Sweet romantic mysteries…
Sweet romance is a sub genre
Sweet Romantic Mystery is a sub sub genre!
Most of the stories I write are sweet romance. The conflict between the characters might be
contradicting goals, or past emotional situations that have put up a
barrier. Their personal lives may have
been put on hold by career responsibilities or a variety of other elements that
may be a hurdle they need to conquer to find love.
But some of my stories include another ingredient. There is a mystery in the story. In these stories, there is an external
conflict that is creating danger, suspense, or suspicion, right along with those
same internal conflicts in the development of the characters’ romance.
In these books, just as there is no graphic sexual scenes,
there is no graphic violence. Violence
may have happened, or may be threatened, but it is not described or enacted in
a horrifying way. Sometimes these stories are called “cozy”, with a happily
ever after romance woven into the novel.
Do you like reading romantic mysteries?
Here are a few of mine:
Sunny’s Smile
Sunny is a doctor on
the Navajo Reservation in Arizona, trying to incorporate modern medicine and
technique into the Navajo traditions for her patients. She strives to honor her peoples’ beliefs while providing
them the best possible medical care. Benedict
Highfield, a wealthy and handsome pilot crashes his Cessna airplane on the
reservation. He knows nothing of her
culture, and their worlds collide. But
when someone is threatening the water supply on the rez, they join forces to solve
the mystery of what is happening, and begin to join their hearts in the
process.
Cindy lives a simple
life as a children’s librarian in Philadelphia, lovingly raising her deceased
sister’s two young children. Prince
Highfield’s bossy war hero brother demands that he deliver a package to her. The task is aggravating, until he lays eyes
on the adorable and quirky librarian. The
moment changes his life. Cindy wants no part of the rich young man who belongs
more easily at a ritzy country club than the city library. Prince is determined to change her mind. When a mystery from the past comes to life,
and someone thinks that Cindy is a threat.
When she and the kids are in danger, she becomes willing to accept the
help she needs. Can they work together
to solve the mystery and end the fear?
Noah’s Bark
Hope is a small town veterinarian and animal lover. Caring and kind, she rescues people as well
as animals. But when she sees signs that make her suspect that the company
across the river is experimenting on animals, she jumps into action, causing
quite a stir. But then the Type A CEO of Brandywine Cosmetics arrives in her
driveway in his fancy Jaguar, and sparks
fly. Noah Brandywine knows that he’s NOT
the culprit experimenting on animals.
But someone is. And the only way
he’s going to keep the feisty veterinarian off his back is to help her solve
the mystery and restore peace to their small town. But he’s losing his heart in the process…
Are you a mystery lover, too?
