Mystery of the Missing Maestro: A Junie Carmichael Coastal Mystery (affiliate link)
When the church bell stays silent and Sybil Keyes, the choir director vanishes, Thistleberry Point’s Sunday service turns into a small-town scandal.
Junie Carmichael—crime writer turned reluctant bookshop owner—is just trying to keep her nose in her novels. But when her parrot Edgar squawks “Where is she?” in the middle of the sanctuary, she knows her quiet coastal life is about to get loud.
With her sassy sidekick Flo (armed with sarcasm and lemon bars), Junie stumbles onto a trail of suspicious finances, misplaced sheet music, a tangle of ledgers, lies, and one very out-of-tune cover-up.
There’s Minnie, choir member with a bruised ego, Frank, the jumpy janitor who knows more than he says, and Gerald, the funeral director, who swears he was in love with Sybil.
Everyone has secrets—and someone wants Junie to stop asking questions.
The town’s harmony is cracking—and if Junie doesn’t hit the right note soon, the final verse might end in silence.
The Magic Collector (Magic of Havenwood Book 1) (affiliate link)
Bella was 16 when she discovered that she’d been lost in a book. Literally. For the world she’d been living in was created by a Writer’s magic…and when she finally escaped, she discovered the real world. A world where Writers, Painters, Sculptors, Musicians, and Actors have incredible powers!
Escaping the world created by a long-dead writer’s book, Bella finds herself in the real world. A world of living statues, painted creatures taken out of the canvas to live amongst humans, and so much more.
Bella soon discovers that she has the gift of creating magical paintings, able to reach into the canvas and literally pull what she paints out of them. And to put anything she wants into her canvases, storing them in stasis until she draws them out again.
Unfortunately, this gift makes her a target for a villain known only as the Collector, a wealthy lord determined to collect every last Painter and Writer in the world, and throw them into paintings to trap them there forever.
Now Bella must master her art to fight back against the Collector, before he destroys the magic of art itself!

Cash: How do you know if you’re at the end of the beginning or the beginning of the end?

We became brothers by choice. When tragedy struck, I was forced to make a decision that changed all our lives. I thought, after ten years, it was safe to come back home. I was wrong…
