THINK POSITIVE! HUGS!

The first book in a new series and a new author for me. The covers caught my attention and said READ ME!, I was not disappointed as I found a variation of cozy and an entertaining story about Winifred (Fred) Blake creating a new life for herself and her Corgi, Watson. The MC’s are develop and the descriptions of the area are good. There is a romance starting with the detective, yet the police interaction is not great. I am looking forward to the next book.
She has returned to her childhood home to open her dream of a bookstore. Her first experience with her neighbors is negative. Later she finds the person dead in her new shop. Her stepfather is accused of the murder and will lead Fred to meet her neighbors. It will take her on a journey to a legal marijuana store and Estes National Park. Will she find an answer to clear her stepfather? The ending will surprise.
