  Are there some mysteries only a clever cat can solve? 
  There’s a handsome new guy at Runaway Farm and Keats isn’t happy about the competition. The bossy border collie wants to be Ivy’s one-and-only partner in crime-solving. Cats are unwelcome here. 
  When a curmudgeonly cat-sitter targets Ivy with slanderous claims, however, a curious cat may be exactly what’s needed to help sort out the truth from the lies. And when a Clover Grove resident gets their final cut in her family’s new salon, Ivy needs all hands—and paws—on deck to defend the Galloway name. 
  The ginger feline won't take no for an answer anyway. Not from Ivy, not from Keats. He’s determined to join the murder investigation and it turns out there are people to see and places to go that elude even the most ambitious canine. Can the furry rivals make peace in time to save Ivy from another stinking murderer in farm country? 
  Till the Cat Lady Sings is purrrfect for animal cozy mystery readers who love face-paced adventure, laugh-out-loud humor and characters who feel like family.

  Johnny "Thunder" Thunderbird, a Lakota American Indian, has been tasked with designing and opening an American Indian Cultural Center in South Florida built to teach non-natives about their history and culture. 
  Isabel "Isa" Gonzalez, a Cuban legal immigrant, has caught Thunder's eye, and he is willing to beg, tease, dry-clean her clothes, and even embarrass himself to get a date with her. 
  Their relationship is hot and tumultuous, with a lot of twists and turns. Can these two very different people from different walks of life make it work in this ever changing world? Will their families break them apart or bring them together? 
  Excerpt: 
  "Uh, I'm sorry." Thunder lifted up his hands and pointed to the back of her skirt and said, "I was trying to tuck in the shirt so it wouldn't look so bulky under your skirt." He looked innocently at her while lying through his teeth. He didn't want to scare her off and tell her, yes, he was trying to cop a feel. 
  "Well, I can tuck it in myself," she squinted at him. 
  "Absolutely. I was just trying to help." He raised his hands up and took a step back. 
  "Fine," she sighed as she stared at his chest in the mirror. 
  Thunder noticed she was breathing heavy and her eyes were dilated.

  Waiting for his car to be fixed, Mr. Satterthwaite sits in a tea shop called the Harlequin café, thinking of his friend Harley Quin, whom he hasn’t seen in many years. Then, in a burst of sunshine, the very same Mr. Quin walks through the door, along with his diligent dog, Hermes. Satterthwaite is telling him the very long history of the family he is off to visit, when their conversation is interrupted by the abrupt entrance of a member of that very same family, intent upon replacing her harlequin cups. Satterthwaite desperately asks Quin to accompany him on his trip, but the ever-enigmatic Quin simply leaves his friend with one word, “Daltonism.” What does that word mean, and what is the significance of Quin turning up at the tea shop on that day?

  Anyone who knows her wouldn’t be surprised to learn that Jilly sees the world through a prism of faerie tales. It was years before I came to understand that she wasn’t just being whimsical when she talked so easily about hobs and brownies and various kinds of faerie creatures. 
   
  They were real. 
   
  Faerieland, otherworlds, and all the denizens and creatures you might imagine to live there. 
   
  It was all real. 
   
  And so were ghosts. 
   
  I remember when I first realized this. I felt like my head was going to explode. 
   
  *** 
   
  Juniper should have known better after her last foray into the otherworld. But when she’s asked to look into a mysterious box full of poltergeists she ends up making a promise to seven teenage ghosts that puts here directly in the crosshairs of a blood witch’s deadly ire.
