I’m one of twelve authors in a Cozy Mystery Book Club this year (as you know if you subscribe to my newsletter, which always highlights giveaways). It’s a great perk for readers who sign up for the book club, because they get an exclusive free ebook every month, a book they can’t get free anywhere else. And this month, it’s my book!
Wrecked by Rum has never been free before and probably never will be again, but it’s free in March only if you sign up for the club. You’ll keep getting books throughout the year if you sign up at cozymysterybookclub.com. (If you already signed up, check your email at the start of the month — you only need to sign up once.)
Wrecked by Rum is Book 2 in the mysteries. If you want to start with Book 1, Risky Whiskey, it’s free now too! Get all the links here.
Bonus: There’s also an author interview every month, which book club members hear about via email. Author Shéa MacLeod interviewed me, and we had a fun conversation about the Bohemia Bartenders Mysteries and more. I’m embedding it below. Check it out!
About WRECKED BY RUM
When rum collectors collide …
When mixologist Pepper Revelle joins the Bohemia Bartenders for what promises to be an entertaining, rum-soaked tiki convention in sultry South Florida, she expects divine ukuleles, sublime swizzles and a chance to know chief bartender Neil a little better. What she gets is chaos — the death of a high-profile rum collector, a cast of sneaky suspects and ten thousand limes to squeeze.
With one of their own under suspicion, Pepper and Neil set out to find the real killer. But behind the aloha shirts and cocktail parasols is a blender full of secrets. The centerpiece of the convention is a high-dollar tasting of rums that survived a shipwreck and other disasters, and when a precious bottle vanishes from the crime scene, everyone with a ticket is a suspect.
As Pepper tries to keep the insatiable crowd inebriated and her gregarious dog Astra sober, she finds peril under every palm tree. It seems like everybody’s guilty of something. But who’s guilty of murder? And can she and Neil find the culprit before they’re smacked like the mint in a Mai Tai?
Wrecked by Rum is the second book in the Bohemia Bartenders Mysteries, funny whodunits with a dash of romance set in a convivial collective of cocktail lovers, eccentrics and mixologists. These quasi-cozy culinary comedies contain a hint of heat, a splash of cursing and shots of laughter, served over hand-carved ice.
You can see the series order in this graphic. Baffled by Bitters is a fun short story that’s free to subscribers to my newsletter. And more books are in the works. Cheers!
