<blockquote><div style="text-align: center;"><strong>From author Lena Gregory comes a hunt for more than just treasure...</strong></div><p style="text-align: center;">Danika Delany is loving running her uncle's old fashioned malt shop on eastern Long Island and putting her own modern spin on the treats they serve. Life is finally looking up for her! That is, until local billionaire Maxwell Crumbholtz dies and leaves his fortune in the form of a treasure hunt. Chaos descends on Watchogue, and Dani and the rest of the gang from the Coffee & Cream Café join the melee when they enter the contest, try to decipher the clues, and go in search of the treasure. But Dani digs up more than she expected when she discovers a dead body buried instead of a treasure! To make matters worse, a witness claims to have seen Dani at the scene of the murder. Now, instead of a four-billion-dollar payday, Dani is on the hunt for a killer.</p>

<div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-36364" height="300" src="https://www.escapewithdollycas.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/lena-gregory-portrait-256x300.jpg" width="256" /></div><p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Lena Gregory</strong> is the author of the Bay Island Psychic Mysteries, which take place on a small island between the north and south forks of Long Island, New York, the All-Day Breakfast Café Mysteries, which are set on the outskirts of Florida’s Ocala National Forest, the Mini-Meadows Mysteries, set in a community of tiny homes in Central Florida, and the Coffee & Cream Café Mysteries, which take place in a small town on the south shore of eastern Long Island, New York.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Lena grew up in a small town on the south shore of eastern Long Island, but she recently traded in cold, damp, gray winters for the warmth and sunshine of central Florida, where she now lives with her husband, three kids, son-in-law, and four dogs. Her hobbies include spending time with family, reading, and walking. Her love for writing developed when her youngest son was born and didn’t sleep through the night. She works full-time as a writer and a freelance editor and is a member of Sisters in Crime.</p>

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Mona Moon and her new husband, Robert Farley, Duke of Brynelleth, are on their honeymoon at last. They have just boarded the RMS Majesty ocean liner. The couple are looking forward to visiting Robert’s ancestral English home, Brynelleth, and then off to Paris before winding up on the Italian Riviera. After a romantic evening of dancing until the wee hours of the night, Mona and Robert discover their suite has been ransacked and Mona’s jewelry, supposedly secured in their stateroom, has been stolen.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Mona is horrified, as some of the jewelry belongs to the Brynelleth Estate and were cherished pieces of Robert’s mother. The ship’s crew searches the ocean liner, and a gold brooch turns up in a bartender’s cabin. It is the same bartender who served Mona earlier in the evening. The only problem is the bartender has been murdered and the rest of the jewelry is still missing.</p>

There is an addendum at the end of the mystery to give more information. My goal is to entertain my readers, but if they learn a little something along the way—well, then we are both happy.”</p>

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Felicity Jin grew up literally hanging onto Mom’s apron strings in their magical bakery in the quaint town of Pixie, California. Her mother’s enchanted baked goods, including puffy pineapple buns and creamy egg tarts, bring instant joy to all who consume them. Felicity has always been hesitant in the kitchen herself after many failed attempts, but a takeout meal gone wrong inspires her to craft some handmade fortune cookies.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">They become so popular that Felicity runs out of generic fortunes and starts making her own personalized predictions. When one customer’s ill-fated fortune results in his murder, Felicity’s suspiciously specific fortune has the police focusing on her as the main culprit. Now Felicity must find a way to turn her luck around and get cleared from suspicion.</p>

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>A fading star, a puzzling death, and a mystery that must be solved!</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Veronica Vale spent a turbulent few years serving her country during the Great War - doing more than her role in the exchange network suggested! Now back on British soil and adjusting to life as an obituary writer for her uncle's newspaper, while caring for her ailing mother, Veronica has gotten used to a slower (and safer) pace of life.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Excitement comes from fun parties, walks with Benji, her beloved rescue dog, and volunteering at the Dogs' Home.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">When an old family friend, and former superstar of the theatre, Florence Sterling, is discovered dead in her dressing room at the Winter Garden Theatre in London, Veronica is curious to discover what happened to the sweet, funny, ruthlessly ambitious beauty.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Much to the dismay of her sometimes nemesis Inspector Templeton, Veronica is tasked with writing Florence's obituary. And what she learns will blow the roof off the theatre! That's if she survives to tell the tale.</p><div style="text-align: center;">***</div><p style="text-align: center;"><em>If you love witty dialogue, historical glamour, intrigue, and a fast-paced cozy mystery set in 1920s England, then you'll adore Kitty Kildare's unputdownable whodunits.</em></p>

