1. Easy Bake Coven (2013)
Vivienne Finch is a woman of many talents. A skilled baker, she is set to open her new business, Sweet Dreams Bakery. A successful diplomat, managing to dodge over a dozen attempts by her mother to marry her off. Hereditary witch, she’s gifted with magic, but murder and mayhem follow along all too often.
When the Mayor’s wife is found stabbed to death in the dumpster outside her business the day of the ribbon cutting, a recipe for disaster soon takes shape. With a dash of double dealings, a pinch of small town politics, and a sprinkle of spells from a rare magical journal that only she and the handsome deputy can read, she will face the fire in more ways than one. Add to the mix one cunning killer that would like nothing better than to see the business go up in flames and her along with it.
2. Yule Be the Death of Me (2013)
It’s the height of the Christmas season in Cayuga Cove, and the residents are preparing for the annual holiday gingerbread house competition. With the Sweet Dreams Bakery a smashing success, Vivienne and her assistant Stephanie create a charming reproduction of a Victorian home landmark they are sure will snag the top prize.
However, when an anonymous "Santa’s Naughty List" starts appearing all over town, exposing the less-than-savory deeds of many local residents, the holiday spirit quickly turns sour. When the first name mentioned on the list is found murdered shortly afterwards, the gift of suspicion leads to holiday panic. Vivienne must catch a cunning killer before her own goose is cooked!
