#15 Chapter 5 “Hi, girls,” Cinnamon greeted Katie, Suzanne, Becky, Mandy, and Jessica as they arrived at the candy store later that afternoon. Katie sniffed at the air. “Mmm. It always smells so yummy in here.” “You must be hungry for some candy,” Cinnamon teased. Katie grinned. Cinnamon was just the kind of person who should own a candy store. Her short brown hair was tinted with just a little bit of spicy red, sort of like gingerbread. Her eyes were as blue as blue raspberry lollipops, and her lips were as red as Red Hots. Most important of all, Cinnamon was a really sweet person. “Forget the candy,” Jessica interrupted. “We have something more important to talk to you about.” “More important than candy? Impossible,” Cinnamon joked. “Seriously,” Becky told her. “This is big. We have a mystery to solve.” “Oh.” Cinnamon sat down on a stool. “It does sound important.” “Suzanne has a secret admirer,” Becky confided. “And you’re the only person who may know who he is.”
