"The true story of a woman who would do anything for love and the lover who taught her to kill"--Jacket subtitle.

"Delightful and saucy!" "Really loved it and can't wait for book two in the series!" If a woman turns 40 and no one remembers it's her birthday, does that mean she's still 39? And if you spend the first day of your 40s standing in a dumpster, does that mean this is how you'll spend the next decade? Asking for a friend... Sergeant Wysdom Ward's 40th birthday is off to a banner start. She's forced to go dumpster diving for a piece of evidence. Her doctor tells her she's come down with an incurable case of peri-menopause. And to top it all off, her youngest brother has just made detective; something she will probably never be able to achieve because of the combo platter of a rookie mistake, her smart mouth and the burning desire to punch her boss in the face. Peri-Menopausal Irritation is real, y'all. Things start looking up, when she meets a magnificent man who agrees to be her birthday present. They toast with Champagne and chocolate, which leads to making out like teenagers and a sleepover that Wysdom can't remember. When this God Among Men is accused of murdering a local artist, she gets assigned to the case, searching for evidence to prove his innocence. But he's hiding secrets that could get the both of them killed. Wysdom will have to do something that goes against her very nature as a cop before she's arrested for murder too. A Hot Flash of Homicide is the high-octane first book in the Flamingo Cove series. Part murder mystery. Part romantic comedy. FYI: This book contains violence against stupid ex-husbands, real talk about menopause, sexy time that is definitely for ages 18+ and murder. Read at your own discretion.

Turner Buckminster is purely miserable. Not only is he the son of the new minister in a small Maine town, but he is shunned for playing baseball differently from the local boys.

First in the New York Times-bestselling mystery series: “A cleverly plotted cozy full of appealing characters and delicious cookie recipes.”—Publishers Weekly Take one amateur sleuth. Mix in some eccentric Minnesota locals. Add a generous dollop of crackling suspense, and you've got the recipe for this mystery series featuring Hannah Swensen, the red-haired, cookie-baking heroine whose gingersnaps are almost as tart as her comments and whose penchant for solving crime is definitely stirring things up. While dodging her mother’s attempts to marry her off, Hannah runs The Cookie Jar, Lake Eden’s most popular bakery. But after Ron LaSalle, the beloved deliveryman from the Cozy Cow Dairy, is found murdered behind her bakery—with Hannah’s famous Chocolate Chip Crunchies scattered around him—she’s determined not to let her cookies get a bad reputation, so she sets out to track down a killer. But if she doesn’t watch her back, Hannah’s sweet life may get burned to a crisp. “Culinary cozies don’t get any tastier than this winning series.”—Library Journal
