Review: Bait and Swiss by Korina Moss
In Korina Moss's Bait and Swiss, Yarrow Glen’s newest business gives one unlucky resident the swiss of death.
It’s been almost two years since Willa Bauer opened Curds & Whey in Yarrow Glen, and both cheesemonger and cheese shop are thriving in the Sonoma Valley. While Willa doesn’t eat chocolate, it’s true that life is like a box of chocolates. Unfortunately, life’s latest curveball is that Willa’s ex fiancé and ex-best friend—the reason for her chocolate aversion—are opening a chocolate pop-up shop across the street. By the end of the shop’s first day, the town’s newest reporter is the victim of death by chocolate. Now Willa’s ex wants her to be Swiss Congeniality, solve the case, and save the day. As much as Willa wants to hit him with the nearest cheese wheel, she can't stop herself from saying yes. And it’s not long before tourists decide to stay clear of town until the killer is caught. To save Yarrow Glen, Willa and Team Cheese have some work to do.

Review: This was another excellent book in the Cheese Shop Mystery series! I loved getting more info on Willa's past, in the form of her ex fiance and ex best friend's presence in the book. While we already knew the basics from previous novels, getting to read about her interactions with them gave more light to the situation. I was surprised by the ending, (I figured it out right before Willa does!) and thought the mystery aspect was really well written. As always, I love getting appearances from all of her friends, plus the other people in town, including ones we haven't seen much in recent books. Overall, this is one of my favorite cozy mystery series, and I highly recommend it!
I received an e-ARC from the publisher.