When antique store owner Milton Cenford is found dead in a suit of armor, amateur sleuth Tarsey Quinston is determined to find the killer.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As quirky visitors arrive in town and create more questions than answers, Tarsey finds herself investigating rumors of a missing historic diary penned by a First Lady from Starport Cove and looking into paranormal activity.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Will the discovery of a mysterious hidden passageway and an encounter with a ghost lead Tarsey and her intuitive cat Silver down the path to danger? Or will they finally unveil the identity of the killer?</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Perfect for fans of Kate Carlisle and Victoria Gilbert, when a body is found in a hardware store, will Dawna Carpenter’s sleuthing measure up to find the killer?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Recent sexagenarian widow Dawna Carpenter thought running her own hardware store after the death of her husband was hard enough. With her adult daughter, April, moving back into town, and Darlene, the annoying boutique owner next door to her shop poking around, Dawna has her hands full. But when she finds a dead man in the bathroom of her store, with a framing hammer by his side, she’s in way over her head.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The victim, Warren Highcastle, was a land developer who was looking to purchase the old theater in town to build a new hotel. Dawna and April, worried about the implications of the crime scene at the hardware store, put themselves on the case. They soon learn that Warren had made quite a few enemies in his short amount of time in town. As the suspect list starts growing, so too do the threats against Dawna and April. Can Dawna and April nail the killer before they strike again?</p>

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Perfect for fans of Amanda Flower and Julie Anne Lindsey, when Kate Mulligan inherits her great uncle’s fruit orchard, she quickly realizes that apples aren’t the only thing that can have rotten cores.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">After losing her husband in a terrible car crash, thirty-five-year-old Kate is left to pick up the pieces of her life alone. Although she has physically recovered, she worries her spirit never will. But when she learns that she has inherited a fruit orchard in a small town just outside Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, from her great uncle Stan, she takes this as an opportunity ripe for the picking. Kate knew immediately what to do with it: open a cider house. Her hopeful plans fall far from the tree when she finds the body of the orchard manager, Carl Randolph, leaving her to figure out who is at the core of this murder.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">She had been in correspondence with Carl, who had agreed with her brilliant idea of opening a cider house. But not everyone is so quick to buy what she was selling—Uncle Stan’s lawyer, Robert Larabee, paints a less rosy financial outlook of the orchard’s past, present, and future.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Kate discovers that Carl had large, unexplained deposits to his bank account and it becomes clear that either he was blackmailing someone, or someone was paying him to keep quiet. Meanwhile, Kate and her neighbors receive offers to buy their property from a mysterious buyer. And there’s more than meets the eye with the neighboring orchard owner, Daniel Martinez, although Kate can’t quite put her finger on if it’s sweet or sour.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Will she be able to pick out the bad apple among the bunch before it’s too late?</p>

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>A missing child. A half-baked ransom demand. Can a community cop sift through clues and rescue the tot before teatime?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Sergeant Keya Varma’s culinary dreams come true as she joyfully opens her own café. And attending her sister’s wedding is the cherry on the cake. But her excitement sinks like a souffle when a customer’s little boy disappears.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Shaken as well as stirred into action, the part-time police officer joins the search, but she’s shattered when even a ransom payment doesn’t bring the rug rat back home.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">For Keya, justice is served with a side of scones, but can she save the child before the clotted cream turns sour?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Indulge in the Waterwheel Café cozy mystery series, where Keya Varma mixes crime with coffee and crêpes. If you crave appetising characters, a dash of humour, and a dollop of English charm, you’ll devour Victoria Tait's delicious tale.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>Bake your way into intrigue with Vanilla Chai and a Vanishing Victim today!</strong></em></p>

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>When a murder unleashes a widespread investigation through Crosbyville, children’s book author Pris and her trusty bloodhound, Bailey, must sniff out the truth before the whole town goes to the dogs.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After deciding that life as a teacher wasn’t right for her, Priscilla found inspiration for her first children’s book in her three-year-old bloodhound’s nose for truth, and so The Adventures of Bailey the Bloodhound was born. After the book’s massively pawsitive response led Pris to move back to her hometown of Crosbyville, Indiana, to continue the series, she’s surprised by how things have changed in the town, but even more so how they haven’t.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Pris is frustrated to discover that newly elected school board trustee Whitney Kelley—a former high school mean girl—is intent on making Crosbyville more competitive by eliminating “frivolous spending” on the arts and social programs, including Pris and Bailey’s beloved pet-assisted reading program. A minor altercation between them isn’t anything unusual, but after Bailey sniffs out Whitney’s body in a bed of begonias, locals start hounding Pris and Bailey as suspects for the crime.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">With Bailey’s sharp senses and Pris’s hometown know-how, can they prove to the community that they’re all barking up the wrong tree?</p>

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;">On the other side of seventy, Maddie Sparks decides to spice up her life by changing her writing interests from cozy mysteries to romance. She also determines her appearance should reflect this transformation in her writing career. A sassy new haircut and more fashionable clothes complete the newer Maddie Sparks. Before she can begin this new chapter in her life, a stabbing death in the quiet country village she has made her home shocks the town's residents.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">When her son is accused of the murder, Maddie and the acting county sheriff come together to find the real killer. Their relationship soon blooms into more than one of shared determination to solve the murder. As they enjoy a hike in a nearby park, someone shoots the sheriff, barely missing Maddie. Another killer could be loose in the area, and the person may be closer to Maddie than she realizes. Maddie discovers parts of herself she didn't know existed: real life romance with the sheriff, a talent for sleuthing and room in her life for a fuzzy, orange cat named "Spike." This recent lease on life may be more exciting and more dangerous than Maddie expects.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #5b0f00;"><em><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;">About Lesley A. Diehl</span></em></span></h2>
<div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-167543" height="300" src="https://www.escapewithdollycas.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/les-diehl-197x300.jpg" width="197" /></div><p style="text-align: center;">Cows, Lesley learned growing up on a farm, have a twisted sense of humor. They chased her when she went to the field to herd them in for milking, and one ate the lovely red mitten her grandmother knitted for her. Determining that agriculture wasn’t a good career choice, instead she uses her country roots and her training as a psychologist to concoct stories designed to make people laugh in the face of murder. “A good chuckle,” says Lesley,” keeps us emotionally well-oiled long into our old age.” She is the author of the Eve Appel mysteries from Camel Press as well as several cozy mystery series and numerous short stories.

