Hot Chocolate Series
Welcome to the Alcott Family Adventures Chocolate Cozy Mystery Series
Book 1: Hot Chocolate
Meet the middle-aged, eccentric Alcott sisters: Madge, Lila Mae and Dorothea, heiresses to the Alcott Chocolate fortune and mavens of Houston’s elite River Oaks. Madge ambushes Lila Mae with Dorothea’s manipulative plea: she can’t care for Bernie, their 92-year-old father, any longer. Lila Mae explodes in a hissy fit—she had warned Dorothea years ago that they should put Bernie in an assisted living center. Robert, Lila Mae’s astrologer, warns of impending problems and he’s rarely wrong. The sisters call a meeting with Walter Branson, their solicitor. They discuss Bernie’s nurse Bambi Chaline, a blonde bombshell who looks more like a hooker than a nurse. The sisters fear that Bambi has her sights on being the next Mrs. Alcott and the need to separate her from their father is at critical mass.

Henry walks in on an unethical situation with a client and her soon-to-be ex-husband’s attorney. He has harsh words with his law firm over the incident. One of his law partners ends up dead. All fingers point to Henry. This is the second time the Divine household has been subjected to a murder investigation. Dorothea and Joseph are strung out on raw nerves with the accusations, all the while with the twins teething and screaming in stereo. And speaking of Joseph, he’s about to make some major changes… after he recovers. Chance has to tiptoe through the murder investigation, or move to a temporary location until Henry’s name is cleared. Help comes in from the most peculiar and unexpected sources, which has Chance, Stacy, and Uncle Tito raising their eyebrows to their hairlines. Bambi has a string of luck no one ever expected, thanks to Jimmy Ray Chaline. There’s one thing the Alcott family stands for: solidarity! They will sort this murder out and clear Henry’s name.

During one last shopping trip with her father and brothers for dorm supplies, a blanket of fog rolled out of the sky at the mall, in broad daylight in plain sight of dozens of witnesses.

Book 1: Bonded
Roman Davenport thought he was the only shifter in existence—a freak. He first shifted to a panther when he was twenty years old. Now, in his forties, he and his panther are so lonely. Then he rescued Gage Stryker, an eagle that had been shot from the sky with an arrow through his wing. Like Roman, Gage thought he was the only shifter. Roman and Gage were so happy to have found each other. They spent the next fifty years searching for their kind—and searching for mates. Relationships with women were short—most only wanted the limelight of the city’s two most eligible bachelors. Then Ari Davis crossed their path. The woman was seventy but looked not quite fifty, with thick white hair to her waist. The attraction was a powerful pull for all three of them. Ari was so confused by the strong attraction to the men—that was barely older than her two sons—that she fled to Mexico for a week to try to get her head straight. When she returned home, they were there—waiting for her. Nothing would ever be the same for any of them again. They formed a bond that could never be broken.
