No one is more surprised than sane, sensible Sophronia Neal when she inherits a Victorian manor from an elderly man she befriended at the bookstore she manages-except perhaps his two grandchildren who are outraged at the turn of events. From that day, her existence becomes fraught with danger and intrigue. Not only does the house hold secrets Sophronia doesn't understand, strange occurrences in her life make her question her sanity. When she is attacked while walking her dog, she can't decide if her life is in danger from a very real person intent on harming her or if there's something more sinister at work-perhaps a restless spirit?

Just imagine...Imagine if the twelve days of Christmas weren't about Christmas at all. What if the Partridge in a pear tree was actually a chef named Otto Partridge who found a pear orchard to pick some fresh pears for his restaurant? Imagine the two turtle doves as a pop duo? What if the eleven pipers piping were bakers on a baking challenge show? And what if the six geese a-laying were sassy birds full of advice for a young girl looking to earn money for a prom dress? A mixture of stories sure to appeal to a variety of readers. Some are set in historical times, some are modern, some fantasy and some romantic. All of them fun and mostly light-hearted. Something for everyone. And none of them Christmas...except for the last one, which involves the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade... the traditional kick off for Christmas festivities

Her dreams of a trip across Europe on a luxury train hadn't included murder... In 1937, with the clouds of war looming on the horizon, librarian Fiona Vancleave dreams of luxury train trips involving exotic places and romantic interludes. But when she wins a trip on the Orient Express, she quickly discovers that things aren't quite as she envisioned them. While romance might be a possibility with fellow passenger, the enigmatic Winchester Barrington, IV, Fiona doesn't know if she can trust him, especially when she finds herself suspected of murder. Alone in a foreign country, facing possible jail time or even execution is certainly not what she had in mind when she booked her trip. He's a spy, searching for an assassin, but he hadn't expected to find romance... Winchester Barrington, IV, scion of a wealthy Connecticut family, boards the Orient Express, ostensibly for a pleasure trip from Paris to Istanbul. In reality, he's a spy for the United States War Department on the trail of a master assassin. His mission: to find and capture this elusive executioner. Among a growing list of suspects, including an Oxford Don, an American entrepreneur, a Chicago gangster, and two mysterious Turkish men, Win finds himself attracted to Fiona, a shy librarian who may actually be his quarry.

It's 1938. Europe is on the brink of war as the madman Adolph Hitler is amassing an army to conquer the continent. The Führer is also in negotiations with Ambrose Schumacher, leader of a vampire coven, to recruit super-soldier vampires to fight for Germany. If he's successful, Europe is lost. Declan Cavanagh, a member of a secret society of vampire hunters, is on a mission to stop this evil alliance. In his pursuit, Declan will be faced with many choices-some hard and some easy-and one even heartbreaking, but he knows he must persevere in order to try to bring some normalcy to a world caught up in chaos. And if, along the way, he gets distracted by a number of attractive women, well, it's just part of the job...or is it?

Rex Davis has a very big problem. On the day they broke up, his former girlfriend hexed him to never find true love. Desperate times, and all that jazz about measures to be taken, speed Rex on his way to finding a way to end the jinx that's taken hold of his life. Along for the ride whether she want to go or not is his best friend, Agatha Marsden and her pet dog, Tex. Aggie, as Rex calls her, has her own battles to fight as she is convinced she can win a Pulitzer Prize for journalism. The case she's reporting on now is a national attention grabber. Now if Rex would only leave her alone long enough to work it.

No one liked Drusilla Isaacs. She spent a lifetime alienating people, as if making the most enemies was a personal goal. Now she's dead. Shot, stabbed, and her neck broken…and that's what the coroner can tell from a first look. It's up to Maggie Blaine-former friend and one-time victim of the odious Drusilla-and Maggie's partner, Jacob Brown, to figure out who, out of a seemingly endless list of suspects, would carry out such heinous acts. Their choices are varied. From Drusilla's husbands-the former and the current-to the women in her life-her secretary, the mother of her husband's son, or the new wife of her ex-husband. There's also another option. A serial killer who randomly appears to insert himself into the mix. A tale of murder, gems, drugs, illicit sex, and a cast of villains who all have one thing in common-their hatred of Drusilla Isaacs.
