If you enjoy page-turner cozy mysteries, loveable characters, and palm trees swaying in the breeze, you’ll love the Sapphire Beach Cozy Mystery Series!
Candy Canes and Cadavers (Book 4) Connie Petretta is thrilled that her family is spending Christmas with her in Sapphire Beach. They even come early to attend the opening of “A Christmas Carol,” performed in memory of her beloved Aunt Concetta. It has all the makings of a perfect holiday until one of the actors is murdered on opening night. With her mother and sister by her side, Connie puts her sleuthing skills to the test as she investigates the murder of her aunt’s friend and colleague.
Snowbirds and Suspects (Book 5) The snowbirds have once again descended upon Sapphire Beach, keeping Connie Petretta busy in her thriving jewelry store. Ruby, the owner of the souvenir shop next door, is thrilled to discover a niece, Amy, that she never knew about. But when Amy is suspected of murder, Ruby turns to Connie to help find the real killer.
Bridesmaids and Bodies (Book 6) A future bride commissions Connie Petretta to create jewelry for her bridal party. When the best man is murdered, the bride and groom turn to Connie to help find the killer.
Angela K. Ryan is the author of the Sapphire Beach Cozy Mystery Series, the Seaside Ice Cream Shop Mysteries, and the Cape Cod Cozy Mysteries. She writes clean, feel-good cozies for readers who love humor, lots of twists and turns, and happy-dance endings.
When she is not writing, Angela enjoys the outdoors, especially kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, snowshoeing, and skiing. She lives in Massachusetts and loves all four of the New England seasons, but she looks forward to regular escapes to the white, sandy beaches of southwest Florida, where her mother resides.
It is fitting that Angela’s series take place in fictitious seaside towns in Massachusetts and Florida. These small towns would be idyllic if it weren’t for all the bodies that keep turning up!
Angela dreams of one day owning a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel like the sweet pup in her Sapphire Beach Series, but she isn’t home enough to take care of one. So, for now, lives vicariously through one of her main characters, Connie.
I like when authors put there books in a set that way I can move from one to another. I feel as if I am part of this story. Ms Ryan writes with believable characters, great scenery, lots of friends.....on to the next set
This series volume 2 was even better than the first. The characters feel like old friends and the descriptions are so vivid you feel like you are there. I have enjoyed this series and look forward to many more books from this author.