MacNeill Parker Tour & Giveaway<div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://amzn.to/46ZfwT6" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="2244" data-original-width="1400" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgqWSJh_DGuKUys2W4UvRCFcoF9Cv0Iur9V-0wwpdqO-cD6fRtBWPSiHDa1hWbxVpp3LvgMCpZF02BAd0OOTQDKNqy5c0_QXspLdw14vSmB1LAZweCMQnMjzGEH68tQKKU_4i0IuHmXrWUT7znEVCtizgB-NDeE7_b6JjmkQOFL7dI8J2Wm_0MJPTtzR4tJ=w400-h640" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Synopsis (from Amazon):When two murders strain the police force of a remote Alaskan fishing port, veterinarian Maureen McMurtry is tapped by Dutch Harbor’s police chief for forensic assistance. The doctor’s got a past she’d rather not discuss, a gun in her closet, and a retired police dog that hasn’t lost her chops. All come in handy as she deciphers the cause and time of death of a local drug addict washed ashore with dead sea lions and an environmentalist found in a crab pot hauled from the sea in the net of a fishing vessel. When her romantic relationship with a boat captain is swamped by mounting evidence that he’s the prime suspect in one of the murders, McMurtry struggles with her own doubts to prove his innocence. But can she? McMurtry’s pals, a manager of the Bering Sea crab fishery and another who tends Alaska’s most dangerous bar assist in unraveling the sinister truth .</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Author Bio: D. MacNeill Parker and her family are long time participants in the Alaska fishing industry. In addition to fishing for halibut, salmon, crab, and cod, she’s been a journalist, a fisheries specialist for the State of Alaska, and a seafood company executive. She’s travelled to most ports in Alaska, trekked mountains in the Chugach range, rafted the Chulitna River, worked in hunting camps, and survived a boat that went down off the coast of Kodiak. Parker’s been to Dutch Harbor many times experiencing her share of white knuckler airplane landings and beer at the Elbow Room, famed as Alaska’s most dangerous bar. While the characters in this book leapt from her imagination, they thrive in this authentic setting. She loves Alaska, the sea, a good yarn and her amazing family.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Website:<a href="https://www.dmparkerauthor.com/Author ">https://www.dmparkerauthor.com/Author </a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Twitter: @BookgalInstagram: @therealbookgal</div><div style="text-align: center;">Amazon: <a href="https://amzn.to/40rC4cD">https://amzn.to/40rC4cD</a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Goodreads:<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/198615907-death-in-dutch-harborPraise">https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/198615907-death-in-dutch-harborPraise</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">:“From the first scene, she evokes the real Dutch Harbor and the dynamic people who call it home.

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;">New York jewelry designer Genie Darling has returned to her childhood home in quaint Cobblewood Cove for one reason only: to sort through generations of old family heirlooms and hand anything of historical interest over to the local museum.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">But after a failed mugging attempt, and the appearance of a beautiful but ghostly young stranger in a vintage evening dress, Genie realises there’s something suspicious - and spooky - going on.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The glamorous and friendly spectre turns out to be Genie’s own great-great-aunt Adriana, who died in 1929 in mysterious circumstances.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">When there are more attempts on Genie and her home and her main suspect dies in a suspicious accident, she decides to get to the bottom of the mystery.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Does it have anything to do with Adriana’s death and reappearance?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">With her unflappable, pet-whispering aunt and cat Cleo by her side, Genie sets out to lay this ghost to rest by solving the mystery and unmasking the culprits.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">But digging up the past can be deadly …</p>

<div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-190714" height="278" src="https://www.escapewithdollycas.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CARMEN-RADTKE-300x278.jpg" width="300" /></div><p style="text-align: center;">Carmen has spent most of her life with ink on her fingers and a dangerously high pile of books and newspapers by her side.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">She has worked as a newspaper reporter on two continents and always dreamt of becoming a novelist and screenwriter.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">When she found herself crouched under her dining table, typing away on a novel between two earthquakes in Christchurch, New Zealand, she realised she was hooked for life.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The shaken but stirring novel made it to the longlist of the Mslexia competition, and her next book and first mystery, The Case Of The Missing Bride, was a finalist in the Malice Domestic competition in a year without a winner. Since then she has penned several more cozy mysteries, including the Jack and Frances series set in the 1930s.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Genie and the Ghost is her first paranormal cozy mystery.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Carmen now lives in Italy with her human and her four-legged family.</p>

