5 Star Review by Chatting About Cozies (Linda Langford)
I think this debut para-cozy is a fantastic story! Author Rose Pressey shines in her creative expression with this engaging plot. I adore the eye-catching cover with the cute chihuahua, Van Gogh, who is artist Celeste Cabot’s companion and protector. I always enjoy festival settings and this Summer Arts & Crafts Fair in Gatlinburg, Tennessee is also the perfect set-up for a crime scene.
When one of Celeste’s paintings brings a ghost to life, creepy things begin to happen, including the slaying of the unlikeable festival manager. Unfortunately, Celeste has doubts about the innocence of many of her fellow vendors. She meets two men during the investigation who show interest in getting to know her on a personal level, and I wondered which one Celeste would choose.
MURDER CAN MESS WITH YOUR MASTERPIECE charmed me from the beginning with its delightful setting, wonderful characters, adorable pets, and an overall alluring mystery! 5 Stars! As an extra treat, the author includes delicious recipes for recipes for readers to try.
I reviewed a digital arc provided by NetGalley and Kensington Publishing for an honest, unbiased review. Thank you.

This little chihuahua is so darn cute and it's name Van Gogh is so original. Rose Pressey is quite a creative author. I have added her book to my want to read list.
ReplyDeleteThis new series is different, and interesting, as Rose’s stories usually are. 😊 📚
