Her new B&B could save her …if it doesn’t kill her first.

Killer Cottage

A Tiny House Mystery

Empty-nester Phoenix has the perfect plan to build a new life: Use her savings to turn a run-down property into a cozy B&B.

But when you buy a fixer-upper, there are some things you can’t fix. A dead body is one of them.

Now her not-quite-perfect retreat has three big problems: An intruder, an arsonist, and a killer. And she hasn’t even opened for business yet.

She’d rather not live up to her name. Can she find the culprits before her dreams go up in smoke?

This is no garden-variety murder.

Weed Whacked

A Tiny House Mystery

Phoenix is focused on getting her B&B off the ground while ignoring the upcoming holiday season—the first she’ll spend alone as her daughter globe-trots across Europe.

Solving a murder isn’t on her to-do list. But her plans change when she finds a dead body near an abandoned landscaping truck, apparently a Halloween prank gone terribly wrong. When her friend George lands at the top of the suspects list, Phoenix struggles to prove his innocence and save his business … and learns there’s more than one way to define family.

Can she root out the real killer before George loses everything … and she loses George?

It’s a rocky road to justice.

Muddy Mango Murder

A Tiny House Mystery

Phoenix already has her hands full as she juggles her quirky B&B guests and her lovable but eccentric parents. So when her town’s beloved ice cream truck driver dies under unusual circumstances, she has no intention of getting involved—especially since her taste for trouble has already earned her an unsavory reputation among her neighbors.

But her resolve melts when she uncovers the victim’s true identity. Now Phoenix needs to ensure the cold-hearted killer gets their just deserts . . . before another chilling death hits home.

Snow isn’t the only thing sending a chill through Applewood.

Fatal Frost

A Tiny House Mystery

Phoenix has high hopes for a picture-perfect holiday season as she decks the halls and plans a surprise party for her best friend. She’s even organized a snow sculpting showdown to raise her town’s profile and attract merrymakers to her B&B.

Everything’s on track for a festive December … until a local school principal meets an icy end.

Now the town’s biggest attraction has become its greatest liability, and Phoenix’s holiday hustle turns into a blizzard of trouble. Knee-deep in clues, she needs to thaw out her sleuthing skills before the killer melts away—and she needs to remember that Christmas magic lies in warm friendships, not perfect plans.
