I loved the first book in this series and immediately wanted to read this one. In fact, I wanted to read it so much that I purchased a copy before I got my review copy. Yes, this series is that good!
This book again follows our main character Katrina and her love interest the good detective Todd. Katrina has always maintained she would wait for her prince charming. But little did she know that he would end up being a divorced detective in the force. At least he’s a Christian though.
The mystery in this book comes about from a dead body on campus during a Regency event that the college is hosting. Per normal Katrina gets involved and helps out the detective. Of course, she doesn’t think the person that they think is guilty is really guilty and she aims to help prove it!
It is such a fun read. I loved getting to know the characters even more and meeting a few new ones. It’s also fun seeing Katrina try to matchmake for her friend. Now the mystery. Let’s just say it’s a bit twisted and you’re going to love it!

A Great Cozy Plus...
Welcome back to the sleepy college town of Wilkester, where murder and mayhem lurk beneath the calm exterior. Cafeteria manager Travis Melford has been killed right during the Regency conference held at the college. Adjunct English professor Katrina Peters comes to the rescue of her friend, Dr. Susan Langton, accused of the murder.Snuffed Out, #2 The Wilkester Mysteries by Barbara Cornthwaite, is a fun cozy mystery plus.The plus stands for a strong faith emphasis with a clear gospel message. It also represents the fact that fostering is a side subject well-explored and truthfully presented. You will feel deeply for Kim and Ed and Becky, all foster parents, as well as the children they seek to nurture.For me, a good cozy has romance. Snuffed Out does and it’s enlightening to see Katrina and detective Todd Mason’s relationship move so slowly and discover the maddening unknowns about that by the novel’s end.Occasional humor had me bursting out in laughter at various points. I am more than ready for my next visit to Wilkester.I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author and publisher through Celebrate Lit. I voluntarily left this review, and all opinions are my own.Notable Quotables:”...But time is moving so slowly. Like a turtle walking through tar.””...your problem is that you’re trying to face situations right now that God isn’t asking you to face.”
