Bewitched meets Murder She Wrote.
Amelia Spelled believes in baking it til you make it . . . But when her boyfriend dumps her, her boss fires her, and she's evicted from her rental thanks to one too many cooking mishaps, Amelia finds herself all dressed up with nowhere to dough. Amelia is just about ready to pie for help when a handwritten letter is slipped under her door.
Now she is off to country Australia, where a mysterious house is not the only thing that awaits -- there is also the revelation that her ancestors were witches. But if Amelia thinks she'll have time to process these new developments, she's dead wrong. There is a murder, and she's the number one suspect.
Will Amelia cook up a way to solve the crime? And just what -- or who -- does the dashing man lurking in the shadows want?

Book 1 in a charming and delightful paranormal cozy mystery series from USA Today Bestselling author, Morgana Best.

Reviewed in Australia on 12 March 2019

While this is very similar to a lot of other paranormal cosy mysteries, it was well written, and had a cast of characters that each had their own quirky personalities. The mystery itself was well done, and the identity of the killer was well disguised.

I found this book to be well thought out from the end of one lifestyle to a new one. It was exciting, interesting, deadly, humorous, fast paced with engaging characters that I just have to know more about. So good, don’t miss it. Totally clean to thoroughly enjoy.

Reviewed in Australia on 6 January 2016

Really enjoyed the first book of this series. Perfect lazy afternoon read with the right amount of the fantastical mixed into the mystery and humour. An easy, well written and entertaining read filled with fun characters and great story. Definitely recommend to those who enjoy their murder mysteries minus the gore/horror/dark but instead with some lightness and humour. Oh, and hard to guess 'whodunit' which, in my opinion, is always a bonus. Enjoy!!!

This was a great start to a new series. I enjoyed it very much. You didn't really find out who was the murderer right until the end., just as it should be. I am Australian and it is nice to see books set in our beautiful country. I will read the rest of the series.

2.0 out of 5 stars The heroine is a basket case . . . And not in an interesting or enticing way.
Reviewed in Australia on 28 July 2022
Verified Purchase
Apparently the heroine of this book suffered the loss of her parents in early life, was shunted around uncaring relatives for most of her childhood and emancipated and on her own from the age of 17. Unbelievably this has left her with the all street smarts of a rabbit with mixamatosis and the resilience of a bag of jello. She is as irritating as nails on a blackboard.

A witch who doesn't know she is one. A day when everything goes wrong and a letter from someone who she doesn't know let the fun begin. There are lots of theams here that are common in paranormal cozys in this look but Morgana has done an excellent job in incorporating them in her book.

Reviewed in the United States on 28 November 2015

This is my second Morgana Best story in 2 days. Yep! Miss Spelled is a delicious mix of mystery and humor. Mix in some outlandish witches and this one has some spice. When Amelia loses everything she is shocked but then an aunt she has never met dies and leaves her a bakery. That made it really fun because in truth Amelia cannot cook! On one of her first days in business a seemingly healthy man kills over after only one bite of a cupcake!. The only good news... she didn't cook it. LOL. What is great about this story is the balance between the mystery and the light hearted humor of the characters and the situations they find themselves in. There are so many suspects and quite frankly they could all be guilty for different reasons, that I simply never did figure out on my own who the killer was. It had to be revealed for me. Though, once I got to the end, it made total sense to me. I have never read a Best book and not been surprised at the end. Oh, one more thing, I want to know more about Alder Vervain. Guess I am going to have to get the next one! I recieved this book in exchange for my honest review.
