USA TODAY BESTSELLER!First book in the Death by Chocolate series Lindsay loves chocolate. It tastes good, it makes her feel good, it never cheats on her like her almost-ex-husband. It’s her best friend. But someone wants her dead and uses her weak spot—chocolate—to try to murder her. Lindsay’s only secret is the recipe for her chocolate chip cookies, but she is surrounded by neighbors with deadly … by neighbors with deadly secrets. Suddenly she finds herself battling poisoned chocolate, a psycho stalker, and a dead man who seems awfully active for a corpse.
Her best friend and co-worker, Paula, dyes her blond hair brown, hides from everybody and insists on always having an emergency exit from any room. Secrets from Paula’s past have come back to put lives in jeopardy.
Determined to help Paula, Lindsay enlists the reluctant aid of another neighbor, Fred, an OCD computer nerd. In spite of his mundane existence, Fred possesses tidbits of knowledge about such things as hidden microphones, guns, the inside of maximum security prisons and how to take someone down with a well-aimed kick to his chin.
As Lindsay battles the elusive stalker, poisoned chocolate, and the dead man, she will need more than a chocolate fix to survive. But that’s always a good start.

I enjoyed the authors sense of humor. It was a fun book and an ending I wasn’t expecting. I would recommend this book if you want something light to read.
Good combination of culinary and cozy mystery. Enjoyed learning about Death by Chocolate cafe and the owner. Well written- couldn’t solve the mystery until I was well into the book. The characters weren’t stupid and the action not predictable.
Will read more by this author

I loved this story. It was unpredictable, yet funny at times. Good read!
Entertaining afternoon read with fun characters.
There is a strong emphasis on chocolate. While I like chocolate, the references were over the top for me. Nonetheless, I found that the story progressed enough to keep me engaged to the end. The resolution did not satisfy me as much as the story.
Fun easy read
will buy the rest of the series
laughed a lot & the mystery of the book was enought to keep your attention
Enjoyed reading this book, looking forward to reading the whole series
