I read and listened to the audiobook for Beachfront Bakery - A Killer Cupcake, and it was an enjoyable read and listen. The main character, Ali, is a strong woman who has to make a hard decision about the future of her life and to follow her dreams. Carb-free diets, seaside communities and murder. How does Ali, the newcomer, prove she isn't involved in the murder of a local pest! Cooking pastries and solving a murder.
The storyline is humorous, full of adventure and has the moral fortitude of following your dreams and facing obstacles head on. There is a dash of romantic interest from three very handsome men who all want to help Ali with her business.
I gave this book a 4 out of 5, for its wholesome storyline, strong characters and plot.
The audio version of the book was narrated by Ulka Mohanty who has a beautiful way of bringing the characters to life, portraying their feelings and the scenes. Although, her attempts at the Australian accent, is stereotypical of the stereotype and pronunciation of Bondi Beach is comical. Ulka Mohanty did a great job and I loved listening to A Killer Cupcake between my drives to work and home and whilst cooking.
