It’s that time of the year, time to say goodbye to the year gone by. If you are like me, you probably can’t wait for these last two days to be done already so that you can party on New Year’s Eve. But a part of me also wants to hold on to these last vestiges of 2018.
One big task I got off my plate – the entire Pelican Cove Series is now available in paperback!
I’m making plenty of new goals for 2019 and am eager to get back to writing after the holiday season. There are a couple of new series in the offing with more feisty women like Jenny and Meera. Needless to say, I’m excited!
The last giveaway I ran had great response and I thank you all for it. I am giving away another Kindle copy of Strawberries and Strangers. All you have to do this time is answer a simple question for me. Please leave a comment below with your answer.
Giveaway Question
Where would you like my next cozy mystery series to be set? Your options are as follows –
A – another beach town
B – in the Midwest
C – Any other place (please mention the general location)
That should be easy enough?
I will keep the giveaway running for a couple of days after New Year’s Eve.
Book 8 in the Pelican Cove Cozy Mystery series is coming soon.
Before I go, I bring you the last cozy mystery sale of this year, an eclectic collection of cozy mysteries put together by fellow authors. You can click on the link below to go the sales page. Another fellow author, Chelsea Thomas, has just released a new cozy series. It sounds like a great read and I have already added it to my reading pile. I hope you check it out.
Cozy Mystery Sale
Thank you for giving my books a chance in 2018. I really appreciate it. I will be back in 2019 with plenty more juicy cozies for your reading pleasure.
Apple Die
When Chelsea Thomas was left at the altar, she moved home to live on the family orchard with her quirky aunt, Miss May. All Chelsea wanted was hot cocoa and apple pie. Then she found a dead body. Face down in her favorite stream. Now she’s in the middle of a murder investigation, and a killer is on the loose in her quaint small town.
Miss May is a former New York City lawyer, so she thinks she and Chelsea can catch the criminal on their own. Local business owner Teeny is nosy, opinionated, and convinced the murder was inspired by her favorite British mystery series. And Chelsea is caught up in the amateur investigation, a timid Watson on her first case.
Will the stress of the amateur sleuthing be enough to break Chelsea for good? Or will it be exactly what she needs to get over her ex, and learn to be happy?
Most importantly, will this rag-tag crew find the killer before he strikes again?
a Midwest town with a history, such as a haunted town or a town with a colorful past.
A. Another beach town
A – another beach town
Giveaway entry suggestion for next cozy mystery series location:
perhaps a theme park devoted to chocolate?!!
Brenda suggests a theme park all about chocolate – That could be HersheyPark in Hersey, PA! 😊
another beach town….always a fun read
in the midwest
Other, like a B &B along the BlueRidge Parkway or anywhere along the Appalachian Trail.
I think the next place should be Niagara Falls area. It’s so beautiful there😍
I think the next place should be The Gulf Coast area. It’s so beautiful there😍
How about a series in the Midwest, Leena? Lots of possibilities!
C. I think the Texas coast would be a fun setting…South Padre Island!
The Mid-west would be my choice.
I think the mid west would be a good place. In another small town.

In the Midwest ❤️
A beach town sounds great, although I live in the Midwest – Toledo.
Something different. Maybe set in the mountains of Tenn
Please set the next one in the Northwest, and NOT Seattle.
C. Any other place, what about Georgia.
C. I live in the South, so I love to read books that also take place in the South!
