Convinced that the elderly lady in her care didn't die of natural causes, Macy's friend Della determines to look into the broken relationships surrounding the woman. She books a Halloween-themed getaway at a local inn and talks Macy into coming along with her to spy on her prime suspect.

As they join a ghost tour of the candlelit town, Macy and Della feel their guide is a little too fanatical as he shares his spooky tales. He tells the story of the Greenbrier ghost, a newlywed who supposedly came back from the grave to tell her family that her husband murdered her.

When a disturbing apparition makes its presence known, guests at the inn become apprehensive...and for good reason, because soon after, a young bride turns up dead. Although everything points to a copycat killer replicating the historical Greenbrier murder, Macy has her doubts. She's discovered that the inn harbors secrets of its own, and when she pokes into one darkened corner too many, she might not stand a ghost of a chance.

Join siblings Macy and Bo Hatfield as they sniff out crimes in their hometown...with plenty of dogs along for the ride! The Barks Beans Cafe cozy mystery series features a small town, an amateur sleuth, and no swearing or graphic scenes.

Excerpt

Copyright 2021 @Allie York

Hey, sweetheart? God his voice is sexy; like every romance hero Ive ever read about in one human. He kind of looks like one too. Eden?
Not your sweetheart, I mumble, rolling over to face him.


Yeah, I know. Does he sound disappointed? Or am I really tired? Our five-hour trip just got extended until this wreck clears up.


I roll back over. Okay. Then I realize that I was face to face with him which means hes not driving. He has this crooked half-smile on his face thats wow. Ace is crouched so that our noses are barely three inches apart. Were not moving.


Nope. Ace pops the p and gives me a pitying look.


Its fine, I dont even know what Im going to say to my sister when I get there. I sit up and a big hand comes out to stop me. I blink and realize I nearly hit my head on the top bunk. I guess Im not awake yet. Thanks.


Ive ended up with many a goose egg because of this bunk. Ace laughs and I swoon. Like I literally make a swooning sound. He smirks at me, and I roll my eyes. I can feel how red my face is and make sure to not look at him. Your burger is up here.


You got me a burger? My stomach growls.


I figured youd feel better and be hungry after a nap. He gets back in the drivers seat, folding his long legs to get up there. I squeeze through and pick up my burger before I sit down. There are red tail lights as far as I can see. Great.

Now, I need to know that you didnt steal that car. I also need to know youre not sixteen or something.


My burger is halfway to my mouth, but I stop to answer him. Ill be twenty in a few days. Ace shakes his head and rubs his bearded jaw. Is there something wrong with that? Im not sixteen, youre not endangering a minor. I take a bite of the burger. Its not warm anymore, but Im starving, so I really dont care.


Am I harboring a fugitive? Ace watches me chew the burger.


I shake my head. Ive driven that car since I was sixteen. Its always been my car, but my parents do own it. I think they want me back more than they want the car. They can buy a new car, Im the last daughter they can marry off. As soon as I say the words, I cover my mouth. I did not mean to say so much.


Marry off? With a quick glance at the still cars around us, he turns in his seat to look at me. Spill it.


I get a question before I answer yours. I talk around the bite of burger. Ace pretends to think, eyebrow arched, tapping his chin. I giggle and he smiles. God hes hot, rugged, manly.


Ill answer your question.


How old are you?
I caught him off guard. Good. Ace clears his throat. Thirty-three. My eyes widen. Practically ancient. He glances back up at the traffic then those emerald eyes land on me again.


Youre not ancient. Older than I would have guessed, but you thought I was sixteen. I shrug and pop the last bite of burger in my mouth.


Too old for you. He holds my gaze when he says it and I can feel the heat rolling off him in waves. Oh wow.

Can the reunion of Ghost Healers, Inc. untether the troubling spirits near Ellens fixer-upper, or will their discoveries be too much for them this time?

Goodreads / Amazon / Barnes Noble / iBooks / Kobo / Google Play

EXCERPT:

Ready for our hike? Tanya asked.

Do pigs fly? Sue said with a laugh.

The sooner we do our hike, the sooner we can get on the road to Santa Fe, Ellen pointed out. Just think, in five hours, we could be shopping in the plaza.

Is that supposed to motivate me? Thats just what Im looking forward to, more walking.

Oh, come on, Sue, Tanya said. This will be more of a stroll than a hike. I promise.

Ellen and her friends put on their walking shoes and then took the trail beside their cabin into the canyon.

Ellen breathed in the cool, morning air. The beauty of the canyon elevated her mood. Some of the stone formations were thick and striated, while other rocks formed mounds of crushed granite. In the distance was a tall formation that reminded Ellen of the sphinx.

