Today, Tuesday, Feb. 11, is the release day of CANDLE WITH CARE, book 4 in A Magic Candle Shop Mystery series, which I write under the pen name of Valona Jones. This book features amateur sleuth Tabby Winslow, a psychic and candlemaker who is a fraternal twin to her sister Sage. The twins live in Savannah, GA, and they co-own and operate The Book and Candle Shop on Bristol Street.
In CANDLE WITH CARE, Detective Sharmila Belfor is seriously injured from a hit-and-run accident when she is off duty. Soon thereafter, Sage's former coworker and friend, Larry Rau is murdered in his home. Then the twins' high school nemesis is kidnapped, and her mother begs Tabby to investigate. To make matters worse, Milly Quigsly, Tabby's fiance's mom, is throwing them an engagement shower and now Tabby has to come up with a suitable pastel gown for the June occasion. How on earth can she possibly get everything done, investigated, and bought when she's working full-time in the candle shop? Can Tabby identify the culprit(s?) before she becomes the next victim?
CANDLE WITH CARE is available in print and digital format across the web.
