Faith Franklin is a dreamer. She dreams of cakes & pies. She dreams of crepes & brownies. And, more than anything, she dreams of making a career of serving her delicious treats to an adoring public.
So, when her grandmother calls and asks her to move to Florida to help run her café, she cannot get out of Minnesota fast enough! And before she knows it she is standing in Paradise Point, the beautiful, oceanside plaza in which Bessie's Café is located, hardly able to believe her good fortune.
Life is now exactly how Faith had imagined it could be. She's made wonderful friends. The café, now renamed the Slice of Paradise, has been renovated to showcase her amazing desserts. And both locals & tourists are loving it!
Well, all except for one…
The owner of a nearby cupcake shop is not at all happy with Faith's arrival in Paradise Point. She has accused Faith of trying to ruin her by stealing her recipes & designs. And she is not shy about letting everyone know it.
So, when the woman is found dead the day after their confrontation, people immediately begin to consider whether Faith is the killer…
Is Faith guilty of murder? If not, who is? And can Faith find a way to clear her name before her dreams turn into nightmares?
Faith has had a string of dead end jobs so when her grandmother phones and asks her to come down and help out at Bessie's Cafe she jumps at the chance – it turns out that Bessie (Faith's grandmother) actually hopes Faith will take it over and run it as Bessie has had a fall and moved into an assisted living complex. As the one thing Faith IS good at is baking she agrees and after talking with the one member of staff, Laura (who within minutes is a firm friend!) they decide to jazz the place up and re-name it a Slice of Paradise. Most people are really happy about the idea but one person (owner of a cupcake bakery) accuses Faith of stealing her recipes and is determined to run her out of the complex!
That would normally not be too much of a problem but then the bakery owner winds up dead, and Faith is accused of her murder! Now Faith. Laura and Laura's cousin Nathan need to find out the truth or a Slice of Paradise will become a Total Hades!
