5 YEARS OF COZY CHAOS, COMMUNITY, & COFFEE CHATS

And you’re invited to the party—for free!

Hey there, cozy mystery reader who hasn’t peeked behind the Patreon curtain just yet…

I’m popping into your inbox with a little heart-squeeze of a reminder that something really special has been brewing behind the scenes—and it’s time to finally invite you to grab a front row seat. ☕

Five years ago, I launched my Patreon with nothing more than a few sneak peeks, a cross-stitch pattern or two, and some early access goodies. Those first newsletters? The ones you see in the screenshot? That was the whole kit and caboodle. And now? Y’all. We’ve created something so much bigger and more meaningful than I ever dreamed.

We’ve become a community with a few thousand of our friends. A real, close-knit, laugh-out-loud, sometimes-tear-up kind of group that doesn’t just read the books—we live them together.

So to celebrate FIVE incredible years of this cozy mystery haven, I’m throwing open the doors. For the month of July, anyone who signs up—yes, even for free—gets the full VIP treatment.

That means you’ll get:
✨ Full access to ALL Patreon posts for July
Audiobooks & eBooks
Monthly planners and cozy downloads
Coloring pages, craft patterns, diamond bead art & more
Exclusive short stories & deleted scenes
Early peeks into what I’m writing right now
Fun surprises, giveaways, and party invites
A chance to join the beloved annual Christmas Sock Exchange
A front-row pass to the 25 Days of Cozy Christmas Advent Calendar (yes, it’s coming again!)
Zooms, Galentine’s parties, Friendsgiving, behind-the-scenes Hallmark TV talk—and yep, our infamous Halloween costume Zoom party, too!

All the cozy vibes. All the community. All the feels.

So if you’ve ever thought:

“I wish I had someone to talk books with.”
“I want more behind-the-scenes access to Tonya’s writing world.”
“I love when authors actually connect with their readers…”

This is your invitation.
No pressure. Just come take a look around. July is the perfect time to try it all out—for free. And hey, even if you don’t stay long, I promise you’ll leave with a warm heart, a good laugh, and maybe even a new cozy mystery to cuddle up with.

But if you do stick around?
Well then… welcome home.

Come sit with us.
Join the Patreon here — your front-row seat is waiting.

xoxo,
Tonya

Ranch And Red Herrings is here!

Ranch and Red Herrings is here and ready to wrangle on Kindle Unlimited!

Murder’s just another scandal waiting on the porch…

Cussy Hollingsworth never planned to come back to Bluegrass Ridge, Kentucky—not for the ranch, not for the gossip, and definitely not for a murder. But when her uncle dies under suspicious circumstances, she ends up with a ranch she didn’t ask for and a mystery she can’t ignore.


So go on, grab your sweet tea and settle in. This one’s got secrets, sass, and a stubborn sleuth who isn’t afraid to dig through the dirt.

:
✓ small-town scandal with big Southern charm
✓ a reluctant ranch heiress turned amateur sleuth
✓ fried pies, front porch gossip & fierce friendships
✓ a broody cowboy with too many opinions
✓ suspicious neighbors and long-held grudges
✓ inheritance drama & murder wrapped in mystery
✓ cozy crime meets cowgirl grit
✓ secrets buried deeper than fence posts
✓ a killer who’s not done yet…
