I love to tell a story, and mysteries are my favorite. Add in a dash of paranormal, a bit of romance, and a pet or two, and I'm ready to write. My mysteries are set in Florida and offer a taste of the tropics: Cozy Mysteries with a Tropical Twist.

I can often be found writing from our Florida home, looking into the garden, watching the birds and squirrels fight over their next meal, while I write. Our two cats, Miss Marple, and Fletch, often join me at the desk and each has their assigned spot. I'm not sure they are there to supervise my writing or watch the birds.

Along with my husband over 40 years, we share a love of gardening and together have written a gardening handbook for Florida gardeners. We are now empty-nesters, giving me plenty of time to dream up the next story.

Welcome to Azalea Plantation, where the past is never quite at rest…

Kelly Sky didn’t expect much when she moved to the historic Azalea Plantation under the care of her guardian, Lizzie Higgins. But between her knack for stumbling into mysteries and her mischievous cat, Harry, “quiet” was never really an option.

When Kelly discovers a dusty photo album in the library, she’s drawn into the hauntingly beautiful history of the plantation—and its most famous resident, Elizabeth Higgins, a woman whose ghost might still be lingering among the azaleas. A hidden locket, a trail of mysterious azalea blossoms, and a family secret long buried in the attic set Kelly and Harry on a race to solve the puzzle before Halloween.

But not everyone at Azalea Plantation is thrilled about Kelly’s presence. Freddy Higgins, Lizzie’s scheming cousin, is determined to protect the family’s legacy—even if it means stirring up trouble. As tensions rise and secrets unfold, Kelly must untangle a century-old mystery with the help of some unlikely allies, both living and… otherwise.

With a Halloween party to plan, a ghost who won’t take no for an answer, and a cat who always seems to know more than he lets on, Kelly is in for one unforgettable October.

Can Kelly uncover the truth behind the locket—and her connection to Elizabeth—before it’s too late?

Perfect for fans of charming small-town mysteries, mischievous cats, and a dash of the supernatural, Harry’s Haunted Halloween will leave you enchanted and eager to uncover the next secret at Azalea Plantation.

Lizzie's early retirement has her looking for a new project, but she never expected it to be solving the murder that ended her retirement party. The police are convinced it was a mistaken identity and Lizzie was the intended target, but why?

Lizzie is determined to find out why Sonia, her replacement at the college, was murdered in the old garden shed. With the help of her two best friends, Trisha and Kevin, and her cat, Harry, she digs into the murder.

Then, help comes from unusual places, starting with a note from the victim containing a code to the clues to solve the murder. Now, Lizzie is convinced she is not the target and is determined to solve the puzzle left by Sonia and find justice for the woman.

Questions are swirling with the dust, demanding answers…

What did Sonia know to get her killed?

Is Lizzie the killer's next target?

Is it possible the ghost stories she and her friends grew up with are true?

Lizzie never expected retirement to be so dangerous.

Welcome to the Azalea Plantation Mysteries, where retired professor Eliza \"Lizzie\" Higgins trades lesson plans for murder investigations in the sultry South Florida heat. Along with her clever cat Harry, and best friends Trisha and Kevin, Lizzie navigates renovation projects, cryptic clues, and even family ghosts while solving murders that hit surprisingly close to home. From mysterious film crews to coded messages from victims, each case presents new dangers and secrets hiding within the plantation's historic walls. This charming series combines Southern charm with clever mysteries, proving that retirement can be anything but boring when you have a knack for stumbling upon murder.
