My author ARCs for PAST DUE FOR MURDER, the third book in the Blue Ridge Library Mystery series, have arrived.
The book officially releases on Feb. 12, 2019, from Crooked Lane Books.
MUSIC DEDICATIONS from the BLUE RIDGE LIBRARY MYSTERY SERIES CHARACTERS
Being a little older, I remember all those radio shows that featured dedications from one person to another, and I thought it would be fun to share the songs that some of the characters from the Blue Ridge Library Mystery series would dedicate to one another.
So, without further ado, here they are!
Note, this lists song titles and the performer(s), not necessarily the composers. Click on the YouTube link to hear the songs!

PAST DUE FOR MURDER Cover Reveal
#CoverReveal time!
The third book in my Blue Ridge Library Mystery series has a cover, and it is a beauty. It includes the exterior of the library and a new character who shows up in book three — Loie, the abandoned kitten adopted by one of my main characters.
Sony Deal!
This is actually still difficult for me to believe, but it’s true — Sony Pictures Television has optioned book one and book two of the Blue Ridge Library Mystery series (A MURDER FOR THE BOOKS and SHELVED UNDER MURDER).
The proof, from Publishers Marketplace today:
We don’t know yet exactly what Sony has in mind, but I will keep you posted as I know more!
#CoverReveal for KISS OF THE ROYAL by Lindsey Duga
Lindsey is my critique partner so I’ve read this fabulous book in manuscript form and can tell you: PREORDER IT NOW!
Let us know what you think of the cover for Kiss of the Royal by Lindsey Duga, which releases July 3, 2018!
This cover reveal is brought to you by Entangled Teen.
About Kiss of the Royal:
In the war against the Forces of Darkness, the Royals are losing. Princess Ivy is determined to end this centuries-long conflict once and for all, so her new battle partner must succeed where the others failed. Prince Zach’s unparalleled skill with a sword, enhanced by Ivy’s magic Kiss, should make them an unstoppable pair—but try convincing Zach of that.
Prince Zach has spent his life preparing for battle, but he would rather be branded a heretic than use his lips as nothing more than a way to transfer magic. A kiss is a symbol of love, and love is the most powerful weapon they have—but try convincing Ivy of that.
With the fate of their world on the line, the battlefield has become a testing ground, and only one of them can be right. Falling for each other wasn’t part of the plan—but try convincing their hearts of that.
