(Delilah Horton #4)
by
For the first time in a long time, life is good. I've got a smokin' hot motorcycle man as my fiancé, the best friends a woman could have, a couple of great kids, and things have been relatively quiet on the PI front.
You know what that means... the other shoe was bound to drop sooner or later...

This series has become my "sugar crack" I love it as much as Delilah loves her cupcakes!
This one picks right up from the previous one. Our couple are home after their Hawaiian vacation and engaged, life is falling into a wonderful routine . . . and then the other shoe drops!
There are laughs, cries, new relationships, old friends.... and of course cupcakes! This is written in such a way that I felt I was right there with them (okay maybe sitting at a table looking over, but still!) The banter and ...more

This is the fourth book in the series and continues the adventures of Delilah . A single mother, turned PI turned lover of hot motorcycle loving men. You can read these out of order if you want but the whole series is a delightful romp so I say go for it and read them all!

This was a cute story from one of my favorite series. I loved the cast of characters and the friendships that they have with each other. The book picks up right where we left off and Lila and Cade are planning their wedding. I’ve been looking forward to them getting married and I would have liked to have had more Cade in this story. Lila while left alone to her own devices she gets herself in a situation. The scene with the chocolate cake was hilarious! I enjoyed the last few chapters of this bo

I don't want to see the series ending, so I hope the author plans to add more books to the series. It doesn't have to be from Delilah's point of view. I just want more books with this gank. I have grown to love them and this book felt like an ending which is unfair. The story was funny. I laughed at some parts and in others, I was just happy. The book was good and I loved it, so I am going to give it a nomination for my top books of 2018. Cade is not a part of it for some time which is a bad thi

I read the previous books almost 2 years ago but I liked them enough that I remembered what occurred so I wasn't lost in this one.
Book 4 of the series continues with Delilah's antics as she closes a couple cases,"rescues" her fiance, tries her hand St matchmaking and plans her wedding. The gang's all present and Cade's family add their own brand of Sweetness and crazy into the mix.

I love revisiting this world
I love Lilah and her world. This time her man is away but she has a few cases that keep her busy along with her upcoming wedding. It was a great read and I love the banter between Lilah and Cade.

There is a reason I keep coming back to this series and Bethany's writing...within the pages you will laugh, you will swoon, you will be taken for a ride, a journey...an adventure. The Cupcakes series has definitely been a fun ride. Love, cupcakes, bad guys and heroines and heroes saving the day....what more can a reader ask for.

I binged the first three books of the Cupcakes series in two days last year. I have been obsessed with Cade and Lila ever since. These books really shouldn't be read as a standalone as each builds on the one before it.
The fourth book picks up with Lila and Cade home from their Hawaiian vacation and planning their wedding. When Cade has to go off the grid for the Club, Lila is left to planning and crazy antics with no one to rein her in. Lila can get into the craziest trouble and she always has m ...more

There are NO WORDS for how much I adore this entire series!! I was lucky enough to get Cupcake Explosion, but when I started to read it I realized there was a lot I was missing, so I went on a search for any other books. I was on a deadline to get this one finished, but I knew I had to read the others to get the full story. WOW!! I devoured the other three books in less than two days. I am hooked now! I need everything Bethany Lopez has every written. This is so much more than a FIVE STAR READ!!

This is book 4 in the series and it does not disappoint. I cracked up at the very beginning with the I may just have a cupcake explosion in my pants. This one was a little more serious in my opinion with Cade off the grid for most of the book, and we get to see Lila in action as a PI. I love seeing her working with her friends.

Lila has one idea and Cade, he has ideas of his own, “I think you should take off all your clothes, go into the bathroom, turn on the shower, and bend over the counter.” Lila can see through her man's crap, “don’t tell me not to get worked up, that gets me worked up,” I complained. Cade shot me a sexy grin, but I wasn’t falling for it. “Just say it,” I told him..." When Lila is fire up, it amuses Cade to no end, "...you ain’t getting none of this.” I waved my hand over my body and wiggled in my

🖋️ SNEAK PEEK ⭐⭐⭐💫 3.5 STARS REVIEW 🖋️
Delilah "Lila" & Cade's relationship continues to woo me. The constant butting of heads when they are working, the banter, and the overflowing of emotions from different directions is priceless. Gotta love Cade's family. Plus I cannot help that I picture Jason Momoa. Hee hee.