<blockquote style="text-align: center;">Josiah is happy for her pals Lady Elsmere and Shaneika Mary Todd when broodmare Jean Harlow gives birth to a male foal sired by Comanche. The owners of both horses have high hopes the foal will become a stakes winner—maybe even win the Kentucky Derby. The foal has a broad chest, indicating significant lung capacity---important for winning races, but just like his daddy, the foal is ebony with a bad attitude.
Josiah and Shaneika visit dam Jean Harlow early one morning and are shocked to find the prized foal is missing. They frantically search Lady Elsmere’s and Josiah’s farms without success. It’s urgent they find the foal fast as he is not yet weaned and is too young to be separated from his mother. Who would snatch the feisty foal from his mother’s care? And equally important, why?</blockquote><div style="text-align: center;">Death By A HoneyBee

Besides loving history, Kentucky bourbon, and chocolate, Abigail loves honeybees and for many years made her living by selling honey at a farmers’ market like her protagonist, Josiah Reynolds. She is an award-winning beekeeper who has won many honey awards at the Kentucky State Fair including the Barbara Horn Award, which is given to beekeepers who rate a perfect 100 in a honey competition.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Miss Abigail has taken her knowledge of beekeeping to create a fictional beekeeping protagonist, Josiah Reynolds, who solves mysteries in the Bluegrass. While Miss Abigail’s novels are for enjoyment, she discusses the importance of a local sustainable food economy and land management for honeybees and other creatures.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">She currently lives on the Kentucky River in a metal house with her husband and various critters. She still has honeybees.</p>

She loves God, loves her family, and loves freshly brewed coffee. She has a husband who cooks, a son who stop animates, a daughter who loves animals, a dog that follows her everywhere, and a turtle who scowls at her condescendingly.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Her mother raised her on Mary Higgins Clark, Diane Mott Davidson, and Remington Steele. Her grandmother shared True Crime stories with her as they plotted how to get away with the perfect murder. It's no surprise that Sarah became an award-winning spinner of suspenseful tales brimming with quirky characters. Mysteries are in her blood. Not that she could survive one of her own stories. She confesses, "I'd be snuffed out by chapter two."</p>

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Shell McMillan and her feline friends must unravel a mystery where everyone’s a suspect and no one’s to blame . . .</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">With the grand re-opening of her Urban Tails Pet Shop just days away, Shell McMillan has her hands full planning entertainment for the festive event, including a fortune-telling parrot. But her jubilant mood is soon threatened by ominous rumors of the return of Johnny Draco, a former investment guru who swindled money from most of the residents of Fox Hollow and then vanished without a trace. And when the parrot predicts a dire future for Draco and his dead body is found just hours later, no one can say they’re surprised—but no one will say who did it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">With virtually everyone in town a suspect, the police turn their focus on a good friend of Shell’s who was seen arguing with the victim shortly before his death. Determined to clear her friend’s name, Shell begins investigating Draco’s past, his former employer, and everyone who lost money to him. And when the trail of clues suggests there may have been a completely different motive for the murder, Shell suddenly realizes she’s uncovered a secret someone would kill to keep hidden—and that if she’s not careful, the parrot may be predicting she has no future at all . . .</p>

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;">A new town.
A haunting legend.
New beginnings or the beginning of the end?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After Cassie MacGuire’s husband dies in a plane crash along with her father, both her and her mother, Lily Bennett, are left as widows. Looking to make a new start, they move together to the quiet seaside town of Hideaway Bay. But their new home, Whispering Manor, has a reputation stretching back centuries. Legends of ghosts, paranormal disturbances and pirate treasure are all associated with the former sea captain’s mansion, starting with the death of its first mistress, Henrietta Blanchard.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When Cassie stumbles upon Henrietta’s journal and Lily uncovers a more recent tragedy in the home, they begin to wonder if the stories may be fact instead of fiction. When the strange occurrences turn dangerous, Lily and Cassie will have to investigate to save their home and possibly even their very lives!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Ghosts, Lore & a House by the Shore is the charming first installment in this small, seaside town mother-daughter cozy mystery series by Nellie H. Steele.</em></p>

<p><strong>Shopping for a Highlander</strong><br /><strong>Julia Kent</strong><br />(Shopping for a Billionaire, #18)<br />Publication date: January 11th 2022<br />Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance</p><blockquote><p><b>I’m a professional chickenblocker.</b></p>
<p><b></b><b>Except “chicken” is a euphemism.</b></p>
<p>I get paid to follow a womanizing troglodyte who thinks rules are for other people and that my pants are the next pair he’s getting into.</p>
<p>Dream on.</p>
<p>Bet your first professional job didn’t involve babysitting an extremely hot, muscle-bound Scottish Highlander with an ego the size of a kilt and a libido bigger than his…well…</p>
<p>Chicken.</p>
<p>Keeping Scottish football (that’s ‘soccer” to us Americans) player Hamish McCormick away from inappropriate scandals while he does product endorsement campaigns is my mission.</p>
<p>No problem.</p>
<p>Until Hamish decides I’m his next scandal.</p>
<p>And maybe more….</p>
<p><em>Shopping for a Highlander</em> is an enemies-to-lovers, slow burn romance that opens with a surprise kiss and ends with a happily ever after. This sports comedy in the <em>New York Times</em> bestselling Shopping for a Billionaire world contains no actual chickens, but it has plenty of locker room scenes, a fake relationship, very real banter, and more. You do not have to have read the previous books in this world, though after you read about Amy and Hamish, you’ll want to. </p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>EXCERPT:</strong></p>
<p>Hamish McCormick’s tongue is in my mouth. I realize this is a problem half the women on the planet would love to have. He’s a world-famous Scottish soccer–sorry, football to everyone except Americans–player, and my sister is married to his cousin, the billionaire. Given the fact that Hamish is kissing me in front of my date, though, it’s a little awkward. “Ahem,” said date says, scratching his temple, adjusting his glasses, and using polite, understated throat techniques to get Hamish off me. Subtlety doesn’t work on Hamish, though. This kiss is anything but subtle. Pretty sure you’d need a crowbar to pry him off me. Or me off him. The distinction between who is kissing whom was lost long ago. I see my date, Davis, out of the corner of my eye, and I’m about to shove this two-hundred-pound sack of hard muscle and overconfident heat off of me and slap him, but sweet merciful deity, I swear Hamish’s lips have some kind of magic potion on them that renders me spellbound. No kiss has ever tasted like this. Except the last kiss from him.</p>

