Hello, PF&HT Readers!
It’s that time of year again. I’m not just talking about the holidays. I’m talking about another annual tradition— the Petit Four and Hot Tamales’ Group Novel.
Once again, we want to show you all how much we appreciate your support throughout the year by giving you a story. Last year, we presented you with our first paranormal romance, Merlin’s Daughter.
This year, we’ve cooked up a cozy mystery for your reading pleasure—The Undercover Librarian. Here’s your first clue:
Désirée Devereaux is not your average librarian. She can judge a book by its cover. In fact, every time she picks up a book, she
Dead bodies start turning up all over the stacks and that spells Murder with a Capital M right here in Harrow County. But Hunky Detective Danny Bonner is on the case and as he gets close to Désirée, he begins to realize there’s more to the sexy librarian than meets the eye. This laugh-out-loud cozy mystery/romance is a suspenseful read you’ll definitely want to check out.
So what does all this entertainment cost? $24.95, like a hard cover book? $7.99, like a paperback at the grocery store? $4.99 like some eBooks? $0.99 like some other eBooks?
No. The Undercover Librarian is FREE! All you have to do is stop by during the last two weeks of the year. And…you might win a prize! We’re giving one away EVERY DAY and two final winners on December 31.
So see you all then. I can’t wait!
Daily Prize – $5 Amazon coupon
Final Winner #1 – Petit Fours and Hot Tamales cookbook
Final Winner #2 – $25 Amazon coupon
Final winners drawn on December 31. Good luck! What a way to say goodbye to 2011 and cheer in the New Year!

Linsey,
Thanks for reminding us about the fun and FREE read coming up soon. Even though I wrote a couple of the chapters, I purposely did not read the last couple–I want to be surprised too!
Linsey,
I think this is our best group novel ever. I’m very excited about it. I started the novel off with Chapter One and I have read all the chapters and think our readers will love it. It’s true what they say — the best things in life are free.
Thanks, Linsey, for putting together this post. I’m excited to see what people think–oh, and to see how it all turned out since I think I still have to read the last chapter!
I am so excited, Linsey! This was my first time to participate in a project like this, and I am really looking forward to seeing the end result. I am saving the last chapter, too; I love surprises!
Group novels are fun! You think you know where the current author is taking the story and bam a new author changes it all around. Hope everyone enjoys our Holiday offering this year.
Oh, Sandy. You’re in for a surprise. The last few chapters are just terrific.
Yes they are, Marilyn. You’ve done a wonderful job on the novel this year.
You’re in for a surprise, too, Sally. I really like the last chapter. Thanks for your work on The Undercover Librarian. I loved your chapters, too.
Pam, I’m so glad you joined us this year. You did an excellent job on your chapter. Sounds like everyone’s waiting for the ending. It’s a good one…
Sia, I’m glad you could participate. It is fun writing with a group. The creative energy is amazing. Everyone comes up with something different, and yet it all hangs together. Can’t wait until our readers get a peek at your chapter.
Intrigue and romance abound this year.
I love cozy mysteries and haven’t heard of this one yet. I will definitely be giving it a go. It sounds great.
Thanks, Bella! We’re thrilled you stopped by. Hope you become a regular reader of our humble little blog.
For all you cozy mystery lovers out there, check out Bella’s blog: http://cozymysterybooks.blogspot.com/. She’s doing “12 Day of Mystery Novels for Christmas.” I’ll be looking into that!
Looking forward to it, ladies! Your group novels are always so fun! I like the twist you’ve put into this one, and can’t wait to read it! And I’ll definitely be checking out Bella’s blog as well!
Happy Holidays and happy reading!