Cupcake Explosion has given me a new addiction when it comes to sweets! Ha Delilah and Cade are my ideal couple. I was laughing and getting over heated with this one all at the same time. Cade sure knows how to talk to a woman behind closed doors. All I can say is Lila is a lucky gal! So yes ladies, all the sexy time in this book is HOT!

Loads of fun and action in this story leading up to the wedding of these two love birds. But of course when things happen and they always do, she finds herself in trouble again. I love these sweet romances from this author. They are just enough story, characters and laughs. I haven't read all of the books in the series but the two I have read have been funny and good.
Love this author's style and the characters she gave us this go around are perfect in every way!!

I received this book in exchange for an honest review. I love the cupcake series by Bethany Lopez. I love sweets and add hot men and chemistry makes it even sweeter. If you haven't read this series yet you must purchase and read. You will not be disappointed.
This is number 4 and a good way to read about "what will happen now that..."
It was funny, and got me hooked back again to the character that I met before.
No spoilers.
Another good book from this author.
Cade & Lila what can I say they are as yummy together as the cupcakes that Lila is addicted to! LOL This is a nice addition to the series! You get a little more of Cade's family and of course more of Lila's group of friends How could you not love it!

Lila, the Queen of All Things Cupcakes, is back and how I missed her! After her fun and suspenseful Hawaiian vacation with her twins and boyfriend, Cade, our favorite private eye has returned home. Cupcake Explosion begins with Lila getting back to her everyday life, except she will soon be marrying her sexy man. Of course, in true Lila style, her trip down the aisle has to have some type of humor and drama...everything fans love about this series.

Cupcake Explosion by the outstanding author Bethany Lopez is the fourth book in her Cupcakes Series. I recommend to read the books in order. The previous books are Always Room for Cupcakes; Cupcake Overload and Lei´d with Cupcakes. And I confess I´m addicted to cupcakes and this series. I just binge-read all books again and I can´t get enough of Lila, Cade and their friends.

I listened to the audiobook version of this book.
This was a pretty quick listen for me. We get to watch as Lila investigates a few cases as well as the case of her missing fiance. This author is new to me and this is the first book of hers that I have read/listened to and I like her style. It is a light romantic mystery but the characters are quirky and likeable. Since this is the 4th book of the series but the 1st I have listened to, I think that there are things that I wasn't able to fully gr ...more

This was such a deeply touching and emotion ravishing story that I love so much! It reached inside me and laid claim to my heart before I even knew what would happen to these wonderful characters. Above all, I knew that I would enjoy this journey no matter how hard or how easy it got, and I was so right.. The storyline left me with bated breath as I watched these amazing characters find their way while loving and fighting the enter time. The strong and devoted family and friends left me in tears

I love this series so much! It’s fun, sexy, and suspenseful and I adore all of the characters!
With Cupcake Explosion, we get another great story. Lila & Cade’s life continues, giving us more laughs and toe-tingling moments. More shenanigans. More Cade. Need I say more?

Cupcake Explosion is the 4th and final book of the series. Lila survived meeting Cade's family and being kidnapped in Hawaii, now all she needs to survive is her wedding. When Cade tells her he's going to have to go off the grid for a couple weeks right before their planned nuptials, Lila doesn't have a good feeling about it.

I thought this was just an adorably sweet book! I gobbled it up in just one bite... err... evening I mean. So I haven't read or listened to the other books and I knew I was missing some goods... some fun inside jokes and whatnot. However, this was an adorable book by itself missing a bit or not. Delilah is wonderful and her friends are completely endearing and so likable. It makes me want to go back and listen to all the other books in the series.

This book was a really good read!!!
The banter between Lila and her friends had me laughing throughout. Whether it was one being a little over dramatic, or the obsession with desserts, these girls were entertaining. And had each other’s backs. We didn’t get a whole lot of Cade in this book, but when we did, he was kicking butt, being sexy, and just everything we love about alpha heroes.
The suspense elements were great, and there were definitely some shocking parts in it that had me tearing up.
