August 17, 2008: Jenny Partridge is having enough trouble keeping her dance studio afloat between the bills and the psycho dance moms. When the mother of Taylee, the most talented dancer Jenny has, is poisoned by the cookie dough Jenny sold as a fundraiser, this heat up even more. Jenny finds herself attracted to the hunky police detective Tate Wilson who considers her a suspect. Then she is shot at. Her studio is bombed. Plus Taylee is missing. Can Jenny help find Taylee and still pull off her Nutcracker performance? Can she help solve the murder to take some of the pressure off? I loved this cozy mystery. I can't wait to read more in this series. Jenny is so much fun. And the psycho dance moms definitely keep things interesting! And that makes for plenty of suspects as well. Having danced as a youngster, I could easily see the studio and activities. The author does a great job of bringing that world to life. I highly recommend this book.

May 16, 2007: This was a fun book to read. Even though it was about a murder the author kept me busy enjoying the life and actions of the main character who was a dance teacher. She certainly had a chaotic life but the book kept moving.
