A Jill Andrews Cozy Mystery

Suburban mom Jill Andrews has two young kids and a husband who travels more than he's home. Her biggest worry is the decision to re-enter the workforce, until she trips over the body of her neighbor, Samuel Westen, who'd been feuding with Jill's sister-in-law Desi. When the stress of being the police's top suspect lands Desi in the hospital with pregnancy complications, Jill must navigate her own mom-life crisis, sift through a tangled web of secrets and lies, and discover the identity of the real killer before it's too late.

A preschool auction can lead to murder. At least that’s how Jill Andrews feels...Local coffee roaster Louis Mahoney is supposed to have a basket to donate to the auction, but when Jill arrives to pick it up, all she finds in his office is his body lying on the floor. When Jill’s friend Brenda is suspected of his murder, Jill vows to find the real killer before Brenda loses custody of her twin preschool girls and worse - goes to jail for a crime she didn’t commit.

Less than four months into her new job as an events coordinator at the Boathouse Event Center, Jill Andrews is unexpectedly thrown into managing the whole place while her in-laws are out of town. One of the biggest events on her plate is the wedding between two of Desi’s good friends from college. When she finds the body of one of the groomsmen floating next to the Boathouse’s dock, she’s tossed into a media firestorm and ensuing investigation that threatens both her family’s livelihood and her life.

After a long, stressful summer, Jill Andrews is looking forward to a relaxing vacation with her family at her old friend Leah’s lake cabin resort. That becomes difficult when she discovers a marshmallow roasting stick impaled in a man’s body near the campfire pit. With a string of costly acts of vandalism plaguing the resort and now a murder, things aren’t looking good for the resort’s future.

Planning the Ericksville Haunted House at the Boathouse Event Center wouldn't be so bad if Angela Laveaux wasn't in the picture. To make matters worse, Jill allows her sister-in-law, Desi, to talk her into joining a local mom's group, which brings up conflicting feelings about balancing a career with motherhood. The discovery of a woman's body at Angela's house makes Jill regret her ill thoughts about Angela, and she vows to discover the real murderer while still juggling everything in her personal life.

Jill is deep into preparations for Christmas parties at the Boathouse Event Center, when a trip to the local retirement home with her son's preschool class turns up a deadly surprise. For once, Jill has no tie to the murder victim, until a surprise connection to a family member is revealed.
