Every part of my body hurts this morning. My hands are so tight I can barely type. I knew I was going to be in pain today, that is why I didn’t stop chiseling the pebble shower floor up until it was completely done. That was by far the worst DIY home improvement chore I have ever done in my entire life. BUT… it is done and now I can move on. On to the couch where I will spent my day binge watching movies on Netflix. I was thinking of re-watching all the Marvel movies. Both of my baby bassets and my hubby said they wish I would spend one day doing nothing, and today they will get that wish. I am not even going to change out of my nighttime pajamas into my daytime PJ’s.

She’s armed. He’s dangerous.
Together, can they stop a killer from tearing a small island community apart?
When wise-cracking cozy mystery author, Austin Martell, left his hometown on Whidbey Island for the bright lights of New York, he vowed he would never go back. But some promises are impossible to keep, and when Austin discovers that his mother has suffered a serious accident, he has no choice but to return.

Sparks fly as the two pair up to figure out who is responsible for the murder. The closer they come to discovering truth, the more desperate someone is to keep the sins of the past from coming to light.
Someone close to Austin harbors a deadly truth. Can Ellie unmask a killer before Austin becomes one more secret buried beneath the waves of Deception Bay?

by Valerie Comer
Genre: Religion & Spirituality
FREE for a limited time
An opinionated local-food advocate falls in love with the junk-food-loving reluctant farmer next door.
Love her or hate her, Jo Shaw doesn’t much care. She’s a woman on a mission, joining her best friends in buying a dilapidated farm to prove that growing most of their own food and living sustainably is possible. Too bad she’s a city girl with little knowledge and less tact. She’ll learn – both people and gardening skills – or she’ll know the reason why!
Zachary Nemesek is back in northern Idaho only until his dad recovers enough to work his own land again. When Zach discovers three helpless (right?) females have taken up residence at the old farm next door, he expects trouble… but nothing prepares him for Josephine Shaw. Is her war on junk food most shocking, or is it her war on mice? Or maybe, just maybe, it’s that his disdain for her dogged ways turns into reluctant admiration.
But romance? How can the country veterinarian fall in love with a woman who’s more tart than sweet?