Watch your step, Tanya said from up front as she stepped over a large rock.

This feels so good, Ellen said from where she took up the rear. I feel like were one with nature.

And nature is so majestic, isnt it? Tanya said. Doesnt that big rock look like the tower of a magical castle?

I thought it looked more like the sphinx, Ellen said.

Sue shook her head. You see a castle and Ellen sees a sphinx. What does it say about me that I see a penis?

Tanya scoffed. You know what it says about you.

Dont tell Tom, Sue warned. Hell say my mind is in the gutter.

Isnt it? Ellen asked.

Yes, but theres no need for Tom to know that.

The three friends chuckled. Ellen realized that if someone had overheard Sue, they might think she was a promiscuous woman who hid her extramarital interests from her husband, but her friends knew she just liked to make people laugh.

Tanya asked, You think theres any truth to what that psychic said about there being a shade in Santa Fe? What if there is? What if he confronts us?

Oh, Tanya, Sue said, you know as well as we do that there are ghosts everywhere. Im sure theres more than one shade in Santa Fe.

But why would the psychic warn us? Tanya wanted to know.

If anyone can handle a confrontation with a ghost, its us, Sue said. Dont let fear get in your way of having a good time.

Ellen heard a shriek as Tanya stopped short.

Tanya? What are you screaming about? Ellen asked from the rear.

That wasnt me, Tanya said, backing up. It was that tarantula. See it?

On the trail two feet in front of Tanya, a hairy tarantula stood on its hind legs shrieking like a small child. The spider was as big as Ellens hand.

Turn back Sue said, as she pushed Ellen in the direction from which theyd come. Ive had enough of nature for one day.

So much for not letting fear get in the way of having a good time, Ellen teased.

I can handle just about anything but a hairy spider, Sue said. Especially one that screams.

As the holiday approaches, Drew and Cleevs decide things have to change. Still, with their careers and two professional hockey teams in the way, how can they score the game-winning goal and save everything they cherish most?

Excerpt

I arrived at the Hilton about three oclock. Todd wasnt due for another couple of hours, so I took a shower and dressed in jeans and an Ice T-shirt. Afterward, I switched on the TV but was too excited to be still, and I must have walked back and forth to the window a hundred times. When the news came on, I settled into a chair to watch. Someone knocked on the door a few minutes later.

Running over, I pulled it open, and there he was. Wearing a gray peacoat and matching beanie, with a messenger bag slung over his shoulder, Todd looked like a Hollywood heartthrob. He broke into a crooked grin.

Hey. My breath had caught in my throat, and I couldnt get anything else out. Hey.

My pulse raced as my sight and hearing went into overdrive. I couldnt tear my eyes away from him.

Drew? You think I could come in?

Oh yeah. I grinned and stepped aside. Please.

He rolled his suitcase in and set it and his messenger bag beside the dresser while I made sure the door was locked. When I turned, he placed a finger on the tip of my nose and traced it down to my lips. You get more beautiful every time I see you.

Im so glad youre here.

He reached for me, and I relaxed into the safety of his arms. The relief of being held was profound. As a hockey player and captain of all my teams since high school, Id always had to be

strong. Before I met Todd, as a closeted gay man, I rarely had hookups because there was too much risk of being recognized. When I occasionally met up with someone, what we did wasnt about affection or support; it was about getting off.

Love you, Drew.

Oh, Todd. I nibbled his lip, and when he hugged me tighter and kissed me, the heavy burden of my loneliness fell away. I relaxed for the first time in a while.

Im happy you could come and spend the night, he whispered between kisses. I leaned back to look at him. His face was flushed, and his eyes were already dark with arousal. Sliding a hand up his back, I cupped his head. His mouth twitched as I moved in, and he moaned softly when our lips touched. I pressed against him, not ready for the moment to end but needing more.

Slowly, he glided his hands down my back to my butt, and we teased each other. When he licked my lips and probed softly, I opened for him. His tongue reassured me somehow, and I sucked it while my senses did somersaults. Hints of cedarwood and iris, mixed with his soft musk, surrounded me. We were both hard, and a thrill flickered up my spine as we rubbed our cocks together. Tiny, needy sounds filled the air while we enjoyed a taste of what was to come. I pulled away, took his hand, and started toward the bed. Come with me. He didnt move, and I turned to look at him.

I should shower. Its been a long day, and Im not at my freshest.

Taking a step forward, I gave him another kiss and whispered, I like you this way, remember? My sweaty D-man.

He gulped a breath. Lead on, then.

