Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
A slice of intrigue. . .
Mother’s Day is a sweet and busy time at the candy shop Bailey King runs with her Amish grandmother. This year is extra special, because Bailey’s parents are visiting Harvest, Ohio. Bailey’s father has rarely returned since leaving the Amish faith over thirty years ago, but Bailey is confident that the right treats can help sugarcoat any awkwardness. For Mother’s Day Tea at the local church, she’s whipping up her mom’s favorite: butterscotch fudge. All’s going well, until a sticky-fingered thief makes off with the money raised for a local women’s support group.
While Bailey tries to discover who stuck their fingers in the cookie jar, she encounters an assortment of suspects. It doesn’t help that Juliet, mother of Deputy Aiden Brody, is conspiring with Bailey’s mom to plan Aiden and Bailey’s wedding…though they’re not even engaged! Can Bailey find the culprit before events—both criminal and personal—boil over into disaster?
Recipe Included!

“A great little novella to read while you wait on more Jethro and Bailey fun. This novella highlights Jethro and his parents. If you have read the series I highly recommend this novella.

“This is a fun novella in the Amish Sweet Shop mystery series. I have read every one of the stories thus far, and I have to say this is on par with the rest. Bailey King is living in a small Amish town called Harvest. She helps her Amish grandmother run the Swissmen Sweet Shop. Bailey did not grow up Amish.
When a Mother’s Day tea for a local charity is interrupted by the theft of the charity’s proceeds, Bailey steps in to help police investigate. This story has all the characters we know and love, including Jethro the pig and his owner Juliet and her son Aiden Brody. It also introduces us to Bailey’s parents.
I thought the story was fun and a quick read. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves the Amish Sweet Shop series, although I think this would be fine as a stand-alone story, as well.
My thanks to #NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this story in exchange for my honest opinion.
