No good deed goes unpunished! When newly widowed Kate Huntington agrees to help her closest friend’s elderly aunt with a problem, the “problem” ends up dead and Kate ends up in the middle of a police investigation.

As the investigation progresses, she is finding it hard to deny her attraction to one of the parties involved. But it’s too soon; she’s still grieving for her beloved Eddie. Then her friend Rob surprises everyone when his reaction to this potential romance is both intense and negative. Is he only concerned that his friend will get hurt, or could he be jealous? Meanwhile, the residents of the Lancaster retirement community continue to die off, and not from natural causes. Soon the question becomes not just whether they’ll find the killer, but at what cost…her friendship with Rob? Or one of their lives? female sleuth, women detectives, mystery & detective, women sleuths, friendship, mystery series, cozy mystery, romantic suspense, retirement community

What could be more innocent than a country flea market? When service dog trainer Marcia Banks takes up temporary residence with her best friend in Williston, Florida, her goals are simple: spoil her toddler godchildren and train her newest dog’s veteran owner, a vendor at a local flea market. Ha, the universe has other plans. When the owner of the flea market is found dead and her client is a prime suspect, she discovers that nothing is as it seems—from the flea market owner himself, to the ornate dragonhead cane he gave to her client, to the beautiful but not very bright young woman whom her client has a crush on. The only true innocent in the bunch seems to be her guileless client. But when he shares a confidence that puts her in a double bind with local law enforcement, she’s not sure she can even trust him. Despite her promises to her new husband to not "poke around" in the investigation, the only way out of her no-win dilemma seems to be to find the real killer. The flea market, however, is hiding more secrets, and at least one of them could be deadly.
