A picturesque small-town oasis, Harlow House Inn is the perfect home away from home...except there's a dead body in it.
Maiden Harlow has a big problem. She's a smart woman, she works hard and she's good at her job, but despite her best efforts to live a peaceful life, a heartless killer has turned everything upside down.
Golden Glen had always been the perfect town for Maiden and her family to run their elegant inn. But when a guest is found brutally murdered in their room, the tranquility is shattered. The inn had been locked up tight and no one staying there claims to have heard or seen anything strange.
The new head of the police department, Captain McAlister, sees everyone as a possible suspect, including Maiden and her family. She must navigate his suspicions while trying to uncover the truth. But with an inn full of potential murderers that aren't allowed to leave town and some mysteriously disappearing clues, it's not going to be easy.
As she digs deeper she finds a web of lies and betrayal and begins to wonder if all the guests are as unknown to each other as they claim. They're trapped with a killer and everyone is in danger. Can Maiden rely on her sharp memory and eccentric friends to crack the case before someone else ends up dead?
If you're a fan of murder mysteries full of humor, romance and plenty of twists, then Murder Checks Inn is the book for you. Grab your copy now!
Writing murder mysteries and speculative fiction has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. The earliest days were spent crafting alternate worlds and realities while sitting in the car listening to a mix of country, Motown and 80s hair bands.
My serious storytelling began in my teens. I was typically hidden away in my room for hours. There in my secret lair I filled many notebooks with handwritten stories. I was about 19 when I saved up and bought my first laptop (I think I still have it shoved in a closet somewhere). It was incredibly heavy and had all the aesthetic charms of a brick. It was also a huge step up from eraser marks, crossed out lines and an aching claw-like grip from wielding my pencil.
I write from many perspectives - heroine, hero, side characters and sometimes even villains. I like to write about heroines that are smart, sexy and basically kind. All the things I want to be if I ever decide to grow up.
I love a good twisty murder mystery, and I also dabble in romantasy. While I weave romance into many of my books, I love to explore other relationships as well. Friendships and the many bonds within families are deeply important in writing.
I firmly believe that books are vital, and that our imaginations need to be protected and cultivated. And that boredom, especially in the hands of resourceful children, breeds creativity and strength.
One of the most useful lessons I've learned along the way is that if you're in a situation where you can't really conquer or surrender, stories give you the option to escape. Even if only for a few hours.
