Who is ready for a coffee from the Bean Hive?
Hey Friend!
Grab your latte, fluff your reading blanket, and settle into your favorite spot—because A Perk of Trouble is officially OUT NOW! ☕️
We’re heading back to Honey Springs, Kentucky—where the Bean Hive Coffeehouse is brewing more than just coffee. This time, Roxy’s caught in a twisty murder mystery at the Honey Springs Writers Retreat… and the victim? A famous author found dead inside the Crooked Cat Bookstore—posed exactly like a scene from his own novel.
And that’s just the beginning.
Here’s what’s packed into this cozy mystery adventure:
✔️ A bestselling author with more enemies than friends
✔️ A body discovered in the most ironic place—a book signing
✔️ A missing chapter, a suspicious contract, and secrets on every page
✔️ Bunny and Birdie buzzing with small-town gossip
✔️ A flirty moment (or three) between Roxy and Patrick
✔️ And one determined coffee-slinging lawyer who won’t stop until the real story is uncovered
This is Book #17 in the Killer Coffee Mystery series, but like always, each book is a standalone mystery—so whether you’ve been with Roxy from the start or you’re just grabbing your first cup, you’ll feel right at home in Honey Springs.
And in case you missed it:
Available now in Kindle Unlimited
Includes cozy extras + bonus recipes
I need to know who you suspected and if you figured it out before Roxy!

RELEASE DAY IS HERE!
Y’all… it’s officially the day we’ve been waiting for! My latest cozy mystery is out in the wild, and I couldn’t be more thrilled (or nervous… or buzzing from all the coffee I’ve had this morning).
FATHER’S DAY FUGITIVE is HERE!
The barbecue’s hot, the secrets are sizzling, and the suspects are serving up more twists than a bowl of Mama’s peach cobbler.
This book has everything:
✔️ A seaside murder
✔️ A not-so-grieving fiancée
✔️ A small-town BBQ cook-off
✔️ The Mayor is still a dog in a bowtie
✔️ And Violet? She’s knee-deep in trouble again.
THANK YOU for being here and supporting this series. Every single one of you makes this possible, and I’m so grateful to have you along for the ride. Whether you’ve been here from the beginning or you’re just jumping in, you’re part of the cozy crew now!PLEASE SHARE!

Now… who’s ready to stir up some clues with Violet?
