When murder is on the menu, it’s no time to be kitten around...
Ember McNair owns a pub that serves the tastiest treats in Louisiana. But when someone starts targeting her customers with death, all signs point to her. Luckily, Ember has a few aces up her sleeve. See, she’s not just a small business owner. She’s a witch.
Too bad you don’t need magic to see the whole town start to talk, suggesting she killed her problem customers.
It’s not like the victims were pillars or society or anything. One was a boyfriend-stealing bully. The others were just as bad.
Who had the motive? Seems everyone had reasons to hate them. And plenty of people in this sleepy little town had things to hide.
It’s up to Ember, her bat shifter bestie, the ghost of her ancestor, and Kali, her cat familiar who quotes Sun Tzu’s Art of War to piece it all together.
They better hurry. Because right now, all roads lead to Ember as the murderer. And sure, Sheriff Jamison might be giving her the benefit of the doubt, but he’s only going to tolerate her butting around in his investigation for so long.
Can his hazel eyes get lost in hers long enough so she can uncover the clues?

Another murder in town is just clawful!
It’s a purr-fectly good day for a murder. Or at least someone seems to think so in the tiny town of Couchemar, Louisiana. That’s the story that Ember McNair hears one morning from her bat shifter BFF.
Apparently Natalie Gordon, the local divorcee with the looks to kill done went and got herself killed. The suspect list is pretty large - Natalie had managed to attract the eyes of nearly every male in town. Did she turn down too many dates? Or did another woman get jealous and take out her competition?
Gossip points to so many people in town. There’s Darren who kept following Natalie around asking her out even though she kept saying no. There’s her ex-husband who she caught cheating and wanted her back even though she kept saying no. There’s the deputy who she was seeing on the side and wanted something more but she kept on saying no.
She kept saying no. Until someone said...yes. To her murder.
It’s up to Ember, her ghost from another mother (ancestrally speaking), and her cat familiar Kali to find the real killer fast before they strike again. But they better be careful. Because Sheriff Cedric, the cute wolf shifter sheriff is watching Ember. And he’s going to use those big, muscular forearms to remove Ember from the scene if he catches her.
Will she cozy up to the truth, or could the lady killer get her too?

Temporary Paws
2020
A spirit is haunting Ember and her pub. You could say she’s got a paw-tergeist.
But that’s not even the worst part. There’s another dead body that’s been found, this time in a nearby inn. The victim? A devious husband who left behind his jilted wife and cheated business partner. Usually a matter for the police, except this time the murder is affecting the reputation of the inn owner, Luka, who is also Ember’s dear friend..
With the help of her beau, Cedric, Ember needs to clear Luka of the crime while finding the suspect. That’s going to be hard because most of the signs point straight to her.
On top of all that, Ember has another mystery she needs to solve. Her boyfriend Cedric claims she had a sister, but Ember doesn’t remember anyone like that from her past.It’s like someone just made the memories just vanish from her mind.
And who in tarnation is haunting her pub? Pranking customers and playing tricks on Ember and her staff?
It’s going to take a wolf-shifter sheriff, a witch, and her snarky feline familiar along with all their friends to close these mysteries to tie up all these loose ends before someone ties Ember up for good!
In the murder way. Not the dating way (It’s not that kind of book!)

Ember the witch solves a purr-fect murder!
It was just another quiet night in her tiny town when Ember McNair got word that the local security guard at the art museum had been knocked out.
A priceless painting had been stolen.
Against her better judgment, Ember promised her beau, Cedric, that she would respect his position as sheriff and stay out of the investigation.
But then the painting showed up. Along with a dead body!
Turns out the painting is known to be a \cursed\ painting. And someone looked to have stolen it and placed it in the home of the murder victim.
Ember knew at that moment that she was needed. Teamed up with Kali (her feline familiar), Sage (her ditzy-witch best friend), and an ancestral ghost, Ember could crack this case before the murderer strikes again.
But what about all those promises to not get involved??
Furr-getaboutit!

Ember McNair faces her most furr-midable challenge yet!
Ember should have known that after she tried to help her friend Kathy O’Connell get the courage she needed to leave her boyfriend, Steve Smits (noted mean food critic and notorious philanderer), that things would blow up in her face.
Now Kathy is implicated in a murder charge after Steve is found dead after their conversation. It’s going to take everything that Ember’s spell book has to investigate this murder. Luckily, she’ll have the help of her Sun Tzu quoting feline familiar, Kali. And lets not forget Cedric, her handsome wolf shifter sheriff fiancé.
All this would be a lot but wait there’s more! Ember and Cedric have figured out that someone has erased her memory. Specifically of her sister, Ashley. Why would they erase her memory and is the mysterious woman that Cedric has found really Ember’s long-lost sister? Does she even want to be found?
It’s enough make anyone go hiss-terical!

Ding Dong the witch is dead!
And now the whole town is filled with dread…

At first everything thinks it’s a suicide, but the more Ember investigates with her feline familiar and her friends, the more she’s convinced it’s a murder.
Which means the murderer is out there, trying to cover their tracks. It could be anyone. Even her long lost sister, Ash, who somehow managed to have her memories wiped from Ember’s brain. She can’t be sure, but Ember can’t help thinking there’s a connection with Ash showing up and Cassandra croaking.
But with Ember’s wedding coming up and jealousy running high, will this sassy witch solve the crime and discover the secrets that Cassandra left behind? Or will those secrets spill out and take the whole town with it?

Can Ember uncover the kitten agenda of a cold blooded killer…while proving she’s Cop Notch?
Welcome back to the witching world of Ember McNair-Jamison, small town Louisiana’s favorite tavern owner/sheriff’s deputy/witch. Ember and her motley crew of friends, foes, and frenemies certainly make life interesting in Cauchemar, even without the occasional big city murder.
Ember’s deputy status is challenged when she must complete training at the rigorous, exacting Cauchemar Police Academy. But she’s not going alone. Vampires, Mummies, shape shifters, and of course Kali the feline familiar will be learning how to protect and serve Louisana right along side Ember—with predictably hilarious results.
Of course, Ember can’t go long without being embroiled in a murder case, and this one is a real doozy. The crime scene went up in flames, the body has been entombed in concrete for ten years, and she can’t swing a very much alive, stark raving angry cat without hitting a suspect.
Worse, B.L.C. Bubb has demanded she solve a wickedly complex puzzle—and the clock’s ticking.
Can Ember juggle training, her marriage, the murder investigation, and suffer the acerbic wit of Kali long enough to save the day? You know what they say…

How do you make a witch like Ember scratch?
Simple. Take away the ‘w’.
Ember McNair has had enough.
Everything is telling her that she has a loving family, a wonderful husband, amazing friends, and fantastic feline familiar.
Except for the nagging sensation that it’s all…wrong.
Whether it’s a well placed clue or a sudden fleeting face in the crowd, this witch is getting the impression that something is up.
Add to all that a new murder that rocks the town.
This time, the killer isn’t anyone worth any sympathy. But the killer strikes again. And again. And each time they get a little bit more bolder, and come a little closer to Ember’s family.
Its up to this witch and her feline familiar to catch the crazy killer before they strike again. All the while trying to figure out who she can trust.
Everywhere she turns, she sees signs that she’s trapped in an illusion. She has to break out. Because if it turns out she’s wrong there’s only one other explanation.
That she’s lost her mind.
