Sabotage, secrets, and stolen recipes. Can Kendra save her grandmother's legacy before Willow Creek Springs' Christmas-in-July festival begins?

When Kendra Hayes inherits her grandmother's bakery in a charming Montana town along the Madison River, she trades her corporate marketing life for the small community near Yellowstone National Park that she loved as a teenager. But just days before the festive Jolly July Jamboree and second round of the Reindeer Bake-Off heritage baking competition, her grandmother's treasured family recipes disappear.

Alongside her inquisitive cocker spaniel, Olive, Kendra dives into the mystery because without a long-time family recipe, she can't compete in the prize-winning round. Trouble deepens when someone sets fire to the legendary establishment. Childhood friend Liam McCallister-now a rugged carpenter and outdoor guide-steps up to help with repairs and cleanup. He soon adds sleuthing to his skill set as he, Kendra, and Olive uncover clues and discover hidden records. Was Kendra's beloved Granny involved in a mystery of her own?

Suspicions and secrets swirl like snow among rival bakers, longtime locals, and newbie wealthy ranchers. Christmas decorations pop up in shop windows, a beach-clothing-clad Santa gathers his antlered horses, and baking contestants prepare for the competition. Sabotage just might be on the menu.

Cake, Crime, & Cocker Spaniels blends western small town charm and cozy mystery fun with a dash of romance and a sprinkle of summertime Christmas magic.
