“This review is for Blood on the Books by Elle Wren Burke. This was such a fantastic story. The story is from the author's Vampire Pet Boutique Mystery series but can definitely be read without having read the series. I love the character of Josie Wixx who is a vampire with chronic pain and uses her wheelchair in the story. As someone that suffers daily with chronic pain, I really appreciate the authors representing chronic illness in this cozy mystery. Josie owns Matilda's VamPets , a boutique for fabulous accessories for the pets of Arteria Falls, a secret Vampire town. There are some things happening at the public library with break ins and vandalism and Josie is asked to investigate. She does have her PI's license after all. I loved this short story, it was so good, I highly recommend reading the other books in the series.”
“A wonderful collection of short stories from a great range of authors. A few that particularly stood out to me were 'A Novel Thief' by Jessica Baker, 'A Mystery for the Books' by Angela K. Ryan, 'Catheter Cliffs' by Mary Lucal, and 'A Cat Catalog Catastrophe' by Krista Lockheart. Each one has its own flair and there is a good mix of sub-genres keeping every story fresh. A must-read for cozy mystery fans looking to find new authors! A huge thanks to the publisher for sending me a free digital ARC to read and review!”

About Verena DeLuca

Verena DeLuca is a pen name for the life partner duo Sabetha Danes & NAK Baldron. When we’re not homeschooling our artistic daughter, we spend our afternoons arguing the finer details of books. Failing that, we can be found walking the many nature trails around our home. Marble Falls is an actual tourist destination an hour west of Austin, Texas, that we’re proud to call home. While Aconite Cafe isn’t an actual coffee shop, it is the name of our publishing company. We love coffee nearly as much as Hailey, though we’ve been known to break the cardinal rule and drink tea.

N.A.K. Baldron

Nicholi (N A K  Baldron) is an author and an avid reader. Stories that take place in fictional worlds, with memorable characters, make his heart race like nothing else. He spends his days debating between whether it’s coffee or tea time and pecking away at his keyboard to produce stories for his readers. Otherwise, he can be found strolling through one of the many wooded areas in the small town outside Austin, Texas that he calls home. Knowing how precious reading time is, he’s always honored when his readers spend their time on his stories when there are so many to choose from.
