What a Nunderful World
Summary
Hello! It's me again, Trixie Lavender and my best demon friend the stoic but adorable Coop. Things have been going pretty great for us these days. Inkerbelle's Tattoos is doing well financially. Our clientele is growing by the day, and we're about to purchase the guest house we've been living in from our dear friend Knuckles. Finally, we'll have the roots we've so desperately yearned for. Now, if only we could figure out how to get rid of the troublesome demon inside me... We've also been focusing on Coop and her efforts to live her best life. As a newb to Earth, she's on a quest to experience as much as she possibly can and that includes her latest passion, makeup. While attending an event for Coop's favorite beauty guru and online superstar Glitzy Mitzy, we watch in horror as she dies right before our very eyes. Naturally, we suspect foul play, but with no clues, and the police not calling Mitzy's death a murder, we have little to go on. But does that stop me? Nah. So you know what that means-it's time to break out our best spyware and solve this murder!

So at 32, Esther enrolls in the only class at the Y with a spot left. A Mommy and Me class - which seems quite tame, considering her oldest classmate aside from her is three years old.

Oh, and hair the color of a rainbow. Lots and lots of luscious hair. Lucky for her, the OOPS girls are on site, and as they set about finding out how this happened to Esther, they run into a hunky Australian merman named Tucker Pearson who happens to be the key to Esther's problem. But Tucker has problems of his own, and they include being kicked out of his family's bottled water company, booted from his pod, and accused of embezzling over a million bucks. Oh, and killing someone...OOPS, here we go again!

Witch Is the New Black
Summary
After spending 10 months in magic-abuse jail for a crime she doesn't remember committing, accident-prone witch-in-denial Bernice Sutton is zapped to the small paranormal town of Paris, Texas. With Miss Fee Line, her kitty drag-queen familiar, by her side, Bernie just wants to fulfill the terms of her parole - shoveling horse and cow dung on a ranch - so she can get back to Boston and dig into the mystery of her parents' deaths and her witch lineage. But plans be damned, Bernie's quickly distracted by the town's quirky cast of magical characters, from Winnie - the sassy owner of the local witch halfway house - to the entire posse of Poise Pad wearers at the senior center. And then there's the biggest distraction of all, Ridge Donovan, Mr. Hot-Pants ranch owner. Maybe it couldn't hurt to let them teach her how to harness her magic; if nothing else, it might make her less of a walking disaster. And Ridge is one hunk - er, *helpful* study partner. Between learning spells, wreaking havoc on the ranch, turning bingo night at the senior center into a "whirlwind" of excitement, and fighting her attraction to Ridge, Bernie is unprepared for an unwelcome person from her past. On one hand, he's the key to her lifelong questions. On the other, he could destroy the new life she's coming to enjoy - and the lives of all those she's coming to love.

Witches Get Stitches
Summary
When last we met, good people, the biggest wish I've ever made came to fruition. It didn't happen without some help - okay, a lot of help. Either way, let's just say the deed was done. My outrageously handsome, smart, sometimes persnickety (read mostly persnickety) Spy Guy, Winterbottom, is finally here on earth with me, recuperating from his afterlife jaunt. And I couldn't be happier... Sure, he can be a difficult patient. He's forever bellowing my name from his sick bed. He likes his socks ironed and his toast cut in triangles, thank you very much. Add in the fact that some of the spells I've cast to make this dream a reality have had repercussions (an understatement), and it's been sheer chaos. But all tomfoolery aside, Win's here with us, and I'm thrilled, as you can imagine. Mostly. So when it's decided amongst my favorite men that I should take a day for myself and hit Seattle for some much-needed shopping, I hesitantly head out. And then I die. As you can imagine, it only goes downhill from there...

