Lend me your ... eyes! I have great news. The second book in my popular Cleopatra Jones mystery series is now available as an ebook on Kindle. It's priced at $2.99 Amazon.com
Which book is On The Nickel? I'm so glad you asked!!
Kirkus Reviews said this: "The second in this amusing and romantic series (In for a Penny, 2008) is a welcome addition to the cozy ranks."
If that doesn't whet your whistle, read this glowing review by Rising Star Reviews:
"Do you like
cozy mysteries with a Southern flair, a little bit of sexiness, and a lot of
fun in-between the murder and mayhem? Then On
the Nickel might be the satisfying read you've been waiting for. The novel
stars Cleopatra Jones, an accountant, a struggling nine-hole golfer, mother of
two teenage girls, and daughter to a mother who often needs corralling more
than the young girls in the household. Throw in a mighty sexy golf pro and a
pregnant Saint Bernard, and you have an entertaining read in itself.
To make the
story even more interesting, a murder occurs in the church parking lot where
Cleo's mother often meets with the Ladies Outreach Committee. And Mama's car
has an unexplained dent in the fender.
On the Nickel is the second in the Cleopatra Jones
Mysteries. The first is In for a Penny, which
will entertain you as much as the second. Maggie Toussaint should know how to
write "Southern"—she IS Southern to the core. I recommend both novels."
Note: In For A Penny is also $2.99 on Kindle!
Here's a snip of Review from Auntie M Writes: "Toussaint gets all the points right: love-able but demanding
teenagers; the push from an ex wanting a second chance; the pull of an exciting
new love; even the behind-the-scenes hierarchy and drama of Southern
churchwomen groups.
This is perfect for summer reading, with its lighthearted,
balanced storyline combining more than a hint of romance, as Cleo scrambles
find the real murderer of Erica Hodges, and all before her St. Bernard delivers
those puppies!"
Here's a snip from THE READING REVIEWER: "What a
complete and utter delight this book is. Cleo is a wonderful character and
all the people in her life just add icing to the cake to make the book a great
read." -- Mary Gramlich
And a last enticement: "A good curl-up-on-the-couch mystery!" from reader Ruthann Heidgerken.

I'm glad to be able to bring this series to you in digital format. The third book in this series is under contract and will release in hardcover in 2013.

Any chance it will be available for the Nook?