<p>Author Bio:</p>
<p>New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Julia Kent writes romantic comedy with an edge. Since 2013, she has sold more than 1.5 million books, with 4 New York Times bestsellers and more than 16 appearances on the USA Today bestseller list. Her books have been translated into French and German, with more titles releasing soon. From billionaires to BBWs to new adult rock stars, Julia finds a sensual, goofy joy in every contemporary romance she writes. Unlike Shannon from Shopping for a Billionaire, she did not meet her husband after dropping her phone in a men's room toilet (and he isn't a billionaire). She lives in New England with her husband and three children in a household where the toilet seat is never, ever, down.</p>

<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;">It is a Spooktacular time for Jolie and Ava as they have their hands’ full catering Leavensport’s annual Halloween Pumpkin Bash. When Ava convinces Jolie to get their fortunes told by a visiting psychic, they receive an ominous prediction.</p><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;">“Masks–literal and figurative, chaos, deceit, betrayal, death. The cards have spoken.”</p><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;">Madame Esme Emerald’s fortunes are looking more like premonitions of doom. It seems that someone in Leavensport received a reading that did not sit well because Madame Emerald is found dead, and it looks like her crystal ball is the murder weapon—or is something more supernatural going on?</p><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;">Bounty-Full Investigative Services is on the case, or is it more of a paranormal manifestation? This could be a first for the girls as they take on the underworld’s spirits.</p><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;">Welcome to Leavensport, OH, where DEATH takes a DELICIOUS turn!</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>In a flash, she had magic. Can she use it to solve a mysterious death in her family?</strong></p><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;">Climbing a tree in a thunderstorm was always going to be a stupid idea, but when Evelyn Eldritch is struck by lightning, her magical powers are switched on. And she didn’t even know she was a witch!</p><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;">When Evelyn learns that her biological mother has died under suspicious circumstances, she makes a journey to the quaint village of Maiden-Upon-Avon, where the residents consist of werewolves, witches, vampires and one annoyingly handsome-yet-gruff policeman. But who should she suspect? Who can she trust?</p><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;">And if juggling her magical training, her mother’s café, and the town’s eccentric residents wasn’t enough, another body turning up at the local cricket match shows she’s definitely in well over her pointed hat…</p><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;">Murder at Magic Cakes Café is the first book in the adorable English Village Witch Cozy series, set in the beautiful English countryside. If you love plucky heroines, small-town whodunits, and a touch of retro nostalgia, then you’ll love Rosie Reed’s fun and flirty tale.</p><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;">Buy Murder at Magic Cakes Café today. It’s simply electrifying!</p><div style="text-align: center;">></div></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;">Note from the author: Writing this series kept me sane during the very strange year of 2020. I do hope you’ll enjoy escaping into the beautiful surroundings of Maiden-Upon-Avon and having some fun with Evelyn and all the other magical beings who live there! Each book is set in a different season of the magical year - beginning with spring in Book One. You can enjoy a gentle journey around the village, whilst Evelyn tries to solve the murder. So, treat yourself now by taking the phone off the hook of life, and soaking awhile in the bathtub of the English countryside!</p><div style="text-align: center;">If you sign up for my newsletter today, you can download bonus FREE novella Merrie May Mayhem straight away!

