Fiona Fleming Cozy Mysteries

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. A Poo Poo Kind of Morning I tried not to look down the mouth of hell staring back at me from inside the glaringly pristine outer ceramic shell of the white throne, my throat catching, stomach doing half flips and a rather impressive rollover routine that would have gotten at least a 9.5 even from the Russian judges. Instead, I forced myself to smile and swallow and remind myself the elbow length yellow rubber gloves grasping the handle of the standard issue plunger were all that stood between me and Pooageddon. Suck it up, Fee. Big girl panties and adulting and all that. “At what point,” I waved the dripping plunger, wincing as droplets of yuck flew, “did I think owning a bed and breakfast was going to be glamorous and romantic?” Fiona Fleming is in so much trouble. Her recently inherited bed and breakfast might not actually be hers thanks to the underhanded misdealings of the local real estate bully. Despite her grandmother's last will and testament, Fee might me out of luck and on the street before she even gets settled. But when her new enemy floats belly up in her koi pond, she's the prime suspect in his murder! Can she uncover who the real killer is before the smoking hot new sheriff puts her behind bars instead of asking her out on a date? Dive into book one of the Fiona Fleming Cozy Mysteries, and don't miss the exciting sequels!

Chapter 316: Lucy's Magic

My phone rang when I stepped into the foyer of Petunia's but when I tried to answer, the caller cut off. I checked the number, only to find it listed as unknown. Weird, but then again, random wrong numbers happened all the time, so it wasn't a big deal.

I did a quick walkthrough of the main building before slipping outside with Petunia into the cold night air and crossing to the annex. The young woman on the desk for the evening nodded pleasantly to me, but I didn't stop to talk to Briana, instead returning to Petunia's satisfied all was well in the world. At least, in my business.

I'd come a long way in trusting and in believing in my relationship with Crew, in shedding Ryan's influence and the hurt he'd inflicted, but it was hard not to let doubt creep in after the odd and uncomfortable ending to my night with the man I loved so much it hurt. I hesitated to text him, finally sent a heart emoji. Seconds later he texted back.
