Dukes, Drinks, and Murder
2021
After receiving a most unexpected personal invitation for a weekend of leisure and celebration, Miss Victoria Parker leaves London for the country seat of the Duke of Everton. Although unsure as to why a lowly spinster such as she would be invited anywhere by a duke, Victoria's trusted assistant, James Kensington, assures her it must concern her late father’s accounting firm, which she secretly runs.
Unfortunately for them both, James is dead wrong.
On the first night of her stay, events take a murderous turn when Victoria discovers her host dead from apparent poisoning. Worse still, the other guests believe Victoria may have played a part in the duke's untimely death.
With a killer on the loose and her name on the line, Victoria sets out to solve the mystery of His Grace's murder. But discovering "whodunit" might prove more difficult than she first believed; it seems everyone at Stanting Estate has a motive to want the duke dead.
Knowing that she cannot complete this task alone, Victoria turns to James for help. As the two work closely together, new feelings begin to emerge, yet Victoria attempts to suppress them. After all, it would not do to fall in love with an employee. For each clue she unravels, however, Victoria finds herself not only closer to unmasking the murderer, but closer to James, as well. Can she solve the murder before she loses both her reputation and her heart?
A cozy, romantic Regency murder mystery that will keep you guessing til the end.

Captains, Lies, and Murder
Victoria Parker Regency Mysteries Book Two
2021
A month after solving the murder of the Duke of Everton, Miss Victoria Parker is ready to indulge in a week of leisure. And what better setting than the quiet solitude of the farm belonging to the brother of her assistant, James Kensington? Although the getaway sounds promising, it does come with two caveats: Victoria and James must keep quiet their budding romance, and they must play guardian to James’s eighteen-year-old niece, Dinah, a task to which Vicky readily agrees.
And a decision she will soon regret.
On their first morning on the Kensington Farm, Captain Walter Rummings is found murdered. Worse still, the local constable has cast suspicion on Dinah, causing James to fret. After all, if Dinah’s name is ruined, no worthy suitor will every come to call. Not to mention the likelihood of a sojourn to the gallows.
With the Kensington name - and Dinah’s life - on the line, Victoria sets out to solve the murder of the captain, a task far more difficult than she first believed. The man had more enemies than friends, and finding buried treasure may prove easier than learning “whodunit”.
As Victoria delves deeper into the mystery, she also finds herself struggling to navigate her increasingly complex feelings for a despondent James. As the clock ticks faster, Victoria races to save not only her heart, but also the family name of the man for whom she cares deeply.
A cozy, romantic Regency murder mystery that will keep you guessing til the end.

Brides, Blackmail, and Murder
Victoria Parker Regency Mysteries Book 3
2021
After solving the murder of Captain Rummings, Miss Victoria Parker is ready to resume her daily life in London. That sentiment is short-lived, however, when her friend Laura Grant is tasked to create a chapeau for the darling of the gossip columns. Miss Louisa Brooks is beautiful, rich, and engaged to a baron, and her patronage could make Laura’s shop the talk of the ton…
And talk they do – when the bride-to-be collapses dead in the millinery.
When the constable places Laura at the top of his list of suspects, and with the real murderer on the loose, Victoria sets out to save her friend’s life and reputation. The task proves daunting, for the list of people who find the baron’s fiancée disagreeable is long, and rumors of her tumultuous past cast a shadow over the inquest.
As James has been tasked by his brother to escort a young debutante around London, Vicky fears for the smile he now wears, leaving her to face her challenge alone. But as the clock draws closer to midnight, Vicky must not only save Laura, but also the new relationship with James – lest she risk both of those for whom she cares fleeing London, never to return.
