Even as concerned residents take sides over their town’s future, many are dealing with changes of a more personal nature. Novelist Wolfe Boone can’t seem to find the right niche for his post horror writing efforts, and his new bride Ainsley, known for executing complicated events with panache and perfection, is bewildered by her inability to control something as seemingly simple as scheduling a pregnancy.

NEW RELEASE: COOKING UP SWEETS - book 20 in the Samantha Sweet Mysteries written by Connie Shelton and narrated by Andrea Bates - For the first time since she opened her bakery, Samantha Sweet is staring at empty bistro tables and unsold pastries and wondering what’s going on. A few regulars still show up, the ovens still hum, but something is missing. When her daughter Kelly insists she take a quick break and attend a local estate sale, Sam reluctantly agrees. She expects dusty knickknacks and chipped teacups. Instead, she finds a stack of vintage cookbooks … including one that refuses to be ordinary. Throughout the handwritten binder are symbols and margin notes that feel more like messages than measurements. As Sam begins testing the Depression-era recipes, she experiences some weird happenings and uncovers the story of the woman who once owned the book, a determined restaurateur who built a thriving business during the darkest years of the 1930s. Her menu brought customers and her dishes brought hope. But the deeper Sam digs, the stranger things become. Her wooden box reacts to the cookbook in ways she can’t explain. Sam experiences vivid images after tasting certain recipes. And when the elderly woman who hosted the estate sale dies, within days, under suspicious circumstances, Sheriff Beau gets involved. Meanwhile, Kelly is determined to pull Sweet’s Sweets back into the spotlight by entering the spring food festival baking contest. A win, especially with celebrity judges in attendance, could transform their fortunes overnight. But as Sam experiments with recipes that carry echoes of another era, she begins to suspect that someone else is out to sabotage her efforts. Could a recipe from the Great Depression somehow lead to murder in modern Taos? Or could one of the cookbook’s recipes hold a dangerous secret?

THE DARK TIDE - book 1 in the Iron Tower Trilogy written by Dennis L. McKiernan and narrated by Cameron Beierle: https://booksinmotion.com/product/the-dark-tide/ Tuck Underbank is a Warrow — think a hobbit with shoes and “large jewel-like eyes” — living in the peaceful Boskydells. When an unnaturally cold winter strikes and the evil Modru threatens the world, he and a number of his fellow Thornwalkers go to the High King’s aid. But a vast expanse of lightless blizzard called the Dimmendark (sounds bad, doesn’t it?) is spreading over the land, and Tuck soon finds that the “dark tide” is going to swamp them all. Despite the fact that they’re tiny and temperamental, the Warrows get included in the military forces. But the High King doesn’t have enough warriors to hold off the horde of slobbering monsters who are coming to attack. And the battle goes horribly wrong, separating the friends from one another and possibly dooming them all.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Samantha Sweet is back at Sweet’s Sweets, her bakery with a magical flair, while husband Beau is now a full-time rancher. When he hires a young cowboy to help out, no one suspects that Danny Flores comes with a lot of baggage until Lila, the girl he left behind, shows up. She says she has romance on her mind, but Danny finds her manipulative and domineering. He changed his number and moved out of state, but she has managed to track him down. Beau and Sam wish Danny all the best, but there isn’t a lot they can do. But then Lila is murdered and the most damning clue, the words Sweet Dreams, point to Danny. Sam doesn’t want a mystery to solve—she’s ready for cozy time with her young granddaughter. Plus, she and Kelly have been cooking up some new mischief, discovering that the strange book with the rune-like writing actually contains something magical. As Danny’s situation gets worse, Sam realizes no one else, except maybe Eliza the calico cat, is going to help her solve the murder. Plus, Sam is more than a little involved, since it might have been a potion she and Kelly brewed up from the magic book that got Danny into this jam in the first place.
