Escape to Monrovia, where the lavender lattes are blooming, the Duke might just steal your heart—and murder lurks behind every turret! A #1 Amazon Bestseller in Animal Cozy Mystery, Culinary Cozy Mystery, and Cozy Books, Bookstores, & Libraries Mysteries!!!

When Rebecca Orange is dumped by her boyfriend and fired from her job in the same breath, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom. But fate has other plans. A surprise job offer whisks Rebecca-- and her Tibetan Mastiff dog, Joe-- to the storybook country of Monrovia.

There, in a centuries-old castle straight out of a dream, she’s tasked with caring for the royal menagerie. The locals are eccentric, the flower shop smells like heaven, and the castle's broodingly handsome Duke might just be harboring a crush… or a secret.

Life in Monrovia is nearly perfect—until the castle’s head architect turns up dead. Worse, Rebecca’s closest new friend is the prime suspect.

Now, between sipping tea in sun-drenched courtyards and dodging over-curious nobility, Rebecca must unravel a tangled mystery that threatens to bring everything crashing down. But she’s not about to let this fairy tale end in tragedy.

Filled with humor, heart, and a dash of romance, Mystery at Monrovia Castle is the perfect blend of cozy charm and edge-of-your-seat intrigue!
