Great series. This book was really fun to read. Forgot how much drama high-schoolers have. Love that Emily is starting to heal after losing her husband. Really good story. Got a little bogged down in the descriptions of the falls, but all in all a solid story.

I really liked this book! I read one of the previous books as well and had enjoyed it, but it covered enough of the backstory that it could be read as a standalone as well. This was a great small town cozy mystery with characters I really liked, at least the characters I was supposed to like! Emily was a great amateur sleuth and Dep the cat had a fun personality as well. Good mystery, excellent relationships including friendship and several potential romances and a writing style that kept me interested throughout the story. I'll definitely read more from Ginger Bolton!

This is the first book in the Deputy Donut Mystery series I've read, and I didn't feel like I was missing too much backstory to understand or enjoy it.

Donut shop owner Emily Westhill thinks someone might be stalking her or her new assistant, a popular gymnast. When donuts from her shop are used in combination with a firework to kill someone during the 4th of July fireworks, and the creepy stalker insists he saw Emily light the fuse, she knows she needs to investigate. When her assistant disappears, Emily worries the stalker may have kidnapped her.

This is a fun cozy mystery about a small town and the protagonist's donut shop. Her cat Dep is as much a character in the story as the humans. It was a cute story that featured an action-packed finale.

This is the 3rd book in this series. Emily uses the vintage polish car in the 4th of July parade and then gives away festive donuts at the picnic during the day. A little boy says it is his birthday and they make him a firecracker donut cake. He misplaced his bag and it later is found in the park where fireworks are set off later that night with firecracker in it and it explodes and kills someone.

Emily sets out to find the killer before she is killed herself

In the mean time her friendd are trying to her hooked up with a certain police detective.

Looking forward to the next book in the series

I totally loved the fast paced, fun cozy mystery filled with good friends, a compelling plot, a lovely setting and, of course, delicious donuts. Emily and her father-in-law Tom (the father of her late husband Alec) are the owners of Deputy Donuts in Fallingbrook, Wisconsin. It's the Fourth of July and the town is celebrating with a parade featuring a king and queen who are supposed to be riding in Emily's restored old Ford. But when Taylor, the queen turns out to be a diva, she not only refuses to ride in it but she also makes nasty comments about several people. At the fireworks later that night Taylor is killed when a firework placed in the grass behind her explodes. A photographer, who no one knew before that day, starts out by taking pictures of Emily throughout the day and later accuses her of the crime - photoshopping her picture in places it doesn't belong to finger her. With the help of her good friends, including detective Brent - Alec's former partner- the truth finally emerges. This was a wonderful story with complex characters who I was rooting for from the first page to the last and I look forward to hearing more about Emily in future books.

Jealously Filled Donuts is a entertaining cozy mystery with interesting characters and storyline. Well written.

I liked this book. I've read a previous book in the series and this one has many of the same characters in it. I liked that it feels more like a group effort and that Emily isn't investigating all alone. I was surprised by who the killer was, I had no idea that's who it was. #JealousyFilledDonuts #NetGalley
