Lighthearted mysteries
I enjoyed these lighthearted mysteries. They were short stories yet each a complete book in their own right. Margot has her life together and is a very successful baker. She also like to solve mysteries. Adam respects her as a woman and supports her with her inquiring mind.

Great heroine, great stories!!!
There are tears in my eyes as I write this. I just finished these delightful stories with Margot and Adam. What lovely characters! What interesting, spellbinding stories! I want Bentley as my neighbor. I'd love to babysit for Julia's son, help Rosie clean bakery tables after the morning rush. Immerse myself in these people's lives. What a delightful to spend an afternoon, reading, laughing, gasping with suspense, crying with sadness and joy! Wonderful!!!!

You can enjoy this as I have
I consider this series one of my very favorites. I found myself turning the pages eagerly to see what Margot had done this time, or had bad things done to her. She had wonderful friends. They would do anything for her and she for them. I try to read what they call clean mysteries, but this was carrying it too far. At the end of book six, I yelled out loud,KISS her. But I really loved the set. You can buy it and enjoy it as I did.

I have read a lot of Cozy Mystery series and have really enjoyed them except this series. A lot of leaps in logic and not very well defined descriptions of the main characters. I never got a sense of how they looked, what their approximate ages were, etc. I stuck with the series to the end, but it was hard. I found myself wanted to skip pages, but I didn’t. Hearts Grove Mystery series was a lot better.
April 10, 2024
Like many cozy series, books later in the series are not as good as the earlier ones. The situations become more and more ridiculous, there are inconsistencies and leaps in the plot line, and the protagonist sees things that everyone else, including the police, ignores. The lack of editing and proofreading was also frustrating.
But in the end, it did give me plenty of mindless reading as I recovered from a virus

A detectves widow and pastry chef-crime solver.
Margo has a passion for baking and an instinct for crime solving. She gets herself into some dangerous situations. She has an eye for details, (but her proof reader doesnt). Stories are interesting and and unique. She develops s working relationship with a detective and ends up marrying him in the last book. Fun cost mystery s

I thoroughly enjoyed this series. The last book was the only one where I was sure of who the bad guy was early in the story. I've also read all the books in the Hearts Grove series. If you're having withdrawal symptoms with the Margot Durand series ending, read Hearts Grove. I can't wait for the next installment!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this series during the mornings after breakfast and before bedtime on these winter days up north. I liked how new characters were added in each chapter and continued through the other books and became Margot's extended family and friends in investigating and solving murders.

Absolutely worth reading!!
I loved every story and character in this book series! Margot is an amazing baker with a knack for details! Adam, an amazing detective, pairs up with Margot to solve crimes that seem to pop up wherever Margot goes. A lot of mystery, laughs, crime solving and blossoming feelings!

I have read each one of these stories as they came out as a single book. You will love the characters in these stories and how Margot goes from a baker to a fighter of crimes against her family and friends. I voluntarily reviewed this box set.
December 14, 2018
Very enjoyable series.
Well written series. Enjoyed the mix of mystery and romance, presented in a clean, wholesome way. My only complaint is the incorrect use of pronouns after a preposition. For example: "for Margot and me" not "for Margot and I.". For me not for I .

Mysteries and baking
Each book followed Margot and her life and I absolutely loved getting to see each chapter in her life was unfolding. The mysteries had me wanting more and guessing right along with what we knew. All 12 in one was so much better for me not wanting to wait.

I thoroughly enjoyed this series. Margot was curious without being that annoying, helpless heroine. The characters were well-rounded and easy to like and the stories were entertaining. I found myself a little sad at the end, knowing I was saying goodbye to Margot and her friends.

Baker, investigator
Margot seems to be a great baker especially French creations but she also is nosy enough when dead bodies show up to help her friends and a certain detective solve the crimes. A Must Read! You will enjoy!
