"All the best stories in the world are but one story in reality -- the story of escape. It is the only thing which interests us all and at all times, how to escape."
--Author Christopher Benson

It's a 2fer Thursday!!!

Cricket McRae's Home Crafting Series
This series features Sophie Mae Reynolds, her housemate and best friend Meghan Bly and her daughter Erin and their corgi, Brodie. Sophie Mae makes beauty products and runs her business out of the basement of their home, and Meghan is a lawyer turned massage therapist who also works at home.

Lye In Wait Book #1 in the series

The author has you from page one as a body is found in the basement workroom of Sophie Mae. The body is their handyman and next door neighbor Walter Hanover and it appears he has died from drinking a glass filled with lye. Something Sophia Mae keeps on hand for her business in a large supply. Do the police think she s the murderer, No, they rule it a suicide. But Sophie Mae doesn’t believe it for a second and the book takes us on a wild ride as she investigates.



Heaven Preserve Us Book #2 in the Series

Sophie Mae is not only building her business she is now volunteering at a community center answering their help line. After one night she is being stalked by one of her callers. Then her boss at the center dies of food poisoning and her boyfriend also ends up in the hospital with a case of food poisoning but thankfully his case it is not fatal. The police leave everything up to the health department and they think they have found the source, but Sophie Mae doesn’t buy it and is off investigating yet again.

I really enjoyed both of these books, there was suspense, plot twists and turns, and wonderful characters. I can honestly say they were UNPUTDOWNABLE. I am really looking forward to book #3.
