Twenty-five years ago, three college boys tackled an ambitious class assignment; a documentary surrounding the legend of The Flaming Woman, rumored to still haunt the highest ridges of Knob Mountain. The boys left with fanfare, but they never returned. Their remains were never found. Now, an old man approaches Intuitive Investigations, claiming he witnessed the boys’ murders. But when they find him lying in a pool of his own blood, the women instinctively know the deaths are connected. Technically, they have no authority in the old man’s murder case, but they’re committed to honoring his last wishes. Solving one murder could solve them all. With no definitive proof that the boys even died on that mountain, Willow bravely enlists the help of a so-called mountain witch named Karnie. Some call her the Bone Witcher, because she has the ability to ‘witch’ for bones. Finding the unmarked grave containing the remains of three bodies is proof of murder. Now they need proof of their killer, and it’s a dangerous path they tread. Book One of a brand-new series by Becki Willis, the award-winning author of over thirty books. Drawing from the rich cultural history of the Ozark Mountains, this series will be the perfect complement to the beloved The Sisters, Texas Mystery Series. Intuitive Investigations Three women.

This time, Noema’s past is coming to find her. Since becoming a werewolf, life’s been… hairy. I’ve been hunting down clues about my long-lost family, and so far, all I’ve got is a cryptic prophecy in a sketchy old spellbook that says I’m supposed to marry a reaper. Unfortunately, I think my heart has always been with someone else. Then a vampire bat bites me (rude), and suddenly both guys show up to play hero. But neither of them can do much when a stalker leaves a dead body in the middle of my video rental shop . AGAIN. That’s bad for business—and also slightly traumatizing. Now the sheriff wants my help solving a murder, the bat might strike again, and I’m starting to suspect this prophecy is more curse than destiny. All I wanted was to find my family. What I got was a murderer stalking me with a vampire bat, a love triangle, and possibly rabies. Join Noema and her ‘found family’ full of supernatural friends. HALLOWEENTOWN meets GILMORE GIRLS in The Bewitcher’s Beach Paranormal Mysteries – a series that can be read as standalone books unless you’re following the overall romance and series-wide mystery.

2023 American Fiction Awards Winner: Romantic Comedy 2023 NYC Big Book Award Distinguished Favorite: Romantic Comedy “A study in humor, irony, romantic encounters, and the evolution of a friendship…” Midwest Book Review Brian Hawkins has had the worst year. He watched his girlfriend marry another man, lost his job and his apartment, and after a summer under his parents’ roof, has taken refuge with his younger sister. A quiet few months in Philadelphia are just what he needs to clear his head and get back on his feet. But he’s barely unpacked before the bane of his existence, his sister’s best friend, shows up. His planned solitude is replaced by pop songs, rom-coms, and bright-pink hair. All that would be bearable, except there’s only one extra bed, and there’s no way he’s sharing it with her. Sarah Webb didn’t think anything could be worse than a marriage-proposal-gone-wrong walk of shame to her best friend’s apartment. But she was wrong. So wrong. Because she’s not just staying with Jess. She’s also sharing space with Jess’s older brother. Brian is grumpy and stubborn and—not that Sarah would ever admit it out loud—totally hot. He’s also off limits, which is why she should let him have the bedroom, stop staring at his abs, and keep her distance. But playing nice isn’t in her nature. As Sarah and Brian pull pranks and place wagers over who can lay claim to the bed, things between them start to shift. Sarah can admit that Brian has his moments, and Brian sees a side of Sarah she usually keeps hidden. When she needs a last-minute date for a charity gala where her doctor-ex is going to be in attendance, Brian seems like the perfect fake date. But as they spin around the dance floor, their fledgling friendship turns to something unexpected—and only one thing’s certain: more than just the bed is up for grabs.
