About this ebook

Olympian Brenna Battle once had the fire. Now, she’s just burned out—and burned by love. She’s ready to retire from competitive judo and pursue a new dream in a new town, with her biggest supporter, her recently divorced little sister, Blythe. But on their first day in town, Blythe falls for local sleaze-bag reporter, Ellison Baxter, and their small-town welcome is stained by Baxter’s murder. The weapon—Blythe Battle’s hair brush.


In this fast-paced, fun cozy mystery, Brenna, the proud new owner of the building that formerly housed Bonney Bay’s lone recreational opportunity for kids, Little Swans Ballet, is ready to turn tutu-clad powder-puffs into little warriors by opening a judo school for kids in its place. But now she must clear her sister’s name and save her new dream from ending even more disastrously than her Olympic hopes. Brenna must deal with one crazy member of the local police force, who’s determined to see the sisters pay—and another cop, whose deep brown eyes just might drive Brenna crazy—in a way her battered heart just can’t take.

I loved the build up suspense and the back story of all the characters. I would have liked to have read a book about Brenna and Blyth's men troubles as the first book, it felt like I missed a book or something! But it was one of the best mystery books I have ever read, and can't wait to read #2!! Keep up the good work!!

Cute mystery that you can put this very easy read down. Lots of twists and turns in the plot. Just when you think you have figured it out, you find that you are wrong. You will also enjoy the romance weaved amongst the mystery. B Green

I really enjoyed reading this little mystery. I have to admit, it did keep me wondering until the end who really did it. I'm definitely looking forward to reading more of her stories and I think you will too.
