We won’t be getting any new holiday-themed Cozies from site authors next month, but we will be fortunate enough for three new series to be starting instead!

First up, Mollie Cox Bryan will be starting the Classic Star Biography Mystery Series with The Jean Harlow Bombshell. Charlotte Donovan is the assistant to Justine Turner, a world-famous biographer of Hollywood stars who has started on a Jean Harlow biography. But when Justine turns up dead, Charlotte takes up the writing on the biography – only to be stalked by a Jean Harlow look-alike. Charlotte will need to solve the mystery not only to finish her book, but to preserve her own safety and determine exactly what happened to her boss. Mollie Cox Bryan is also the author of the Cora Crafts Mystery Series, the Cumberland Creek Mystery Series, and the also-upcoming Buttermilk Creek Mystery Series.

Next, Leighann Dobbs will be starting her Oyster Cove Guesthouse Mystery Series with A Twist in the Tail. Josie Waters has left her old life and ex-husband to start a new life running the Oyster Cove Guesthouse on the Maine coast, but she hasn’t realized that the building is a dilapidated old building in need of significant work… and even worse, her first guest turns up dead! Leighann Dobbs is also the author of the Lexy Baker Mystery Series, the Blackmoore Sisters Romantic Cozy Mystery Series, and the co-author of several other series as well.

Finally, The Scent of Murder will be the first entry in the new Jazz Ramsey Mystery Series by Kylie Logan. Though Jazz Ramsey’s main job is as an administrative assistant at a girls school, she’s more passionate about her volunteer interest as a cadaver dog handler. But when Jazz is out working with Luther, a dog in training, she’s surprised when Luther signals a find – and even more surprised when she recognizes the victim! Kylie Logan also writes the League of Literary Ladies Mystery Series, the Ethnic Eats Mystery Sereis, the Chili Cook-Off Mystery Series, and the Button Box Mystery Series. She also writes as Casey Daniels, under which name she has written the Pepper Martin Mystery Series, and as Miranda Bliss, the name she used when writing the Cooking Class Mystery Series.
