I Love Cat Collier Mysteries!

I absolutely love these mysteries! I love Cat Collier and how she rolls with life. I’d die to have her fiancé Carter and his father as my in law. Nola cracks me up and this time I really thought she would fashion herself out of trouble. I love the mystery part of the book and how all the books tie together. This one was really good because of the other books being brought back in and you got some answers. These characters are fabulous together and they make the book exciting. I can’t wait until the next book to come out!

Carol Ann Kauffman continues to keep the mystery in Heaton Valley, Ohio

Well in this next book to the series, we find Cat making a peace offering deal, saying yes, and coming across girls in the back of a box truck. You wouldn’t think this combination would work together, but it does and very well.
Cat gets a call saying that one of her best friends from high school is missing. Someone at the Yellow Moon restaurant slipped a note from her into another friend’s pocket. Worried, yes. Terribly worried, no. This friend is known to leave on vacation without saying a word. But maybe we should check out the place and see if anyone has any information about her. Cat finds more than just her friend and it makes you wonder who else is involved. Got any ideas? I do!
Cat’s dad is hospitalized after becoming very sick at work. It takes a while to figure out what is wrong. But when they do, it wasn’t her dad who was supposed to get sick, but her mom. Why? And by who?
This one left more questions than answers. The mystery deepens and makes you think of who, why, where, and when. Will Cat run away? Can the peace deal stay in place? Will Carter bolt again, even though he said he wouldn’t ever again? And how is all this tied in together? Carol Ann Kauffman will keep us in suspense until the next book to the series is ready for us. Can’t wait!

“Get ready for a clean short mystery which will keep you enthralled and wanting to read more!” – January Black Ice (A Cat Collier Mystery, Book 1) by Carol Ann Kauffman

Mary Catherine Collier is called to the penthouse apartment of the city’s very rich, most influential lawyer, Detrick Bittmor. He has a very personal assignment for her. It involves a mysterious young man who sits on a park bench every day at noon and stares up at Bittmor’s top floor apartment.
Mary Catherine, or Cat, as she’s better known, has a soft spot for this lawyer with a nasty reputation. There’s something about this old man she likes and even finds charming.
Detrick Bittmor thinks the young man on the park bench resembles a younger version of himself. He thinks this young man could be his son from an affair he had many years ago with a beautiful New Year lawyer. This man could be his only heir.
And old man Bittmor isn’t getting any younger.

Get ready for a clean short mystery which will keep you enthralled and wanting to read more!

This is a very short book and it ended way too soon to suit me! It leaves you with a cliff hanger——Luckily there are more in this series and I can tell you right now I will be reading them.

Do you believe in love at first sight? Well, that is what happens when Detrick Bittmor convinces Cat Collier to befriend a young man who he thinks maybe the son he never knew he had until he received a letter from a long-ago love. Why Cat–who is the obituary writer for a small-town newspaper.

Will Cat manage to befriend the young man? And what happens afterward? Is this young man the son that Detrick Bittmor thinks he might be?

Get ready for a clean short mystery which will keep you enthralled and wanting to read more!

“Murder, a police procedural, and romance. What more could a lover of the mystery genre ask for in a novella?” -Playing Dead (A Jeff Gibbons Experience) By Karen Vaughan

ON A COLD NOVEMBER NIGHT A MAN IS DEAD AND HIS SISTER IS LOOKING FOR ANSWERS. JEFF GIBBONS IS ON THE SCENE TO GET THE ANSWERS RHONNIE NEEDS. GET READY FOR A WILD RIDE SOME ROMANCE.

Susan Lynn Solomon

Murder, a police procedural, and romance!

Murder, a police procedural, and romance. What more could a lover of the mystery genre ask for in a novella?

In “Playing Dead” Rhonnie Patterson’s twin brother Bo has a flash drive with incriminating evidence. What’s on that flash drive and who has killed to get it? When Bo is beaten to death in an alley, this is the knot Police Inspector Gibbons needs to unravel. But the investigation gets complicated when it becomes apparent that the killer now believes Rhonnie has the flash drive, and is coming after her. How to keep her safe? Enter Brian, a grief counselor and an old friend of Rhonnie’s. In the midst of mayhem love blossoms. The story moves from Toronto to cabin in the north of Canada, and the tension builds.

While Gibbons, Rhonnie and Brian search for answers, “Playing Dead” twists and turns in ways I didn’t see coming. This novella is definitely a fun read and worth ever y one of the 5-stars I’ve given it.
