Synopsis

Veterinary technician Carrie Kennersly, who owns the Barkery & Biscuits dog bakery and Icing on the Cake human bakery, has been holding lots of rescue animal adoption events at her store. She has also been solving a lot of murders lately, which sometimes puts her into danger. Carrie’s relationship with veterinarian Dr. Reed Storme has been escalating, too, despite his telling her often to butt out of those murder investigations and stay safe. But when Reed is accused of killing a nasty a former veterinary colleague who is now trying to compete with him, he seems a lot more amenable to having successful amateur detective Carrie butt back in again. Can Carrie clear Reed—or does she care too much for a killer?

Goodreads review by Kelly

**I voluntarily read this ARC** The mystery was decent but it dragged a bit. It took way too long for the victim to be killed, and the pacing never really picked up from there. I was surprised by the killer, but by then I really didn't care who did it.......more

GNab Pick and Chews is a sweet novel, a nice change of pace and one I thoroughly enjoyed. The protagonists are well rounded and likable, the bad guys are camouflaged until late in the tale, and the dogs are all adorable.