Witch Perfect
Summary
Now that Win is up and about, he's been a very busy bee. He's jumped in with both feet, getting involved in our community and living his best life now that he's unencumbered by his spy past. He even joined the Ebenezer Falls garden club and made all the female member's toes curl with his British charm. On a flower-scouting trip for the garden club's annual spring planting in the town square, while Win is ogling lavender bushes and pansies, I fall headfirst into a pile of soil where a body's buried. Not just any body, either. It's the body of the husband of a close acquaintance of mine - a close acquaintance who just happens to own the nursery and the pile of dirt I fall into headfirst. When he begs me to investigate, there's no way I'm going to turn him down, but there are obstacles to overcome. For instance, the love of my life. My International Man of Mystery, who keeps stepping on my investigative toes. It's proving to be an adjustment solving a mystery with us working in the same space. Add in Dana, who's gone 'round the bend, my sudden and unexplained investigative (not to mention ridiculous) possessiveness and everything's all topsy-turvy. Contains mature themes.

The Smoking Nun
Summary
Sister Trixie Lavender, reporting for Miss Marple duty! It's been months since the evil residing inside me has reared his violently helpful head, and things are pretty peachy. My demon sidekick Coop continues to assimilate with the unsuspecting humans, our tattoo shop is busier than ever, we're more and more involved in our little community of Cobbler Cove...heck, I'd even begun to attend the occasional Sunday sermon (after safely confirming my body wouldn't burst into flames upon entering Our Lady of Perpetual Grace, of course). Yep, life is pretty good for me and mine. Until the shocking murder of our new friend, Sister Ophelia, during a church-sponsored speed-dating event. Talk about flirting with death - literally. I can't fathom who'd want to kill a sweet little ol' nun, but as I've learned by now, life in small-town Oregon isn't always what it seems. When a second corpse is found, the stakes are even higher as Coop and I, along with our good friend Higgs, race to unmask a killer. But when my demon breaks free yet again, the killer's not the only one in danger of being exposed....

Hit and Nun
Summary
Sister Trixie Lavender here! After a rocky start (read: murdered landlord) to our arrival in Cobbler Cove, Oregon, things have finally slowed down. Er...mostly. My demon buddy Coop and I, along with our sassy talking owl Livingston, have settled nicely into our newly opened shop, Inkerbelle's Tattoos. We've met some awesome people, including new friends Higgs and Knuckles, and we're forging friendships with our fellow business owners. And sure, we've had a few glitches (see Jeff), but we've found our groove, our clientele is growing, and everything's pretty great. That is, until Portland's World Naked Bike Ride finds us smack dab in the middle of another murder mystery! Yep, you read that right. Naked people. On bikes. It ain't pretty. And even less so when a dead, bare biker lands right on our doorstep. But this ex-nun is prepared this time. Okay. Not true. I've binge-watched a lot of police shows on Netflix. But I'm armchair ready, if nothing else. Now, if only the evil spirit possessing me would let me investigate in peace - and I don't end up dead in the process.

Jingle all the Slay
Summary
Welcome to Marshmallow Hollow, Maine, where it's all Christmas all the time and murder is hung by the chimney with care.... I'm Halliday Valentine, a psychic witch who's recently moved from New York City back to my very human hometown of Marshmallow Hollow, where I run the family factory that caters to all things Christmas. I inherited the factory from Mom, who inherited from Nana Karen, but now it's just me, my curmudgeonly British familiar hummingbird, Atticus; one ungrateful rescue cat; my talking reindeer, Karen; and my BFF Stiles (the only human aware of my witchy side). Oh, and Digby Dainty (known as Hobbs), the tall drink of water who rents my guest cottage. We have a lot in common, including a love of true crime. So as macabre as it sounds, when a shady real estate tycoon shows up dead in the middle of the annual ice festival, I'm thrilled to spend time with Hobbs, flexing our amateur sleuthing skills. Well...not thrilled. I mean, a guy's dead after all. In fact, the only thing more surprising than a murder in our charming Christmas town is how many of my friendly, beloved neighbors seemed to want the man dead....
