Release Day-Silenced In Sequins b y Debra Sennefelder

About the book 

Former Manhattan fashion buyer Kelly Quinn is turning her grandmother’s outdated consignment shop into her quaint hometown’s hot spot for upscale style—until her second-hand couture makes the scene of an ice-cold crime . . .
 
With her bottom line looking a little threadbare, Kelly is going all out to promote the Lucky Cove Resale Boutique. She’s counting on Black Friday to recover her start-up expenses—including a website and an advertising blitz. But the publicity is overkill when two warring divas, and one sparkly evening dress, thrust Kelly and her fledgling business into a scandal she can’t afford.
 
The gorgeous garment came to Kelly from the walk-in closets of Wendy Johnson, one of reality TV’s Long Island Ladies. When Wendy’s former co-star, Diana Delacourte, graces a Christmas gala in the dress that was once her rival’s, a very public catfight ensues. But is Wendy to blame when sequin-clad Diana turns up dead? Dodging the show’s ever-present cameras—and a detective’s stern warnings—Kelly hunts for a killer before the powerful celebrity-suspect makes good on her threats and rips her to shreds . . .

A Cozy Cookbook by Dianne Harman author of Cozy Mysteries

About the book 
I began cooking when I was a small child, and as I got older, it became a passion of mine. I was fortunate that as an adult I was able to attend cooking schools throughout the world and learn from some fabulous chefs.When I started writing cozy mysteries, I decided to add five recipes at the back of each of the books, dishes that the characters had eaten or described in that particular book. I had no idea they would become so popular. As I continued to write more cozy mysteries, all of which had recipes included in the addendum, many readers wrote and said they wanted to make one of the recipes, but couldn’t remember which book it was in. So, by popular request, I have begun to consolidate the recipes from my cozy mystery series: Cedar Bay, Liz Lucas, High Desert, Midwest, Northwest, and Cottonwood Springs, into a series of cookbooks. This is the first book in the series.My only hope is you enjoy them as much as my readers and I have. They are all recipes I have used and are in my personal collection. Bon appetit!

And I thought 
What a yummy treat!
I enjoyed this delightful cookbook.  Author Dianne Harman shares some of her favorites including a few appetizers, breads and cakes, main dishes and more. 
I plan to cook the breakfast casserole that is made with only 4 eggs.
I've seen other recipes that require way more eggs.  This one sounds really good.
The Stuffed Baked Pasta Shells are on my list to try.
And for dessert I have to try the Dutch Killer Chocolate it looks just like on my mom used to make.  
There are also Decadent Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies...Hello
and Super Easy English Trifle. 

I enjoyed the Kindle version I received but, the print version is on my wish list.  I love a good cookbook and A Cozy Cookbook is one. 

My only negative was that I wish that there had been an addition of the recipes that have appeared in the books.  I would have enjoyed reading about the books too. 

I received a complimentary copy from the author. 
My review will appear on Amazon and Good Reads. 
A Cozy Cookbook will be featured on My Journey Back the Journey Back and promoted on social media.

Murder, She Encountered by Peg Cochran-Great Escapes Tour

About the book 

A gutsy Manhattan socialite encounters murder and corruption at the World’s Fair in this captivating historical cozy mystery for readers of Victoria Thompson, Susan Elia MacNeal, and Rhys Bowen.

New York City, 1939. A rising star at the Daily Trumpet, Elizabeth “Biz” Adams has been sent to the World’s Fair—billed as the “World of Tomorrow,” a look toward a brighter future even as the drumbeats of war grow louder—to cover a robbery. What she stumbles upon instead is a dead woman, dumped into the Aquacade’s pool with a nylon stocking wrapped around her neck.

Elizabeth snaps a photo as the police arrest Joey Dorman, a gentle young hot dog vendor who made no secret of his obsession with the murder victim. Even though she’s thrilled that her photo makes the front page, the fear and confusion evident on Joey’s face are haunting. So Elizabeth vows to prove his innocence—or his guilt—with her partner at the Daily Trumpet, Ralph Kaminsky. Meanwhile, her romance with Detective Sal Marino is heating up, and Elizabeth is more determined than ever to follow her heart.

But when Kaminsky’s efforts to expose the real killer land him in the hospital, Elizabeth is forced to continue the investigation on her own. And as she tries to narrow down the long list of suspects, she discovers a dark secret running through the Fair—a secret some would kill to protect.

Look for all of Peg Cochran’s delightful mysteries featuring Elizabeth Adams, which can be read together or separately:
MURDER, SHE REPORTED
MURDER, SHE UNCOVERED
MURDER, SHE ENCOUNTERED

And others are saying

MURDER, SHE ENCOUNTERED is an engaging mystery that captures the essence of the year 1939, from the optimism of tomorrow to the concerns in Europe, from sticking with tradition to striking out on one’s own.
~Cozy Up With Kathy

The mystery is fast-paced, intelligently written, and just plain fun.
~The Book’s the Thing

Murder, She Encountered is an engrossing cozy mystery with a mystifying mystery, exciting exhibits, soaring temperatures, a poorly reporter, meddlesome models, and a probing photographer.
~The Avid Reader

This is a great cozy mystery that will have {you} hooked and you will be taken back in time with all the wonderful sights of that time period.
~eBook Addicts

Exciting as well as dangerous. The descriptions and references with intricate details make all the difference.
~Laura’s Interests

The mystery is well written and even-paced with plenty of suspects, even the kind you love to hate, and lots of clues and secrets to be revealed. The characters are as technicolor as the setting.
~I Read What You Write

MURDER, SHE ENCOUNTERED is a fascinating read, from the “whodunnit” mystery, climbing suspense, and final nail-biting climax, to the amazingly detailed glimpse of 1939 New York with its Fair, fashion, transportation modes, and society rituals. There’s even a touch of sweet romance.

Southern Harm by Caroline Fardig-Great Escapes Tours

About the book 

A little Southern charm never killed anybody—until now—in an enchanting cozy mystery from the USA Today bestselling author of Southern Discomfort and the Java Jive novels.

After solving a murder at a local restaurant, Quinn Bellandini just wants to get back to her comfortable life running her grandfather’s B&B in Savannah, Georgia, with her sister, Delilah. But those plans get buried when Quinn and her new boyfriend, Tucker Heyward, dig up an old skeleton while doing some landscaping in his aunt Lela’s backyard. Before long, Lela becomes the prime suspect in the thirty-three-year-old unsolved murder of a high school homecoming queen.

Tucker is devastated. But Quinn’s conscience won’t let her risk an elderly woman spending her twilight years in jail for a crime she didn’t commit. And Delilah, bored by the quiet B&B biz, has been itching to do some more investigating of her own.

Soon they’re questioning a growing list of suspects, from nosy neighbors and snooty Savannah socialites to mild-mannered teachers and old high-school friends of the victim—including Quinn and Delilah’s own parents. But no one is safe from a killer who’s totally old school.