<strong>A Little About Me </strong>
I love writing, daydreaming, and creating stories. I often write for fun, even when I'm not planning on publishing. But it's also wonderful to share my stories with you!
I'm a massive Agatha Christie and Terry Pratchett fan, so writing paranormal mystery comes instinctively! I love the understated gentle charm of cozies, and it's always such a pleasure to spend time in the company of the wonderful sleuths and magical characters that my fellow authors create.
Writing the English Village Witch Cozy series helped to keep me sane during the very strange year of 2020. Evelyn and Alex have done a tremendous job of protecting my mental health, and it's my pleasure to share this comfort with you.
I do hope you’ll enjoy escaping into the beautiful surroundings of Maiden-Upon-Avon, and having some fun with Evelyn and all the other magical beings who live there! So treat yourself now by taking the phone off the hook of life, and soaking in the bathtub of the English countryside for a while! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">

<p><strong>Fairies and Frosting</strong><br /><strong>Christina Bauer</strong><br />(Fairy Tales of the Magicorum, #7)<br />Published by: Monster House Books<br />Publication date: July 20th 2021<br />Genres: Paranormal, Young Adult</p><blockquote><p>At last, Elle (never call her Cinderella) is reunited with Alec, the Prince of Le Charme Jewelers. Yay! But the pair soon discovers that Alec’s gemstone empire is about to go bankrupt. Boo. So our favorite couple devises a kick-ass scheme to save Le Charme. To announce their plan, Elle and Alec will hold a Glass Slipper Festival complete with music, dancing and cake. Lots of cake.</p>
<p>There’s only one problem. The Unseelie fae have returned.</p>
<p>Talk about bad news. No one combines lovely looks with dark intentions better than the Unseelie. Now, those nefarious fae want to destroy Elle, Alec and any hope for Le Charme. It doesn’t end there, either. The Unseelie are also targeting Elle’s stepsister, Agatha, as well as her old friend, Jacoby. And when will the Unseelie launch their deadly schemes? The Glass Slipper Festival.</p>
<p>Because fairies and frosting don’t mix.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Framed and Frosted, the third book in the Cupcake Catering Mystery series, finds cupcake caterer, Emory Martinez, working at a Laguna Beach society Fourth of July soiree, with her sister and their new employee, Sal. With a host that seems intent on accosting both catering employees and guests alike, things go from bad to worse when he accuses Sal of murdering his long-dead son.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">As the crescendo of exploding fireworks overhead becomes the backdrop for cupcakes and champagne, a deadly murder occurs. Can Sal and Emory explain why the cupcake the host ate, after shoving a trayful of buttercream frosted cupcakes onto Sal, resulted in his death? Or will the guests and detective alike believe that Sal is a murderer? Emory and her octogenarian employer, Tillie, whip into action to find out who framed Sal after being frosted by the victim.</p>

