Brownies and Broomsticks by Bailey Cates

Tired of her role as the assistant manager at a bakery in Ohio, Katie Lightfoot jumps at the chance to join her Aunt Lucy and Uncle Ben at their new bakery in Savannah’s charming downtown area. Named the Honeybee Bakery after Aunt Lucy’s beloved cat, Katie quickly realizes that her aunt’s recipes contain more than just delicious ingredients— they are actually spells, as Aunt Lucy is a witch.

However, things take a dark turn when a grumpy customer is found dead outside the Honeybee Bakery, and Uncle Ben becomes the main suspect in the murder. Determined to clear his name, Katie teams up with the handsome journalist Steve Dawes, the charming firefighter Declan McCarthy, and Aunt Lucy to uncover the real killer using a combination of magic and investigation.

As they navigate through the twists and turns of the case, Katie discovers more about her own magical abilities and the power of family bonds. With a blend of spells, charm, and determination, Katie and her team work together to solve the mystery and bring the true culprit to justice. In the end, Katie learns that sometimes, a little bit of toil and trouble is necessary to protect the ones you love and seek justice in a world full of secrets and surprises.
