Publisher's summary

Wanted: Cat mum to manage a yarn store, corral two curious cats, all the while being tangled up in murderous mayhem and mystery.

A smart woman would dump her cheating ex, move from the city, and give herself a chance for a well-deserved do-over. A smarter woman - smarter than me, anyway - wouldn’t jump out of that same frying pan and return to Cape Discovery, a seaside village where her family is the nuttiest of all the nut-ball residents.

I’m a high school counsellor turned new owner of Unraveled, my granddad’s yarn store in town. More exciting than a delivery of rainbow colored wool is the news of movie location scouts in the area, though not everyone believes all publicity is good publicity. Game on between landowners to secure such a lucrative deal.

I can’t help being caught up in movie fever, until I stumble onto one of those landowners, face down in a kitty litter tray. Deader than dead thanks to an unknown assailant. With dating disasters aplenty both online and in-real-life and a hitman on the loose, things couldn’t get much more murderously crazy in Cape Discovery. If only that were true....

Tessa Wakefield has her hands full juggling a cozy craft store, her crazy family, and two men who’d rather poke out their eyes than describe themselves as cute. Which they totally are. Cute, charismatic, and occasionally on her mind when she’s not stumbling over dead bodies and using her newfound sleuthing skills to track down murderers. Lucky, she’s an excellent multi-tasker because digging beneath Cape Discovery’s surface can unearth secrets that kill.

Can’t stop laughing

As always filled with gems in terms of random jokes interspersed throughout. People will wonder why you are laughing hysterically on your commute as you listed. So happy I found this series

Fun Enjoyable Story with Twisting Plot

It’s a wonderful book with fun, lovable characters that you can relate with. Love that the cats act like true cats too not some sort of weird unbelievable magic-like creatures that solve crimes. The romance stuff isn’t too mushy over-the-top stuff. The relationships of all the characters are believable. And the plot keeps you guessing as to who did it until the very end.

book 3

A great story! I found myself laughing/talking outloud during this book: "oh, no!" "oh, yeah!" and "what?!" "who?!". Especially the "who?", because with these books, I can never guess whodunnit. I can't wait to get started with book 4!

Great Cozy Mystery with a touch of love in the air

I do enjoy this series immensely. Fun, clean, and the right amount of mystery. I also love the characters. They are real and can be recognized as people you might already know or might meet.