Furious? Filled with rage? Liable to detonate at a moment’s notice? That one seemed to convey the fire that burned up her blood and ignited something dangerous inside her as she searched for the male she had spotted.</p><p style="text-align: center;">That fire only blazed hotter as she finally located him on a rooftop overlooking the square, felt his gaze light on her as a shiver that cascaded over her entire body.</p><p style="text-align: center;">And then he was gone.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She clenched her jaw and cursed him as he sprinted across the rooftops, leaping alleys with ease.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Closing in on her mark.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Another bloody assassin!</p><p style="text-align: center;">Worse, he was an elf.</p><p style="text-align: center;">That could only mean one thing—her client had some explaining to do.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She was sure he was the reason the most renowned assassin’s guild in Hell just tossed their hat into the ring and was following her mark.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Mackenzie was swift to move, slipped through the crowd and worked her way back to the raised walkway where she had been when she had first spotted the other assassin. Where the sight of him had completely arrested her, bewitching her as if he was a mage rather than an elf. Her blood chilled at that word. Mage. She shook it off, together with the unsettling effect the elf had on her, and bit out another ripe curse as she checked his position.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The black-haired bastard was above the target now, looming at the edge of the roof, peering down at them and looking for all the world as if he was contemplating leaping on them.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Maybe he was.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Damn him. He was forcing her hand. She hadn’t come here to take down her mark, wasn’t appropriately armed for a kill.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She had come here to follow up a lead, part of her not expecting the vampire to be here tonight. Her plan had been to study him if he was and see what she could learn about him, to gather intelligence she could use to form a plan of attack. She regretted not bringing her arsenal with her now, but she hadn’t known she would have competition.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She was going to have to improvise.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Another, fouler, curse rolled off her tongue as five demons formed a blockade ahead of her. She sprinted right at them, unwilling to let them slow her down, fear a potent motivator as her gaze flicked to the elf again and then to her target as the idiot stopped right below him.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She nimbly leaped, slapped her left hand down on the shoulder of one of the big males and ran up the wall behind him. The demon grunted as she shoved off, growled as he twisted towards her, and she landed and ducked beneath the meaty fist he swung at her.</p><p style="text-align: center;">“Sorry!” she hollered over her shoulder without slowing.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She checked the elf again. Still there. What was he waiting for?</p><p style="text-align: center;">Her focus darted back to the mark.</p><p style="text-align: center;">He wasn’t alone.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The dark-haired male turned towards his companion—a stunningly beautiful woman with long white hair and curves to die for wrapped in cerulean leather.</p><p style="text-align: center;">A phantom made flesh.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The intel Jasynder had gathered for her was right then. The vampire was mated to a phantom. She could understand why the elf was hesitating now. Getting on the wrong side of a phantom was a sure-fire way of getting your soul devoured. It only took one kiss and the elf would be toast. Of course, the terrifying woman could kill Mackenzie just as easily with the same tactic, but phantoms were all female and preferred to turn males into ghosts to either use for procreation or to kill by draining their life essence.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Chances were high that if she and the elf both attacked at the same time, the phantom would target him, leaving Mackenzie open to take down the mark.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Which was going to be easier said than done. This vampire had a bloody reputation, led the fiercest legion of the Preux Chevaliers—an organisation of vampire mercenaries in Hell. Taking him down was going to be hard, and it was going to require some finesse if she didn’t want to die in the process, or before she could deal a fatal blow on him, but it would be worth it.</p><p style="text-align: center;">This contract was a huge deal for her guild.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Judging by the sour look on the elf’s face as he glared down at the couple and then at Mackenzie, it was a big deal for him too.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She glanced back at the mark.</p><p style="text-align: center;">“Shit!” she muttered as she saw they were gone.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She halted at the edge of the raised stone walkway and scanned the crowd with her senses, but there were too many people packed into the square. She couldn’t pick out vampire or phantom among the blur of scents and powers.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Mackenzie huffed and strode down the alley ahead of her, one that ran between the building where the elf still stood and the first building on the side of the square to her right. She exited it on a broader cobbled street and checked in both directions, and then did a quick lap of the demon district.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The thoroughfare was just as busy as the square, filled with demons grouped together in front of the one and two-storey grey stone buildings. Hordes of them had gathered around the tavern to the north of the district, a pale cream stone affair that was a contrast to all the dark grey. It was more elegant too, resembling something from the Victorian era.</p><p style="text-align: center;">“Hey,” she breathed as a big demon noticed her and his dusky horns curled a little, beginning to resemble those of a ram, and his crimson eyes brightened. She skimmed her hands down her burgundy corset to her hips, making sure she had the whole of his attention, and canted her head as she sidled up to him. “Don’t suppose you’ve seen a vampire and a phantom coming this way?”</p><p style="text-align: center;">He shook his head, and then growled and bared fangs when two other demons looked at her. She pegged one as from the Fifth Realm, and one as from the Second. Demons didn’t exactly like to share, but she needed information, and if a fight broke out, she would make a sharp exit.</p><p style="text-align: center;">“How about you, big guy?” She ran an assessing gaze over the demon from the Second Realm, taking a moment to appreciate all that muscle jammed into only a pair of tight black leathers, and how his black horns grew as he gave her a leisurely once-over in return. “You seen a vampire and a phantom?”</p><p style="text-align: center;">“Maybe,” he grunted and continued in stilted English, revealing he didn’t get out of Hell much, “What… information… worth?”</p><p style="text-align: center;">“More than you can afford, gorgeous.” She offered a sultry smile because that was all he was getting from her.</p><p style="text-align: center;">He hadn’t seen anything. None of them had. She debated questioning the others and then decided against it. She wasn’t going to find her mark again tonight. By now, he was either holed up in the vampire district to the north of the enormous cavern, or he had used one of the portal pathways and gone back to his stronghold in Hell.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Damn it.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She ogled the demon one last time, shutting out a stray thought that left her reeling—she liked her men a little leaner and a lot meaner.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The elf popped into her head.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She was about to banish him, but paused and frowned as she shrugged. Her mark was gone, but she could still come away from tonight with some valuable intel if she tailed the assassin. It might go some way towards making her feel better.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Mackenzie returned to the square and looked up to her right, at the rooftop. He was gone. She muttered another curse, one that felt like the millionth she had unleashed since noticing the elf.</p><p style="text-align: center;">That sizzle-spark rolled along her spine again and she jerked her head down.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Her gaze collided with pure amethyst across a sea of people, violet that held her fast as a thousand tingles tripped through her.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The elf frowned at her, his sensual lips turning downwards as a disapproving look settled on his handsome face. The black slashes of his eyebrows met hard and he pivoted, breaking the spell he had placed her under. She shook off the lingering effect and glared at his back as he eased through the crowd, heading towards the clock tower at the other end of the square.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Mackenzie gave him a few seconds to build a lead and then followed, keeping her senses trained on him so he couldn’t escape her.