After months – okay, a year and a half – of talking about it, the first book in the CHEESE LOUISE COZY MYSTERY series is finally here. Cheese Louise is available for purchase in ebook AND paperback on Amazon, and it’s also in Kindle Unlimited. šŸ˜±

If it came in rinds and wheels, they sold it. But can she keep the lights on when her bestie turns blue?

Gertie Pratt wouldnā€™t call it a gift. Although her psychic senses have been dormant for thirty years, the cheese shop employee is happy she married a good man. But the forty-nine-year-oldā€™s visions return with a vengeance when her witchy friend and boss is found deadā€¦ and it was no accident.

Returning home heartbroken only to walk in on her husband in another womanā€™s arms, Gertie dumps her cheating spouse and pursues her dream of being a detective. But in between juggling a hunky copā€™s distractingly rugged looks, a landlord forcing her out of business, and the dearly deceasedā€™s interfering coven, Gertie manages to bungle every interaction.

Can she use her unique powers to grill all the suspects without losing the fromagerieā€¦ and her life?

AND… There’s a FREE prequel novella

Tag along as the main characters from Cheese Louise – Gertie, Logan, and Louise – solve their first crime, almost 25 years before Cheese Louise.

An abusive ex-boyfriend, a creepy stalker, and a secret she wonā€™t share with anyone. Did the cheese heiress go into hiding, or was she kidnapped?

Gertie has spent years repressing her psychic ā€œcurseā€ and hiding her powers. So when Brie Fisher goes missing, the last thing Gertie wants to do is use her abilities to try to find her. She is terrified sheā€™ll be branded a freak by her friends. But Gertie was the last person to see Brie, and she senses there is more to Brieā€™s disappearance than a friend who doesnā€™t want to be found. 

Can Gertie use her unique powers to Follow Brie, or will she be the next one to disappear? 

Luckily, witchy best friend, Louise Lightly and her hunky brother, Logan, are there to help Gertie track Brie and run interference with the suspects.

The prequel is free, but it is only available to members of my reader group, The Night Club. Do you want to join the party and download Follow Brie? Then click here to get started – easy peasy.

Thanks for following along on this journey.

That’s it for now, y’all!

How does Gertie Pratt know Louise was murdered? Her faulty psychic powers told her so. Even though itā€™s the first psychic nudge sheā€™s had in nearly thirty years, its meaning is clear. But convincing the police proves to be harder than a stale wedge of Parmigiano Reggiano. 

Before she knows it, Gertie is knee-deep in a murder mystery and at her witā€™s end. She has more suspects than bees in a hive, and nothing is ever as easy as it seems. And with a smarmy landlord trying to shut down the shop, a coven of witches closing in, and Gertieā€™s cheating husband topping her suspect list, has Gertie bit off more than she can chew? Luckily, Louiseā€™s brother, Logan, arrives in town just in time to help Gertie in her hunt for the killer. As a retired police detective, he has the skills she needs. But now that the killer has Gertie in his sights, will Loganā€™s dark good looks prove too much of a distraction? 

Cheese Louise is the first book in the Cheese Louise paranormal Cozy Mystery Series.
