ABOUT THE SERIES: In this fast-paced, fun cozy mystery series, Brenna, the proud new owner of the building that formerly housed Bonney Bay’s lone recreational opportunity for kids, Little Swans Ballet, is ready to turn tutu-clad powder-puffs into little warriors by opening a judo school for kids in its place. BOOK 1, TAKING THE FALL: Olympian Brenna Battle once had the fire. Now, she’s just burned out—and burned by love. She’s ready to retire from competitive judo and pursue a new dream in a new town, with her biggest supporter, her recently divorced little sister, Blythe. But on their first day in town, Blythe falls for local sleaze-bag reporter, Ellison Baxter, and their small-town welcome is stained by Baxter’s murder. The weapon—Blythe Battle’s hair brush. Now she must clear her sister’s name and save her new dream from ending even more disastrously than her Olympic hopes. Brenna must deal with one crazy member of the local police force, who’s determined to see the sisters pay—and another cop, whose deep brown eyes just might drive Brenna crazy—in a way her battered heart just can’t take. BOOK 2, POISONED PIN: Former Olympian and Arizona native Brenna Battle’s crazy dream of running her very own judo school for kids in tiny, historic Bonney Bay isn’t exactly off to a great start. She has a grand total of one student signed up, but she’s determined to succeed even if it means going door to door. Brenna’s search for judo recruits takes her inside the infamous haunted Reiner House, where she befriends a confused old man named Harvey, and finds herself at the scene of the second murder since her arrival in Bonney Bay. Brenna butts heads with Will Riggins, AKA Officer Dimples, when the poisoning of Derek Thompson is pinned on his uncle, Harvey Thompson. Harvey claims the ghosts of Reiner House are responsible. Brenna, busy battling the ghosts of her past failures and heartaches as she tries to get her business off the ground, is determined to prove there’s an earthly explanation for Derek’s murder. One that will set Harvey free, not only from jail, but from the torment of the “spirits” inhabiting Reiner House. BOOK 3, THROWN OFF: After a few bumps—and mysterious deaths—former Olympian Brenna Battle’s new dream of running her own judo school for kids is finally rolling along. Business is good, and her little Bonney Bay Battlers are getting ready to put on a show for their small town’s Fourth of July parade. Things are heating up between Brenna and her favorite police officer, Will Riggins, too. But then Millie Brown, one of the new friends Brenna and her sister, Blythe, have made since moving to tiny Bonney Bay, takes a spill off her ladder while painting a mural on the wall of the Cherry Bowl grocery store. Her suspicious death has the whole town thrown off. Amid the cupcakes and chili dogs and the bombs bursting in air, Brenna must risk everything, including her budding relationship with Will, to find a killer before time runs out.
