I am happy to see these four authors being added to the site. I’ve read and recommended all of them so this will make it easier to keep up with new releases.

I’ve read books 1 & 2 of Darci Hannah’s Beacon Bakeshop series, and loved them! Book 1, “Murder at the Beacon Bakeshop” was one of my favorite series debuts last year. I’m looking forward to book 3, which is scheduled for release this summer (July 26th).
I also have the Very Cherry series on my TBR.

Melanie, thanks for the recommendations!
MJ says
WOW! I’ve enjoyed all three of these series!
I wanted to particularly mention the Shepherd Sisters mystery series. I don’t think (??) I got around to mentioning in my recommendations. It’s REALLY delightful and the side stories are sooo enjoyable. LOVE these sisters and their escapades. The mysteries are good. I strongly recommend your read it.
I believe this will only be a 3-book series, though. The author wrapped up the side-stories very nicely in the third book. I’d love more, but I really don’t think it’s going to happen. 🙁
Last June I recommended (on this blog) the first book in the Avery Ayers series. The second book is due out this coming June.

MJ, thanks for the recommendations as always! Regarding the Shepherd Sisters, it’s a bit of a disappointment when a series is so short, but on the other hand, actually getting a series with a “proper resolution” can be a nice change of pace as well.
