Just as recently-single Bitsie George is settling into her new life as a professional baker, things get complicated.

Bitsie's too-handsome-to-be-real shop assistant, Nick, gives his grandfather a dozen cherry chocolate cupcakes to share with his friends at Shady Grove retirement home.
When one of the cupcakes turns out to be laced with a potentially fatal dose of Grandpa Roscoe's heart medicine, and his romantic rival for the affections of Miss Lavinia Fay ends up in the hospital, Grandpa Roscoe becomes a prime suspect.
But was it really Roscoe who poisoned that cupcake, or is there someone else with murder on his mind?
It's up to Bitsie to find the real culprit before Roscoe gets arrested, or, worse yet, the poisoner strikes again.
