Hawg Heaven Cozy Mysteries Series

You don't bring me flowers . . . Rossalyn Channing, single mom and owner of a small-town barbeque joint, finds herself both annoyed and creeped out when a stalker gets up close and personal. Unnerved by unexpected visits and surprise bouquets from a would-be suitor, who was recently released from jail, she deals with the situation firmly, but politely, hoping that it'll stop. Rossie's circumstances take a dramatic turn for the worse when she becomes a suspect in a local murder, and her world turns upside down when a close ally suddenly starts behaving in a suspicious manner. Always a fighter, this fierce mom vows to figure out who's lurking in the shadows, but will she be too late?

One folded flag . . . and the man she vowed to spend her life with was gone. Her husband was supposed to come back, but now Rossalyn must rebuild and raise their son alone. Leaving their old life behind, she takes thirteen-year old Ryan cross-country to the small town where she grew up. On the road trip home, she makes a discovery. An old building on Main Street catches her eye and sparks an idea. Rossie knew immediately that it would be a perfectly charming place for a business . . . but what kind? When Ryan brought home a library book on bacon, her course was set. She had to open a BBQ and bacon café, and call it Hawg Heaven. Her late husband would have loved it. Things are not quite as sweet as they seem in the small town, however. A body is found behind her new business, which spurs a string of unfortunate events that pushes Rossie to the edge. Who is the menacing biker that shows up at the oddest times? Why does the sheriff have a chip on his shoulder? Rossalyn never expected to become an amateur sleuth, but if she doesn't figure out whodunit, the sheriff may try to pin the murder on her. Are she and Ryan next on the killer's list? Will she figure out the clues in time?

Ever been in the right place at the wrong time? Sometimes trying to be helpful can be deadly.
