Café Amaretto

A Zion Sawyer Cozy Mystery, Book 10

Zion Sawyer is about to marry the man of her dreams. Her focus has narrowed to planning her wedding and running her coffee shop, but when Condor asks her to meet with him, she isn’t prepared for what the Rusty Bucket’s leader wants.

Fellow motorcycle gang member Hatchet Henry reveals that he was part of a 1970s bank robbery, which resulted in the death of a security guard. His accomplice, Whistling Willie, has always sworn he didn’t kill the guard, but he’s serving a life sentence at Corcoran for the crime. Now Willie is dying, and he wants one last taste of freedom.

Condor asks Zion to help prove Willie innocent. Does the Redheaded Sleuth have one more criminal investigation in her, or will she decide to honor Tate’s wishes and never take on another case again?

Great Story

Nice light detective story. You do not need to read other books in the series to follow the story but I recommend all of them. I always enjoy Kelley Hazen's narration.

An Awesome Conclusion to the Series

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the narrator and extremely enjoyable. As Zion and Tate wedding is approaching fast when Condor introduces Zion to a friend with a mystery that needs to be solved. But Zion doesn’t know if she wants to help someone in prison for a murder during a bank robbery. If this isn't bad enough, Zion’s new employee’s cupcakes have gone viral and again the café is overrun and Deimos wants llamas at her wedding. As always, an awesome story with great characters that makes you laugh and cry, sometimes at the same moment. This combination of author and narrator is just pure enjoyment. Looking forward to the next book.

Enjoyed the book

I love this series and all the characters all are different some serious some quirky. Love how Zion always helps somebody in her businesses and detective work. Great narration

Great Series!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Every book, every story is enjoyable and unputdownable. This was a satisfying end to a wonderful series. Looking forward to the next adventure! Ms. Hazen’s voices are perfect for the characters. Overall, nicely done!

Everything a Mystery Lover Could Hope For

As always, this series delivers the best of the best—a fun, lighthearted mystery that’s impossible to put down. I love each character and their unique personalities. It was so satisfying to see a wrongfully convicted man finally get justice; it was well-deserved and a beautiful 'wish come true' for a dying prisoner.
Does Zion’s sister finally have the baby? Does Zion marry the love of her life? There are so many questions left hanging, and if you’re curious, you’ll just have to get the book and listen to find out! The narrator’s performance is stellar as always, bringing every twist to life.
I have to say, Deimos has become my absolute favorite (though Zion is a very close second). He has this magnetic quality that keeps me hooked on his every move. Honestly, a series dedicated to him and Jaguar is exactly what we need next!
