Every single year. EVERY SINGLE YEAR!!! There is a pumpkin patch that you can see from the highway. It’s a pretty cute one that has a beautiful pumpkin patch on one side, a corn maze on the other, and delightful barn animals and jumpy houses in the middle. It’s a sweet place and I take my baby bassets there every year. The huge problem everyone has in the county is that since the pumpkin patch is right along the highway, the traffic is a hot mess for a good two months. Everyone has to slow down to look at the pumpkins. As soon as the first pumpkin leaf sprouts or a corn plant peeks it’s head above ground, traffic slows to a slugs crawl. Everyone complains about the traffic, and swears they would not slow down if they were given the choice, but someone out there is doing it every year. One person sets the whole thing in slow motion. I will find this person, and I will buy them a pumpkin so they can look at it for as long as they want. Heck! I will even throw in a corn cobb.

Maui was supposed to be a romantic trip for two; Armageddon was not in the plans.
But when Grayson Park’s bride leaves him at the altar, a solo trip to paradise seems like just the thing to take him far from his troubles. Then he meets the beautiful and enigmatic Hi’iaka, and his troubles truly begin — because when she’s abducted by the sinister Kamapua’a, a savage god-creature bent on draining her life by the light of the full moon, she calls on Grayson to rescue her.
And if he fails, the gods of Hawaii will drown the world in fire.
With his loyal, new-found Hawaiian friend Polunu as his steadfast guide, Grayson sets out on an incredible adventure that pits him against the very gods of Hawaiian mythology and leads him to the heart of Pele’s volcano, into the ocean to find the mythical Hook of Maui, and through the strange and brutal upcountry fleeing from elder witches and the mo’o demons sent to destroy him. But there are only two nights left before the moon becomes full, and Grayson is running out of time to save Hi’iaka… and the world.

Bennett Sisters Mysteries Volume 1 & 2
by Lise McClendon, Rory Tate
Genre: Mystery | Mystery, Thriller & Suspense
FREE for a limited time
It’s Eat Pray Love meets murder mystery in Lise McClendon’s deliciously cozy chronicles of sisterhood, international travel… and a soupçon of danger.
5 “This is a charming series of the adventures of 5 sisters. Merle the middle sister is the predominant focus of the books and one falls in love with her! Then we meet the rest of the clan. It is impossible to put the books down (my kind of books)! Merle’s adventures alone and with her sisters are simply wonderful. There is just enough intrigue to keep one interested and to move on to the next book. I hope you find the books to be as grand as I did.”
“Enjoyed getting to know the Bennet sisters and their relationships. It was nice reading about some women who have a variety of life experiences. These characters are beyond the age of 30. I think any woman would enjoy reading this but the narrator is in her 50’s and I enjoyed her perspective.”
A sprawling, exuberant, generous-spirited cozy mystery series with a yummy side of international adventure.
A little bit chick lit, a touch of cozy mystery, a whole lot of humor, romance, suspense — all in one box set!
BLACKBIRD FLY – Book One
A dead husband might be sadder except that once Harry dies, his widow, Merle Bennett realizes almost immediately it was no wonder she didn’t know anything about him. They’d pretty much been leading separate lives — several of them, as it turns out. Still, the will’s quite a shock. And so is an intriguing surprise — Harry left her a family home in a tiny French village. Or maybe a family home. Because who was Harry’s family? Finding out is half the fun.
Merle sets out to claim her inheritance, adolescent son in tow, and thus begins a sojourn reminiscent of A Year in Provence mixed up with something by Carolyn Hart, maybe, or M.C. Beaton. Because Malcouziac, Merle’s tiny Dordogne town, is the quintessential village — just perfect for a murder. And a rollicking good time.
THE GIRL IN THE EMPTY DRESS – Book Two
Law practice is in the Bennett sisters’ blood — along with designer suits and stilettos. But they’ve decided to ditch the more predictable Caribbean cruise or spa weekend at a five star hotel to celebrate Merle Bennett’s 50th birthday hiking the French countryside of Dordogne. There’s just one catch: Merle’s little sister Francie has decided to bring along a sixth wheel: a work colleague named Gillian Sargent, whose utter aloofness wouldn’t be so bad. Except she seems to be hiding something…
