“In the coldest February, as in every other month in every other year, the best thing to hold on to in this world is each other.”
Linda Ellerbee
Month two, February at last! After the bombardment of events in January, I'm kind of hoping peace and calm are the mantras of the month, LOL. As a famous line in a movie once stated---'Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get next.' Let's see what this month of love in the age of Aquarius will bring... 💝💌💗💞❣️
NEW RELEASE ALERT I was thrilled to start off the 2nd month of the year with my Kindle cozy mystery short story, Murder in the Key of C!
“You are cordially invited… to… an evening of music, and murder.”
Country music queen Dorothea Applewood is out to solve the murder of her daughter with the help of renowned mystery writer, Charlene Christie. As friends and family gather at her estate on the anniversary of her beloved’s death, dark secrets and clues emerge about the fateful night. When the music begins, will the killer be exposed, or will tragedy strike again? Get your copy now--Happy Reading!
I'm thrilled to report I am back roaming the Cherrywood halls with Gemma and friends! Book 10 embraces the family skeletons and secrets some may wish stay buried. But, as every fan of cozy mystery knows, that ain't gonna happen!
The characters in this cozy tale are locked and loaded with shenanigans. I think Gemma and her friends and family are going to get their fill. Knock wood--this tale is planned to release in Summer, 2025!
My birthday visit to Half Moon Bay in early January was spectacular! The weather was sublime and the coastline stunning. I can never get enough of the waves crashing into the shore and the breathtaking skyline above. Truly a beautiful place.

Veronica's Reads and Reviews
Fantasy and mystery this month from the writers of X...
The Human and Dragon realms collide in Author Bazinet's latest fantastical tale of magic, romance, and family ties. Shirley is falling for her brooding, magic-user neighbor, Harold. To some, he seems aloof, but she's seen a softer side. As their relationship blossoms, an eerie encounter with a scaled dragon in Harold's basement puts a damper on their relationship. Was it a magical illusion, or is their reality about to take a dramatic turn?
Author Bazinet weaves a charming tale of family, relationships, and the life-changing choices they make. Magic crosses all realms however, and where there is a will, there is a way. Prepare to go on an entertaining and enchanting journey that will put a sparkle in your step and a smile on your face. A heartwarming read, highly recommended!
Lady Georgiana and her husband, Darcy have a manor full of unexpected guests descend upon them in this latest installment of A Royal Spyness Mystery series. Her royal cousin, who happens to be king, has asked them to house his paramour, Mrs. Simpson. Georgie's godfather has invited a movie crew filming a Henry the VIII film to shoot scenes at the estate, and her sister-in-law, brother, and children are on the hunt for a school for their son to attend and invite themselves to stay at Eynsleigh.
The mix of royals, actors, and family drama soon evolves into a missing persons hunt and a deadly find. Will Georgie and Darcy wade through the clues to solve the chaos on the estate before tragedy strikes again? An entertaining tale perfect for cozy mystery fans. This is one of my favorite cozy series, highly recommended!
Goodbye to a beautiful girl...
Our charming, amazing cat, Daisy (the black and white cat on the left) has gone to wait for us at the Rainbow Bridge. We had her for 16 years, but in 2024, her health declined rapidly, and she passed in mid-January. She was a cat with a heart of gold and is missed terribly by Bruce, me, and her feline sissy, Ebbie. RIP sweet girl, we love you. 💞
Welcome to my world. Wishing you and yours a wonderful February!
Crown and Kisses,
Veronica
P.S. Have a very Happy Valentine's Day! Eat the chocolate! Gemma and Rikkhe approve. 💖👑
