Grilled for Murder by Maddie Day

5.0

GRILLED FOR MURDER, was a delicious read! The setting held special meaning for me because my in-laws lived in Illinois, ten miles from the Indiana border, and I’ve spent a lot of time there. Being born and raised in Southern California (and living fairly close to Santa Barbara where Robbie grew up!) the colloquialisms of those two Midwest states caught me off-guard early on. Maddie captures the sayings and mannerisms of the townspeople perfectly! The plot had several twists and turns that I didn’t see coming while the mystery surrounding the father Robbie never knew she had, intrigues me. I am anxious to learn more!!! There are so many appealing characters woven into the story along with some romantic angst, which adds to the overall enjoyment of the book. The author also provides several recipes with her book. I tried her Overnight French Toast recipe and it will now be my go-to recipe when I need to serve breakfast or brunch to guests!
