Murder Served Hot: Gay Cozy Mysteries

By Griff Holland

Murder Served Hot-Welcome to Maplewood Falls, where charming caf s, picturesque streets, and heartwarming connections hide dark secrets-and a murder mystery that turns the town upside down.
When Oliver Chase, a witty former travel writer, opens his cozy caf , The Buttered Biscuit, he dreams of filling it with the aroma of freshly baked pastries and the sounds of friendly laughter. But on opening day, his hopes crumble like a badly baked pie crust when local real estate mogul Judith Langston is found face-first in a cinnamon scone-murdered right at his table
Suddenly, Oliver becomes the number one suspect, and with his reputation and caf hanging in the balance, he must team up with the handsome new detective in town, Ethan Stone. But when secrets emerge, and allegations fly, their simmering chemistry is about to be tested.
As Oliver dives into the investigation, uncovering Judith's tangled web of rivalries and scandalous secrets, he realizes that some of the biggest threats lie closer to home than he ever imagined. With a growing list of suspects-including Judith's daughter, a vengeful ex-lover, and a shady business partner-every bite of pastry he serves could lead him further down a path of danger, deception, and potential heartbreak.
Can Oliver clear his name before the killer serves him a deadly slice of revenge? Or will he find himself tangled in a web of conspiracy, where trust is a fragile thing, and love might just be the most dangerous game of all?
Join Oliver and Ethan in this deliciously crafted cozy mystery filled with mouthwatering recipes, small-town charm, and a romance that simmers to perfection amidst the chaos. Murder Served Hot is the first book in the Secrets & Scones Series, where the secrets are sweet, the murders are messy, and the romance is just as irresistible as a warm pastry straight out of the oven
