Kate McGuire’s life was sweet in Manhattan before she lost her restaurant job and fiancé both. But sometimes that’s just the way the cookie crumbles, and soon she finds herself starting from scratch in the island town of Coral Cay, Florida. It has everything she’s looking for: sunny beaches, friendly locals, and a Help Wanted sign in the bakery shop window. Once she convinces the shop’s crusty owner Sam Hepplewhite to hire her, Kate can’t tie on her apron fast enough. Little does she know that trouble, like warm dough, is on the rise.

On the surface, these seven women are as different as can be - but each has had her share of bad luck, from cheating husbands to sexist colleagues to a legal system that often doesn't do its job. Now, drawn together by tragedy, they're forging a bond that will help them right the wrongs committed against them and discover an inner strength they didn't know they had.

Story
Baseball may be America’s official favorite pastime, but for Martha Rose and her friends, quilting is far more fun… and a lot less dangerous. A diamond brocade pattern is more quilter Martha Rose’s style than a baseball diamond - especially when it comes to the new eyesore of a stadium ruining her lovely San Fernando Valley neighborhood. Martha doesn’t know a bunt from a bundt cake, but when she stumbles upon the battered body of baseball coach Dax Martin, she doesn’t need a scorecard to know it’s foul play.

It was inescapably chilling, as if the murderer was methodically working his way down a page torn from the phone book. The three victims brutally killed in their own homes had one thing in common: They were all listed as M. Douglas. The fact that Mara Douglas is next on the list has her jumping at shadows, until FBI agent Aidan Shields shows up to make sure she doesn't become the fourth victim.

How did Hallmark turn this book into a great movie
i picked this book because I enjoyed the Hallmark movies - The Flower Shop Mysteries with Brooke Shields. The movie screen writer should receive flowers daily! The book was a terrible. Wish I could get my book credit back!!!

Mediocre
This book was a disappointment. The lead character, Abby, is immature and impulsive. She makes unrealistic decisions that put her life and others in jeopardy. The love interest is a typical superficial alpha male, Abby can't resist. Abby gets stuck on one suspect and ignores obvious clues. I found myself skipping ahead several times because Collins seemed to get stuck giving long winded descriptions over food or other unimportant distractions. There were lots of red herrings to make the mystery interesting, but it fell flat because of Abby's stupidity. The series has potential so I might check out the next book.
