Mystery With A Shot Of Bourbon! 

Death by Theft

A Josiah Reynolds Mystery 19

by Abigail Keam

Genre: Cozy Mystery 

FIVE STARS! "Abigail Keam continues to charm with an assortment of characters that are charismatic and endearing. Josiah is a great character and her unique ability to stumble upon bodies is a great way to draw her into the mystery." -Readers' Favorite

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?

Abigail Keam is an award-winning and Amazon best-selling author who writes the Josiah Reynolds Mystery Series about a Southern beekeeper turned amateur female sleuth. 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.

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.

She currently lives on the Kentucky River in a metal house with her husband and various critters. She still has honeybees.

*Book Tour & Giveaway* Vanished

 


She'll risk everything to expose the truth.

Vanished

Circle of the Red Lily Book 2

by Anna J. Stewart

Genre: Romantic Suspense


She'll risk everything to expose the truth.

Since her twin sister Sylvie's disappearance seven years ago, single mother Mabel Reynolds has turned grief into action and become a strong voice for victims of violence and abuse.

When new revelations shed light on what may have happened not only to Sylvie, but dozens of other women, Mabel's hope for answers is reignited. But the new oh-so-charming DA overseeing the investigation seems more interested in a quick rather than an accurate resolution.

With little faith in the system, Mabel isn’t about to stay quiet, not when she’s finally close to the truth. She’s willing to go up against anyone—even a smug, irritating, attractive DA to get the answers she and other families deserve.

Open and shut.

That's what Assistant DA Paul Flynn has been told about his new assignment supervising a house of horrors case. With a high-profile conviction at stake, Paul can’t afford to make a wrong move if his professional goals are to be achieved.

But Mabel Reynolds has his attention. All of it. Attraction aside, the woman knows far more than what’s in the official files which makes her something even more intriguing. But using Mabel as an asset means exposing her and her young daughter to even more danger. Danger that is closing in on them from every side. As even darker forces appear, and their lives are threatened, Paul is faced with risking not only his entire career, but also the one thing he never anticipated losing: his heart.

Exposed

Circle of the Red Lily Book 1

2023 Finalist for the Daphne du Maurier Award

Working as a Hollywood photographer means Riley Temple has seen it all. But then she finds herself staring at the chilling image of a dead woman. When her questions about the film lead to violence, she reluctantly turns to the only person who can help. Detective Quinn Burton, the police commissioner’s son. Her history with the LAPD is complicated, her trust in authority, tenuous. But to find those responsible and protect those closest to her, she’s willing to do anything. Even trust a cop.

After more than a decade on the job, Quinn knows a dangerous situation when he sees it and Riley Temple is up to her ears in trouble. But not for the reason she thinks. The pictures she’s stumbled on call into a question a notorious murder conviction—one that powerful people have a vested interest in keeping in place. Seeing this case through means betraying someone: his job, his family, or the woman he’s falling in love with.

As old secrets are revealed, Quinn and Riley find themselves targeted by members of a secret society that has long maintained violent control over Hollywood’s powerful elite. A society that, until now, has remained hidden in the shadows. A society that will stop at nothing to keep their secrets buried.

Naya
I saved a man’s life.
How was I supposed to know he was the leader of the Lacroix family, the man who owned half the city? More importantly, how was I supposed to know my brother was the one responsible for the death of his wife?
But when he threatens retribution, what choice do I have except to take my brother’s place? Only, his solution is for me to marry his son, a man who makes my senses fuzzy and my skin hot.
A man who is willing to forfeits his entire fortune to turn me down. A man who whispers just how much he hates me every night while dismantling my entire world with just a touch.

Thoran

Father is out of his mind if he thinks I would ever marry the sister of the man responsible for killing my mother. I don’t care if her eyes burn my soul, or that the way she says my name makes me hard. I would rather make her beg than put a ring on her finger.
But a Lacroix contract is ironclad. She has no choice. One way or another, she is about to become a part of the family.
Over my dead body.
Naya Blackwell has no idea just how far I’m willing to go to make sure she regrets ever saying yes. Even if I have to destroy her — body and soul — little by little for the rest of our lives.

*New Release* A Mafia Mistress For Christmas

 


Title: A Mafia Mistress for Christmas

Author: Brooke Harper

Genre: Dark Mafia Romance

Cover Designer: Everly Yours Cover Designs

Publication Date: Nov. 30th, 2023

Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR


Blurb: 

The greatest gifts aren't always wrapped in paper...

Call me a grinch but Christmas sucks. Always has. So when there’s an opportunity at work to infiltrate the Zicari Syndicate during their Christmas Eve bash, I jump at the chance.

The plan is simple: assume the identity of a seductive mafia mistress with dangerous tastes, and infiltrate the underground crime kingdom. I am prepared for the risks, but the unwanted attention is something entirely new. Specifically from Marco, the wickedly handsome younger brother and right-hand man of the monstrous Stefan Zicari.

Marco isn’t my intended target, but he has a hidden agenda of his own. Instead of killing me, he proposes we form an unlikely alliance. We’ll play pretend, with me standing in as Marco’s newest fling so that we can collect the evidence needed to bring down his brother’s criminal empire for good. And if we’re lucky, Stefan will be in handcuffs before jolly old Saint Nick comes down the chimney.

But things are quickly shifting between us. It’s not long before our acting crosses the line into something real, tempting, and dangerous. Being together can jeopardize everything we’ve worked for and get us killed.

Our charade was only supposed to be for the Christmas holiday, but now I’m wishing I could be Marco’s Mafia mistress all year long.

A Mafia Mistress for Christmas 
is a holiday mafia romance novella. This story is a quick read that contains some darker themes and lots of heat.




Brooke Harper creates dark and sexy worlds for her characters to play. A lover of strong coffee and old tombstones, she spins dark tales of sex and sin, pain and passion, and misery and madness that’ll have you flipping the pages and begging for more.