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Which of the elves was he? There was only one guild in Hell that employed his kind, and when she had been researching assassin organisations with the intent of forming one of her own, before she had joined a guild instead, two names had come up.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Fuery and Hartt.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Rumour didn’t need to paint an interesting picture of them. Fact had already done it. The two elves were practically famous and as far as she could tell, one was as bad as the other.</p><p style="text-align: center;">As dangerous and deadly as her mark.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><em>Their</em> mark.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Her client had obviously hired him too and she couldn’t really blame him for putting the contract out for tender at several guilds. Not when there was a ridiculously high chance the vampire would kill whoever was sent to take him down.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The elf hit the broad street that cut through the witches’ district. She locked up tight when he suddenly stopped and began to turn his head. She ducked behind a group of shifters, sure he was looking for her. Her heart shot into her throat and pounded there, adrenaline a sweet kick in her veins as she edged forwards and risked peering around the female shifter who was looking down at her as if she were insane.</p><p style="text-align: center;">He was gone. Damn him.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Mackenzie stood and tiptoed, peered over the heads of the crowd and tried to find him. The tightness in her chest evaporated as she spotted him heading along the side of the square and she hurried to catch up with him as he ducked into an alley.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Following an elf with a reputation as dark as the one attributed to the two assassins in his guild into an alley was probably suicide. That thought flickered through her mind, but she paid it no heed. She mounted the steps up onto the stone walkway and pressed her back to the building beside the alley.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Being prepared was worth the risk. She had never seen an assassin from his guild in the flesh, and she wanted to know what she was up against because she doubted her client was going to change his mind about having more than one assassin guild on this job for him.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The elf was her competition, and he was going down.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She needed to be the one to take out the mark. Claiming a trophy of this magnitude would establish her guild as one of the most prestigious in Hell. It would finally get her small band of assassins recognised and would lead to getting bigger and better contracts.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Her guild needed this.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Ever since she had taken over leadership of it a few decades ago, they had struggled to keep their heads above water, let alone establish themselves in the fiercely competitive world of contract killing. It was a miracle this client had approached them and offered this opportunity, and she wouldn’t mess up this chance they had been given.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She had to secure the kill for her guild.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She leaned left and peered into the alley, glared at the elf’s back as he strolled away from her.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Plus, she had a score to settle.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She had lost track of the number of clients who had dumped her guild halfway through a contract because an opening had come up at the one he worked for. Her scowl deepened, mostly because those electric shivers were back as she studied him, sending heat rolling through her.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Damn him.</p><p style="text-align: center;">But there was something arresting about him.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The fluid way he moved, a startling combination of grace and raw sexuality that shouldn’t be possible considering he wore a drab black knee-length tunic over his tight trousers, was drawing more than just her gaze to him. Every female in the alley looked him over after he had passed them and some had the courage to eye him up as he approached.</p><p style="text-align: center;">One even offered herself up to him.</p><p style="text-align: center;">He politely turned her down with a smile and a wave of his hand.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The subtle shift of his body caused the fine material of the tunic to pull taut over his biceps and across his broad shoulders, revealing toned muscles. Apparently, elves had incredible armour that was imbued with magic or something. The black scales resided in twin bracelets and could cover their owner in a handful of seconds if they issued a mental command. Those scales could transform into talons too, and only metal of the same type could cut through it.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She had never seen it in the flesh, but heat sizzled through her as she pictured what he would look like in only skin-tight black armour that revealed everything.</p><p style="text-align: center;">And she meant everything.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Several of the accounts she had read about elf armour, and some of the ones she had been told by women who had witnessed it, had been very clear about that. Every muscle on their body showed, and not just that, but you could tell the size of the package on offer too.</p><p style="text-align: center;">That sizzle became a spark that ignited her blood, had her thoughts going hazy for a moment before she snapped herself back to the world and shut it down.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She blamed the elf for her out-of-control libido and imagination, put it down to his good looks and incredible physique, and the fact it had been far too long since she had taken the time to scratch her itches.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She wouldn’t let herself get distracted by him.</p><p style="text-align: center;">It would be a death sentence.</p><p style="text-align: center;">He was the enemy and he had clocked her in the square, knew they were after the same mark. He was probably aware of her right now and was leading her to her doom. Well, it would be his doom that awaited him at the end of this dance.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Mackenzie tailed him, studying everything he did, learning all she could about him, right down to which foot he favoured as he pivoted and turned down another alley. The more she knew about him, the more likely it was she would survive a fight against him.</p><p style="text-align: center;">And they <em>would</em> come to blows.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She felt that in her gut.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She peeked into the alley. He was still a good fifty feet ahead of her. She slipped into the narrower space, hating the way the two dark stone buildings seemed to close in on her to steal all the light. The strange burn he had ignited in her blood turned to ice and she breathed through it as her chest constricted. She was fine. She focused on the electric lamp mounted on the wall at the end of the alley, using the soft light it emitted to banish the darkness.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The memories.</p><p style="text-align: center;">As the momentary panic passed and her senses came back online, she swore under her breath.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The elf was gone.</p><p style="text-align: center;">“Damn it, Mackenzie,” she muttered and frowned as she hurried forwards. “Losing track of your targets now?”</p><p style="text-align: center;">It wasn’t like her. She prided herself on her skills, on her dedication to her work and how professional she was compared with a lot of other assassins. She had never lost track of a mark and now she had done it twice in one night.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She slowed her pace, catching herself. Rushing headlong after the elf was a foolish move. Whether the male was Hartt or Fuery, he was a merciless killer. Darkness made flesh.</p><p style="text-align: center;">And sharp as a blade too.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The tales of them were legendary. More than one account glorified how quickly they could think on their feet and how intelligent they were. She supposed skills like that came with the territory when you were thousands of years old.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She took a moment to breathe, to focus her mind again. She was quick and clever too.</p><p style="text-align: center;">He wasn’t going to get the jump on her.</p><p style="text-align: center;">She brought her guard up again as she slipped a dagger free of the sheathe at her waist and stretched her senses around her as she exited the alley onto the main street that cut through the heart of the demon district. She palmed the grip of the blade, her pulse picking up as she scoured the area.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Nothing.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Had he teleported back to Hell?</p><p style="text-align: center;">She squeaked as a hand suddenly appeared around her throat and hauled her back against a rock-hard body, and shivered as his deep baritone teased her ear.</p><p style="text-align: center;">“Looking for me?”</p><p style="text-align: center;"> </p><p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img alt="Purchase Links" height="75"
