Pies and Prejudice (A Charmed Pie Shoppe Mystery series) by Ellery Adams

This is a fun cozy mystery for foodie lovers.  There is plenty of charm and lovable characters.  This book was released July 3, 2012.   I'm looked forward to the second book in this series due to come out March 2013.  I love that her when she finds trouble, her mom and aunts gather round her to offer comfort and help.

When the going gets tough, Ella Mae LaFaye bakes pies. So when she catches her husband cheating in New York, she heads back home to Havenwood, Georgia, where she can drown her sorrows in fresh fruit filling and flakey crust. But her pies aren't just delicious. They're having magical effects on the people who eat them--and the public is hungry for more.

Discovering her hidden talent for enchantment, Ella Mae makes her own wish come true by opening the Charmed Pie Shoppe. But with her old nemesis Loralyn Gaynor making trouble, and her old crush Hugh Dylan making nice, she has more than pie on her plate. and when Loralyn's fiancé is found dead--killed with Ella Mae's rolling pin--it'll take all her sweet magic to clear her name.
