Good Day! A Very Mummy Holiday by Lynn Cahoon will be out on October 29 along with Apple Cider Slaying by Julie Anne Lindsey and Shot Through the Hearth by Kate Carlisle. Christmas with the Shipyard Girls by Nancy Revell releases October 24 and it is the seventh book in The Shipyard Girls Series. Fan Mail by Daryl Wood Gerber publishes on November 12. It is the second novel in An Aspen Adams Novel of Suspense. So many delightful new books coming out!
Fudge Bites by Nancy Coco takes
us back to Mackinac Island, Michigan in October. Allie McMurphy owns the Historic McMurphy
Hotel & Fudge Shop where she is getting ready to start renovations now that
tourist season is over. Allie is dressed
as zombie pinup girl for Night of the Walking Red which is a zombie walk to
benefit the American Heart Association. She
runs a quick errand and is heading through the back alley when she finds her
cat, Carmella with blood on her. They
find a man crumpled on the ground and he is not coming back to life. Maggs Vanderbilt steps out of the drugstore
and instantly recognizes the victim as her son, Anthony. Someone used the
zombie walk to take out the victim. Rex Manning
is on the case, but Allie’s cannot help doing a little snooping. Allie needs to tread carefully because this is
an explosive case.
Fudge Bites by Nancy Coco is the
seventh A Candy-Coated Mystery. It can
be read as a standalone for those new to this sweet series. Allie McMurphy loves living on Mackinac
Island and looks forward to her first winter on the island. She has renovation planned for the second
floor plus adding a rooftop deck. Allie
is feeling a little lonely with her best friend, Jenn living in Chicago and
others departing the island for the winter.
Allie is a developed character who is friendly and relatable. She has some important decisions to make in
Fudge Bites. I enjoyed the twisty
whodunit with multiple suspects and unexpected action. I always enjoy a mystery that keeps you on
your toes. Nancy Coco gives us beautiful
descriptions of Mackinac Island in the fall.
I can see how it can be challenging to live on Mackinac Island in the
winter with the freezing temperatures, lack of activities and no ferry. Allie’s fudge making will have your mouth
watering. There are recipes for brownies
and various types of fudge included (Apple Cinnamon White Chocolate Fudge for
instance). There is an excerpt from Death
Bee Comes Her which is the beginning of a new cozy mystery series for Nancy Coco.
I am curious to find out what happens
next for Allie and the McMurphy. Fudge Bites is a spooktacular cozy mystery
with fabulous fudge, roof renovations, a canine with a keen sniffer, twinkling
treasure, zany zombies, and suspicious suspects.
Fudge Bites is available through Amazon* (Amazon UK) and other major booksellers in ebook and paperback (Barnes & Noble, iBooks, Kobo for example). You can find a list of the books in A Candy-Coated Mystery series here. Death Bee Comes Her by Nancy Coco comes out December 31 through Barnes & Noble only (at this time). Thank you for dropping by today. Tomorrow I am sharing my review Christmas Angels by Nancy Naigle. It is a heartwarming and hopeful Christmas romance. I hope that you have a upbeat day. Take care and Happy Reading!
