Cutthroat Cupcakes
2020
Killer cupcakes Seems improbable to Lina, but when an attractive detective snaps cuffs on her and accuses her of witchy crimes she’s forced to reconsider. The murder weapon? A cupcake topper sold in Lina’s shop, Sticky, Tricky Treats. The method? A killing curse. The curse’s origin? Lina...sort of. Except Lina hadn’t a clue that she was a witch, and certainly didn’t know she’d accidentally cursed some of her confections. She's got to catch the killer who's used her magic to murder or face a conviction as an accessory. Now, if only the wizard detective assigned to the case weren't such a distraction. Cutthroat Cupcakes is a magical witch culinary cozy with a touch of romance, the first of three books in the Cursed Candy Mysteries series! #1: Cutthroat Cupcakes #2: Twisted Treats #3: Fatal Fudge And now with a second, new trilogy in the Cursed Candy world releasing! #1 Candy Cane Conspiracy #2 Sugar Plum Ploy #3 Mistletoe Machinations

Twisted Treats
2020
It’s murder when family come to visit. Great Aunt Sophia’s in town to teach Lina all of her witchy ways. No great surprise, her eccentric great aunt’s teaching methods are just as unorthodox as the lady herself. Certainly not approved by the International Criminal Witch Police. Which is a problem, since Lina’s neck deep in another murder investigation. Lina has to juggle her great aunt’s idea of witch training as she helps the ICWP solve a rather unusual murder…one that’s been linked to Lina’s magic. Can she balance her witch training while trying to catch a killer? Oh, and also keep her great aunt out of the clink.
#3
Fatal Fudge
2020
Magical mind control. Lina accidentally gave a batch of her fudge an extra wallop. Anyone who eats it becomes suggestible. Very suggestible. Is it mind control? First a nun robs a liquor store, then a kindergarten teacher punches a pedestrian. The International Criminal Witch Police are certain Lina’s fudge is to blame. When a third crime demonstrates an escalating pattern of violence, Lina is terrified a fourth offense will end with murder. Does the mastermind behind the crimes have a twisted sense of humor, or is there a more sinister connection behind the crimes? Join Lina as she cleans up the last (she hopes!) of her cursed candy messes and tracks down a potential killer.
