Synopsis

As a reporter for the Pennysaver, Lucy is assigned a puff piece on upscale Chanticleer's Chocolates. But when a local fisherman drowns suspiciously, Lucy's certain her investigative skills could be put to better use. Everyone is shocked when Fern's Famous Fudge loses its status as 'Best Candy on the Coast' to Chanticleer's pricey newfangled confections. And Lucy soon discovers sultry store manager Tamzin Graves is only too eager to serve her male clientele. Leaving a throng of jealous women in her wake, it's almost no surprise when Tamzin is the next to turn up dead, covered in chocolate. Could a bitter ex-wife be behind the crimes? As Lucy closes in on the culprit, she may find herself locked in the clutches of a half-baked killer...

Goodreads review by Cozy Reader Lady on February 10, 2025

"Chocolate Covered Murder (Lucy Stone #18)" by Leslie Meier is a little Valentine's Day Themed. Lots of chocolate talk. Unfortunately, for about 75% of the book Lucy is hyper focused on her weight and being on a diet. It's more annoying than it usually is in these books. Then it flips to a focus on......more

Goodreads review by Cindie on September 15, 2023

I love a good cozy mystery but this one missed the mark for me. This was the first Lucy Stone I've read, I read it for book club, and I wasn't impressed. I thought the writing was too unnecessary in a lot of places. I mean, I didn't need a whole diatribe on romance and what women think. It felt like......more
