There are more than 30 new titles hitting shelves today across a variety of genres – including mysteries, romances, thrillers, and more. We’re highlighting three of them: a cozy mystery by Lyssa Lund, a charming romance by Delilah Evermore, and a supernatural mystery by Kris Bock. Whether you’re after comfort, intrigue, or a touch of magic, there’s something worth curling up with today.
Are you a fan of L.J. Smith and Deborah Harkness? Then you won’t want to miss Lyssa Lund’s latest paranormal cozy mystery. The Mother's Legacy is the second book in the “Silver Mist Cove Cozy Mystery” series – a heartwarming yet suspenseful tale about the strength of a mother’s love, the danger of long-buried secrets, and the kind of power that doesn’t come from spells.
When a death shakes the magical town of Silver Mist Cove, human mother Ginger must protect her daughter Ivy – whose secret bloodline is drawing dangerous attention. As old enemies emerge and long-buried truths come to light, Ginger must confront her place in a world of witches to save the one person who matters most.
Meadowsweet and Marigold by Delilah Evermore is the first book in the “EverAfter CozyXverse” series. It is a tender, slow-burn Omegaverse romance that brings together understated resilience with the transformative power of love. It includes devoted Alphas, a fiercely loyal Omega searching for redemption, and a girl down on her luck who just might discover her happily ever after.
After a betrayal by her twin sister destroys her ballet career, Marigold Everhart escapes to the countryside to heal in peace – only to find unexpected connection on a quiet ranch run by Alpha Meadow Calloway and his close-knit pack. But just as she begins to build a new life among wild horses and warm-hearted men, a ghost from her past resurfaces, forcing her to decide whether to protect her hard-won peace or finally reclaim the happiness she deserves.
For readers who enjoy Paige Shelton‘s “Alaska Wild Mysteries” and Heather Graham‘s “Krewe of Hunters” series, Kris Bock takes a supernatural sleuth, adds some small-town drama and tops it off with a geological twist. Death at Rock Bottom is a paranormal mystery, and is book 2 in the “Reluctantly Psychic Murder Mystery” series.
After her predecessor’s suspicious death, geologist Petra Cloch starts working at a small New Mexico museum. When a retired engineer dies mysteriously, Petra and her friends investigate to find out if it was an accident or something more.
