Florist Lily Schmidt can handle just about any emergency if it involves flowers, but when a box of hydrangeas she needs for a wedding is actually a drug shipment gone wrong, she could risk everything. Her business... her life... and even her heart.


Handsome DEA agent Devlin Pierce's plan is to solve the shipment mystery in a couple of days and collect the puzzle pieces to take down the bad guys. But he has entered the world of weddings and flowers; Lily's world. The woman with her lists and post-it notes is not his type, but he's finding it harder to imagine a day without her. He may have just found the one thing he wasn't looking for.


The Poppy Drop is the beginning of the Lily List Mystery Series, introducing Lily and Devlin in their first adventure together.


Lily's world will never be the same again!

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

C. L. Bauer resides in her hometown of Kanas City, home to some of the best barbecue, restaurants, theaters, and football (when the Chiefs are having a good year) in the country. In 2018, she returned to writing with the publishing of her first novel The Poppy Drop, a Lily List Mystery. She blended humor with wedding flowers (her family has owned the same flower business since before World War II) to create a world for her character, Lily. When you are involved in the wedding industry there are plenty of stories and characters. It's easy to write a novel based on events that have actually happened and people you've enjoyed meeting over the years.

C. L. Bauer loves meeting her readers and listening to what they think will happen next and their pleas to not kill a certain character they love. When she's not writing or designing wedding flowers, she keeps in touch with her family and friends, enjoys a good cup of coffee and going out to breakfast, traveling, binging on English murder mysteries, and anything Disney. She's particularly fond of Eeyore, Chip and Dale (the furry ones with hips) and always cries when she sees the castle.

C. L. Bauer can be reached on social media everywhere including Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. You can read about upcoming books and promotions, and sign up for her free newsletter at www.clbauer.com. Email her at clbauerkc@gmail.com.

A Perfect Beach Read
I read this book for our December book club meeting and really enjoyed the positive vibe and light feel during the crazy holidays. Lily is a real life, intelligent lady that has to deal with the life path she has chosen even if it's not her first preference. The surrounding characters are funny, lovable and fit well into the story. I wish there was more details about the history of Lily's Flower Shop with the preceding 3 generations. (maybe in a future story)If you want an easy, quick read for a week-end or to curl up on the couch, check out this story.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great cozy mystery!
Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2020

With lots of weddings and two misplaced ice blocks, florist Lily Shmidt became the focus of an investigation that seemed to be never-ending. It didn't help that the federal agent assigned to the investigation was a tall, handsome man who was assigned to follow her everywhere she went. With a plethora of weddings that needed her shop's flowers, she was swamped with work and glad to have an extra set of hands to help. As the investigation dragged on, she and DEA Agent Devlin Pierce became friends. You'll just have to read the book to see how it all ends, but I promise you'll love every minute you spend reading this delightful mystery.

I loved this book. It was a little slow to begin and I thought about not reading it, but I am so glad that I read it. It has some very exciting moments which make it a definite page turner. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading a good clean mystery with a wonderful romantic comedy thrown in.

This book had some interesting events bringing in the DEA, FBI and the Cartel which was very intriguing. The only thing I didn't like was Lilly's constant fight or flight negative attitude. I'm hoping she'll be a lot more positive in the next book.
