Bunny has the personality to commit murder. In fact, Lee begins her own investigation in order to try and clear her distraught employee’s name.

There are many books in this fantastic series and the author doesn’t waste any time. Drawing readers into the story immediately, the mystery goes from one hurdle to the next, speeding toward the end. An added extra bit of fun comes in the form of chocolate stories scattered throughout, so readers can learn all there is to know about this universal delight. If you haven’t read the others, you will most definitely want to jump on board this savory bandwagon and go back to the very beginning to devour all the Chocoholic Mysteries.
