Digging Up Trouble “Welcome back to Leafy Hollow... with quirky characters, lots of skeletons in the closets, and mysteries to keep you guessing. Verity’s aunt is still missing, but Verity is convinced she’s still alive. If only she could get back to investigating... but there’s a couple of other cases that need her more immediate attention before she becomes a victim herself. Rickie Blair does a great job of keeping the story fun while still keeping you guessing, and Petrea Burchard keeps the energy level up there while delivering a great performance.

Baskets & Caskets “Everything is coming together, but can Paislee figure it all out before it’s too late? With a big target on her, Paislee diligently follows all the leads and comes to the shocking resolution. A well written mystery with enough twists to keep you guessing until the end.

Brooms & Tombs “A bit unbelievable that high school students would be taking the lead on solving the cases, and the adults don’t seem to be very involved. Ignore that fact and you have a decent cozy mystery. Paislee seems to be the target as the bodies pile up and the clues point her way. K. A. Goodsell does a great job of keeping you guessing with the twists and turns. Overall, Carrie Coello does a decent job with the narration. Her performance fits with how I imagined the characters sounding. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.”
Bones & Drones “I thoroughly enjoyed this cozy mystery. Paislee has been around death her entire life with her parents being the coroner and funeral home director for Pine Grove. It’s a good thing her interests lie in forensic anthropology. Now she can put her skills to good use to help discover what happened to the young man who was found at the docks. K.A. Goodsell did a great job of presenting the details in this mystery. There were enough red herrings to keep you guessing and keep you interested in the story. I also found the characters very likable. Carrie Corelli did a nice job with the narration. Her voice was very age appropriate for the characters. There were a few little hiccups with the production, but they didn’t take away from my enjoyment of the performance.

Once again, Natalie Naudus delivered an entertaining performance. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.”
Thorn of the Night Blossoms (Book 1) “Assassins and spies are hiding in plain sight. Just be careful who you trust... The background is presented and the stage is set for what is sure to be a great series with a strong female lead. JC Kang did a fantastic job with world building and introducing the characters. Plenty of action! Natalie Naudus brought the story to life. I thoroughly enjoyed her performance. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.”
Finding Zelda “Zelda is the one who always seems to hold things together for her family, even if that means giving up her hopes and dreams.

Sue Ann Jaffarian has written a wonderful story dealing with family dynamics and being true to yourself. I love the moments of humor mixed in with the drama.

Sometimes it’s even better. Barbara Goss is a wonderful storyteller. I am always touched by her work, and A Bride for Nathan is no exception. The narration by Leonor A. Woodworth is fantastic.
