Blood, Sweets and Tears (BEWITCHED BY CHOCOLATE SERIES ~ Book 4) (Bewitched by Chocolate Cozy Fantasy Witch Mysteries)

Magical chocolates, missing jewels and murder... When novice witch Caitlyn Le Fey heads to the outdoor cinema festival at a beautiful Cotswolds manor, the last thing she expects is for the evening to end in murder. But when a dead man is found with fang marks in his neck and her old vampire uncle, Viktor, is arrested, Caitlyn must use all her newfound magic powers to clear his name. Sleuthing isn't simple, however, with so many strangers arriving at her grandmother's enchanted chocolate shop: there's the secretive village tenant with creepy Goth tastes, the inscrutable new butler at Huntingdon Manor--and a charming Frenchman keen to win Caitlyn's heart. And that's before she has to master the art of making the perfect chocolate soufflé or deal with a Levitation spell gone horribly wrong! Still, at least she has the help of a friendly English mastiff and her naughty kitten, Nibs, not to mention her sassy American cousin and all the village gossips! Then a wild goose chase leads to an unexpected discovery and Caitlyn realises that she's missed a clue under her nose all along. Can she solve the mystery--and maybe even discover Lord James Fitzroy's real feelings for her? Or will she succumb to a vampire's fatal bite? WARNING: May contain traces of "Hahaha!"
