TJ & Her Cats!

If you love cozies, then you'll love meeting my author friends! This month I'm excited to introduce you to TJ Perkins, author of Fantasies Are Murder (Book 1 in the Kim & Kelly Mystery series)



Fantasties Are Murder by TJ Perkins

Best friends Kim and Kelly love mysteries and it shows: just look at their favorite fictional detectives like Hercule Poirot and Sherlock Holmes. But a weekend with their parents at a peculiar resort which specializes in staging murder mysteries for the guests to solve takes a turn for the worse when the girls discover an actual murder has occurred.


Who are the actors in the staged murder and who is the real killer? Why do some of the faces look so familiar? How does this tie in with the strange couple seen snooping around Kim's neighbor's house earlier this week?


With their sights set on solving the case, Kim and Kelly place themselves in real danger as they draw closer to the truth. Now they have three days to solve the murder, or become victims themselves. Check it Out on Amazon! (Note: links may be affiliate links)
