Book Description

A mishap on a wedding day spoils the union – it’s every bride’s nightmare in this cozy mystery. Nikki and Hawk don’t want an elaborate ceremony; they want something small and intimate, surrounded by their nearest and dearest. Nikki is running around trying to shoulder most of the more delicate designs to make sure that everything goes perfectly. A message sent in blood is a warning not to take lightly. Hawk and his right-hand man, Seth, are recruited when hunters recover the corpse of a police officer murdered in cold blood – with a chilling message of revenge to the Chief. The Chief refuses to stand down against Hawk’s speculation that this murderer has killed more than once. It’ll take more than that to scare him off-duty. As the investigation stretches, a dark cloud crosses over Maple Hills – and the impending nuptials. Hairline doubts crack through the surface as Nikki tries to find common ground between a stubborn father and groom-to-be and trying to catch the killer. It takes a spotless crime scene, a car crash, long contained stress, and a nose-dive through some closed cases to save the day – for better or worse. This cozy mystery is a clean read: no graphic violence, sex, or strong language. It can be read in one to two hours. It is perfect for those moments when you are waiting at an appointment or want to enjoy a quick read.

An amateur sleuth, a handsome detective, and a murder to solve. Cozy up for the night with this mystery. Romance is in the air….and so is danger. All seems well in the sleepy little town of Maple Hills, Vermont, especially for Nikki and her son, Seth. But then, a mysterious and dark stranger arrives in Nikki’s cherished chocolate shop.

Andrew, Nikki’s ex-husband and Seth’s father, suddenly creeps into town, carrying a load full of trouble and a lot of bad memories (and vibes) for Nikki. Things just couldn’t possibly get worse for her, right? Dead wrong. All in a short time period, Nikki’s shop is vandalized, Andrew turns up missing, then kidnapped, and the mystery woman ends up dead. Fortunately for Nikki, her brave beau, Hawk Daily, Maple Hills’ finest and all of her family and friends come to her aid, in one way or another.

Book Description

Before mystery shopper Josie Marcus can say “I do” she must solve a matrimonial murder to keep her in-law from becoming an inmate... As a bride-to-be, Josie’s latest assignment is a gift—mystery shopping flower and cake vendors for a popular St. Louis wedding website. She even meets another bride, Molly Deaver, at the local florist. Turns out, Josie and Molly have a lot in common, including the groom! Molly has been stalking Dr. Ted for months, but after his high-maintenance mother, Lenore, confronts the faux fiancée, everyone believes Molly is history. Instead, she’s murdered and Ted’s pistol-packing mama is cuffed for the crime. While it’s tempting to leave her future mother-in-law behind bars, Josie knows she and Ted can’t get married until Lenore is freed. It’s up to Josie and her amateur sleuthing skills to unwrap this case, clear Lenore’s name, and unveil the real killer...or her wedding bells could soon become death knells.

Book Description

A very British cosy mystery A hunted witch hiding in an Agatha Christie-esque novel, a series of eccentric characters, a host of clues and red-herrings, and… MURDER! A talented spell-weaving witch on the run is forced to find magical refuge in a mystery novel, playing the role of Emily Crookshanks, amateur sleuth and professional flirt. Waking up with no idea who or where she is, Emily finds herself in the quaint 1920s English countryside village of Little Pucklewick, uncomfortably sharing tea and cakes with the not so Reverend Wilson-Smallsey, the village’s rather pompous womanising vicar. After a series of shocking murders, Emily hooks up with the village doctor, a rather dashing ex-RAF fighter pilot known to his chums as ‘Ceddars’. Working together, they uncover clues and interrogate suspects. Add an inept inspector, various pompous ladies from the regular vicarage get-togethers, a dashing explorer recently returned from the Orient, his very attractive career-minded secretary, and a whole host of motives and clues, including a series of nasty accusatory posters, and Emily finds herself in the middle of a most confusing and frustrating mystery. But more than the murders, Emily suffers from terrifying visions of attack and desperate escape. And just what are wands and spell-weavery, and the smartphones and hi-def televisions she occasionally glimpses in her mind? Despite everything, Emily knows that to survive, she must solve the mystery and, to do that, she must keep going to The End.

Book Description

The writings of Frances Trollope have been subject to increasing academic interest in recent years, and are now widely studied. This four-volume set includes scholarly editions of her four novels, in which her comical, yet subversive, treatment of Victorian marriage is an interesting contrast to some of the more earnest but conventional fiction of the time. At the time of their reception all four novels were considered to be the most hilarious and beloved of Trollope’s works. In their satire of Victorian marriage, they challenged and complicated the normative practices of getting married, being married, and getting married again. Trollope’s creation of strong, independent, older women is an antidote to other Victorian novelists’ portrayal of widows and spinsters, and her novels challenge our understanding of the characteristics of the novels of the 1830s and 1840s, especially in their depiction of Victorian gender dynamics as well as their influence on succeeding novels.
