Bed and Breakfast and Murder
by Patti Larsen
Ms. Larsen has given us a heroine that can go the distance…and then some. The action is well-paced, holding my interest the entire way through. Well done!
~Back Porchervations
I think this series is going to be a hoot and look forward to reading more about Fee and this cozy little town in Vermont.
~Storeybook Reviews
I have found a new author that has grabbed my attention. She blends humor and sarcasm in a story that is sassy and full of great characters.
~Texas Book-aholic
Fiona is a unique character, there was just something special about her that I was drawn to.
~Bibliophile Reviews
I loved this book being small town and watching Fiona deal with everything that gets thrown her way.
~Community Bookstop
Through twists and turns and sub plots the story takes the reader on a fast paced ride. A ‘who dun it’ for the mystery lover.
~ The Journey Back
The characters were a hoot and I absolutely adored the B&B setting in Vermont.

Synopsis
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 hasn’t lived in Reading, Vermont in over a decade, her escape from small town living leading her to New York City and a life of adventure. An adventure that has left her with no career, an ex who cheated on her and zero plans for the future. Her grandmother’s death grants her a new chance–inheriting Petunia’s, Iris Fleming’s bed and breakfast, seems like the ideal fresh start. But when Fee finds out ownership of the property Iris willed her might be in question, she’s drawn into the seedy underbelly of the cutest town in America after being singled out as the main suspect in a murder.

Chocolate Hearts and Murder (Fiona Fleming Cozy Mysteries)
A Multiple Drink Kind of Night
Why was it fancy Valentine’s Day drinks were always tinted red? Reminded me more of gore and mayhem than anything to do with romance. Which said a lot, I suppose, for my state of mind when it came to relationships and dating.No bitterness in Fiona Fleming toward the opposite sex or anything.
I sipped carefully at the mimosa the bartender smilingly handed me and shrugged off the sweetness. It had alcohol in it, so I guess it would do. A few of these and I might even find a way to enjoy myself tonight. Yeah, right.
Fiona Fleming would rather be home, at her bed and breakfast with her pug Petunia snuggled up to her while everyone else celebrates Valentine’s Day without her, thank you very much. Instead, she’s been recruited to attend another of Mayor Olivia Walker’s Reading, Vermont tourism promotion events. But when the young majority stakeholder in the White Valley Ski Lodge ends up dead, she’s ready and willing to help Sheriff Crew Turner and her father uncover who killed their victim while a snowstorm cuts them off from the rest of the world.

Isn’t amazing that people think running a B&B is easy?
It’s hard work, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Absolutely! I took the experience from my oldest sister who ran an inn for two years while raising a toddler at the same time. She was run off her feet but had a fantastic experience 😀
Than you so much for having me! It’s been a fantastic tour and I’m delighted to have met so many lovely bloggers and readers along the way. 🙂
