Christmas Al Dente

A Southern Pasta Shop Mystery

By: Jennifer L. Hart

Narrated by: Suzanne Cerreta

'Tis the season for pasta and mayhem.

Andy Buckland is determined that nothing will interrupt her first Christmas with Malcolm Jones and her last holiday spent in her childhood home. When the family recipe book disappears from the Bowtie Angel, and Aunt Cecily threatens to put "The Eye" on the entire population of Beaverton if it isn't returned, Andy and Jones decide to put the eggnog on hold for a little old fashioned sleuthing. But as one secret leads to another and rumors are served up along with hot buttered penne, Andy can't shake the suspicion that her life is about to change forever.

Happy Christmas

Spending the holidays with Andy, Malcolm and the zany characters from this series is never dull. Andy's hilarious one liners makes this series worth reading.
Suzanne Cerreta brought her A- game voicing the gang.

Loved it

This is the 1st book I've listened to by this author and I can't wait to listen & read more of her books. So much fun! And the narrator was awesome!!!

Cute

Really cute and short. No murders. I’m new to the series and will listen to more. Narrator was good.

Heartwarming

This book even though it’s short gave me all the feels. This little novella is the second in the al dente series that is turning out to be fantastic. Cozy mystery with tons of heart and humor. With the holidays looming and problems piling up Andy is overwhelmed. That’s all I’m telling you. Seriously loved it. The narrator continues to do swimmingly though there is some things that should have been caught in editing. One second the narrator Sounds Normal then she sounds super close then back to normal. It only happened a few times but regardless I loved the story and the way she does all the characters.

Great short story

Feel good short story. Great holiday edition with the same great characters and would work well as a stand alone
