Felicity Jin grew up literally hanging onto Mom’s apron strings in their magical bakery in the quaint town of Pixie, California. Her mother’s enchanted baked goods, including puffy pineapple buns and creamy egg tarts, bring instant joy to all who consume them. Felicity has always been hesitant in the kitchen herself after many failed attempts, but a takeout meal gone wrong inspires her to craft some handmade fortune cookies.

They become so popular that Felicity runs out of generic fortunes and starts making her own personalized predictions. When one customer’s ill-fated fortune results in his murder, Felicity’s suspiciously specific fortune has the police focusing on her as the main culprit. Now Felicity must find a way to turn her luck around and get cleared from suspicion.

My 💭s
This was just the cutest cozy mystery with a fun magical element. I loved that Mrs Jin could bring instant happiness to everyone just by putting her love into baking. Felicity final finds her magic predicting a personal fortune for people but it’s temperamental and she hasn’t really hasn’t nailed it yet and her last one ended up killing someone. This book wasn’t just about an amateur sleuth who kept making things worse for the police, but family, friendship, finding one’s place and love. I can’t wait to read more in this series. Oh and there kind of a magical bunny named Whiskers…..want her!

❓Have you ever saved a Forture from a cookie or played the lottery with the lucky numbers on them❓
