Crust No One by Winnie Archer

There are so many things I like about this book; the characters, the plot, the bakery, the description of the bread, the touches of Spanish thrown in here and there, and the possibility of romance. All of these things add up to an enjoyable book in a new series which I hope will continue. 

Ivy is working in the bakery helping Olaya get ready for the festival and visiting with The Blackbird ladies when Mustache Hank stops by with a produce order. The next thing you know the festival is here and Mustache Hank has disappeared.  Ivy, along with her high school boyfriend, Miguel, the highly entertaining Mrs. Branford, and the Blackbird Ladies try to find the newly divorced Hank at his son's request. As they investigate, a peek into Hank's life uncovers some uncomfortable secrets and a man who may have decided to disappear on his own. 

This author is great at weaving a tale and getting the reader invested in her characters. I thoroughly enjoyed reading both books in the series and hope there will be more and we'll be able to watch Miguel and Ivy repair their high school romance, now that they are adults.

I received an advanced reader's copy of Crust No One from NetGalley. This review contains my thoughts and opinions.
