NEVER BOARD
A Daily Mystery Serial Part 5
by Sam Cheever
Releases June 10
The last installment in this 5-part cozy romance serialization.
Fractious boarders, broken appliances, leaky roofs, and a very distracting next-door neighbor who makes my engine rev. Jack Walters has a tendency to cloud my thoughts and turn me into a babbling idiot. Forget I mentioned him. I mean, the real problem is the dead body my plucky little blonde dachshund, Iris, found in the flower beds. No amount of training would have prepared me for that.

Killer Coffe Mysteries book 17
by Tonya Kappes
Released May 25th
When a nationally known author arrives in town to headline a prestigious writer’s retreat, Roxanne Bloom is more focused on crafting perfect lattes than getting caught in his plot twists.
