Critters and Criminals

Maggie Andrews catches alligators for a living, sells romance novels with her twin sister, and has approximately zero interest in dead bodies. So when she rolls up to a routine gator call and finds her biggest rival face-down in the mud with a bullet in his head, she does what any reasonable woman would do. She calls 911, texts her sister, and immediately becomes the prime suspect. Now the new detective in town thinks Maggie and her sister have motive, opportunity, and a missing gun with a very suspicious ballistics report. The hot criminologist next door wants to help clear her name. With the bookstore opening in days and their dreams on the line, can Maggie catch a killer before the killer catches her? Find out in Gator Queen, a laugh-out-loud cozy mystery featuring a gator trapping amateur sleuth and the most unbreakable sisterhood in all of Florida. Grab your copy and start reading today!

Solving murders, smooching criminology professors, and just the right amount of alligators combine in Swamp Princess, the cozy mystery + rom-com follow up to Gator Queen! Maggie Andrews is swamped-literally-as she tries to balance running her family's gator trapping business, "defining the relationship" with tattooed professor Jack Bianchi, and helping her twin sister Vera with her bookstore. When she's invited to speak at a conference about the dangers hunting for cryptids in gator-infested waters, she assumes it's a joke she doesn't have time for. But it's all too real; hundreds of Bigfoot fans are sure that their monster has migrated to the swamps of Florida. Against her better judgement, Maggie agrees to lead a group of them on a small expedition. And it's going well-until a cryptozoology influencer ends up dead. With her twin sister Vera dating the town's only homicide detective (and Maggie's own sparks still flying with criminology professor Jack), she has an in on solving murders. But navigating conspiracy theories, petty jealousies, and Bigfoot sightings make the investigation even more complicated than last time. Plus, she's gotta figure out - is Jack just along for the crime-solving ride and a summer fling, or are they playing for keeps? SWAMP PRINCESS is a slightly edgy cozy mystery, which means there is a little swearing and a few steamy references. Perfect for fans of Janet Evanovich!
