AUTHOR RUBY BLAYLOCK
 
THAT WITCH DOESN'T KILL YOU (BOOK 1)
 

Being a witch is a lot harder than it looks.

When single mom Twyla Hedgewood is told that she's one of three very powerful witches, she's pretty doubtful. After all, she can barely balance her checkbook, nevermind tackle complicated spells and magic. Her sisters seem to be handling the witchy stuff much better than she is, but her grandmother is convinced that the three of them are somehow the most powerful witches their sleepy little town has ever seen. After all, they're not just witches, but they're half faery, too.

When her lousy ex-husband winds up murdered in her bed, Twyla has to prove that she's innocent, but that won't be easy. The Sheriff hates her entire family and would like nothing more than to see Twyla get locked up forever for the murder. With the help of her two sisters and a few quirky supernatural friends, can Twyla figure out who really killed her ex so she can clear her name and possibly nab a date with the cute shifter cop investigating her?


Welcome to Frog Hollow, Mississippi, where paranormal and normal are pretty much the same thing.

Family, friends, and freaks...

Meet the residents of a town with a very special link to the 'Other Side,' a town whose residents include vampires, shapeshifters, demons, angels, and the occasional drunk faery. It's a town with many secrets and shames, and it's up to Twyla and her sisters to sort through them all and figure out just who they can trust.

BREWING LOVE
 

Witch way to Tree’s Hollow?


When Lenora “Lenny” Brewer finds herself fed up with her life in the city, she flees to her Aunt’s bed and breakfast in the small town of Tree’s Hollow. A local handyman turns up dead, and Lenny gets herself mixed up in a murder mystery.

Add in a hunky forest ranger, her dream job as an investigative journalist for the local paper, and a cat with so much sass it’s practically criminal, and you’ve got a recipe for a magically good time. Oh and one more thing, Lenny didn’t even know she was a witch until she arrived at her new home in Tree’s Hollow.

Will she learn to harness the craft brewing inside of her, or will trouble boil over and destroy everything she comes to love?

Brewing Love is suitable for readers of all ages who enjoy lighthearted paranormal cozies.

CURSE THE DAY (BOOK 1)
​

The only magic Emma Hart believes in is caffeine and the power of the dryer to lose one sock per load. A public interest lawyer buried under a mound of student debt, Emma’s whole life has been one turn of bad luck after another.

Her streak seems to continue when she gets lost on the way to see a client in the remote Pocono Mountains. A chance encounter with a suicidal angel lands her in Spellbound, a town where supernaturals have been cursed to remain for centuries--probably not the best time for Emma to discover that she's actually a witch.

Between the recent murder of the town’s public defender, a goblin accused of theft, remedial witch classes, and the attention of one smoking hot vampire, Emma struggles to navigate this unfamiliar terrain without losing her mind...or her life.

SHIFTING AND BEWITCHING (BOOK 1)
 

Welcome to Enchanted Shores, where magic is new normal.
 
Hairstylist Sadie Summer just wants to figure out a way to pay a tax bill and keep the house she inherited from her foster mother. Instead she gets adopted by a demon kitten, discovers a talent for making water obey her every command, and ends up watching over a handsome stranger in the hospital. And that's all before noon on a Tuesday.

 
When her boss turns up dead, it's up to Sadie to solve the mysteries swirling around the town of Enchanted Shores. Why? Because she might be the next victim--and the ability to command water might mean she's a witch.  

 
Magic. Mayhem. Maybe even true love. And it all starts with a kitten, a plumbing calamity, and a trip to the beach.

A SPELL OF TROUBLE
 

When town trouble maker, Louella Drummond, drops dead in front of Isolde Quinn's pet store just minutes after threatening both Issy and her cousin Graeme, the police in the small lakeside town of Silver Hollow assume it's from natural causes.

... Until it's discovered that Louella was murdered.

Not just any murder, though. Murder by paranormal means. Dark magic that could only have been performed by a powerful witch. And every law-abiding paranormal knows that dark magic is forbidden and carries strict punishment at the hands of "the committee" - the mysterious entity that provides law and order within the paranormal community.

Being witches, Issy and her three cousins fear they are at the top of the suspect list. To make matters worse, a secret division of the FBI has gotten wind of the happenings in Silver Hollow and sent two agents to ferret out paranormal activity. Even worse than that, Issy is annoyingly attracted to one of them!

Armed with their unconventional posse of familiars, Issy and her cousins dodge the efforts of the 'real" police and the special FBI agents while following a twisty path of clues that lead to a shocking betrayal.

THE WITHC OF THE NORTH POLE
 

A heart-warming tale of Christmas, elves, Santa Claus…and a really mad witch.
There are many things Cinnamon Mercy Claus is struggling with this holiday season: the memories of long forgotten holidays when the Christmas season was about family; that she’s just found out her grandfather is Santa Claus; and that her grandmother is a witch—who is bent on destroying Christmas for them all.

A dose of Hallmark-warmth mixed with crazy witch mayhem! Clean read--no cursing.

THE SKELETONS OF SCARBOROUGH HOUSE (BOOK 1)
 

Welcome to Chapelwick, a leafy English town in the hills of Shropshire, where chocolate fudge cake comes served with a side of murder.

Scarborough House is haunted, and it’s not doing much for Donovan Scarborough’s investment portfolio. No one wants to buy a place with levitating crockery, or (the wrong kind of) rhythmic pounding throughout the night.

Luckily, Melody “I-See-Dead-People” Bittersweet has just launched her own ghostbusting agency with best friend Marina, geeky, keen Arthur, and a one-eared pug called Lestat. They’re quick to take the case, even if it has already sort of (definitely) been given to Leo Dark, Melody’s rakish, despicable ex.

Melody soon discovers the resident phantoms are three brothers, one who was murdered at twenty, while the others lived to old age. But did the family exile the right person, or did the true killer get away with it?

Donovan Scarborough doesn’t care who solves the case. Whoever gets rid of the ghosts gets paid.

Can Melody and her new crew untangle the mystery, and bring the brothers peace, before Leo? Or will his distracting sexiness and Melody’s bonkers family cause the agency to fall at its first hurdle?