We took our time undressing each other. When I removed Todds shirt, I gaped at his impressive physique as always: brawny arms, massive pecs, and a rippling six-pack. A large tattoo, a beautiful depiction of a wolf in the forest, ran from the nape of his neck to the middle of his back. Todd said it symbolized loyalty and family, as well as a willingness to become ferocious to protect what was dear to him. Hed told me he wanted to have one about us done on his chestover his heartand wed design it together when our relationship was no longer a secret.

I dream of waking up and being someone elsemy hair, my eyes, even my voice, completely differentand each time I go to the mirror to check my reflection, to see what I look like, Im her. Every time. Her. Its her reflection that stares back at me, but Im the one who controls it. Im in control, and thats exactly why it feels so good.

And I have him. Hes minejust mine now. Im not the other woman anymore. Im everything he needs. I can be both the wife and the whore. Im a better version of myself and a better version of Miss Perfection.

But most importantly I have control.

Ive never had control.

Then, my eyes open to the real worldright when hes kissing me in the dream, before he can tell me Im the love of his life and that he only thinks of me.

I wonder if he lies to her like he lies to me every time we see each other. Does he tell her he loves her? And why? Why does he love her?

She does nothing for him, besides being her.

I love you for what you do for me

Those are his words of love for me. In the moment, they mean everything, but they dont stay long. They vanish with himwith my dream.

Im jealous of what he says to her; I hate the way he looks at her.

No secret meetings, no hiding, no masks to disguise ourselves Everything is out in the open in my dream. I wonder what that would feel like, to live our love out in the open.

Before I wake up completely, I feel this resentment; the rage resurfaces.

Would he be mine if it werent for her? Would he have married me, if it werent for her? I start to lose control again. I want what she has. I want him.

I open my eyes and stare at the ceiling for a few minutes. I have no reason to get out of bed so early. Im alone, and I spend the first moments of my dayof each single day of my lifewondering if hes sleeping close to her, if hes breathing her scent Wondering if and when hell call me.

I have no control. He decides. He sets up our meetings. He tells me where and when. My role is to be there on time and the way he wants it. Possibly naked.

Its only when I get his text that I have the incentive to get up. It changes my day. I work around our meeting, I do what I have to do and I hope time flies to the moment when Ill see him again.

My whole existence revolves around him.

And is focused on how I can be more like her.

I would do anything, anything, Doctor. Anything to be her.

Breaking all her own rules, she agreed to one date and the promise of a night of pleasure she'd never forget.

We could be spending it doing other things, but

Hand me a paint brush. He ignored her comment and went on to trimming in around the window frame, sighing.

She was still holding out on him. Refusing to admit they were more than just friends. He was afraid to admit it, but he may have officially been friend-zoned; that is, if you cuddled in bed and literally slept with friends. A month later, and he couldnt get her to agree that there was something going on between them.

Theyd been spending all their free time together, getting to know each other, falling asleep in each others arms. But still, nothing. Shit, case in point, she had somehow recruited him for projects around her house, and he wasnt even getting sex out of the deal. He was in way over his head with this one.

He may be selfish, but at least he wasnt sleeping in the barracks every night and dealing with the ridiculous Texas Heat during the day.

Hed tried everything to get through to her, though. Confessed his feelings every chance he got. Maybe that was it? Maybe he was coming on too strong. If he laid low, he feared hed lose her all together.

Youre thinking awfully loud over there. Lacey pulled his attention away from his mind that was running in circles.

The filter between his brain and his mouth had clearly been damaged by paint fumes. Arent you ready to give in yet and admit that theres more going on here?

Turning toward him, Lacey batted her lashes. Whatever do you mean? Theres a lot going on here, Bryce. In case you havent noticed, were in the middle of a remodel. Theres more than just painting that needs to be done.

Tease. Youre a goddamn tease, Lacey. He dropped his paintbrush and stalked in her direction. Maybe if he gave her just a taste, she would change her mind.

No comments: Widdershins (Widdershins, Book 1) By Helen Steadman Narrated by Christine Mackie Blog Tour! #HistoricalFiction #Widdershins #Witches #Audiobook #BlogTour #CoffeePotBookClub @hsteadman1650 @maryanneyarde @helensteadmanauthor @coffeepotbookclub

Book Title: Widdershins

Series: (Widdershins, Book 1)

Author: Helen Steadman

Narrator: Christine Mackie

Publication Date: 25 June 2021

Publisher: Impress Books

Audiobook Length: 8.5 hours

Genre: Historical Fiction




The new audio book of
Widdershins is narrated brilliantly by talented actor, Christine Mackie, from Downton Abbey, Coronation Street, Wire in the Blood, and so on.


The first part of a two-part series, Widdershins is inspired by the Newcastle witch trials, where 16 people were hanged. Despite being the largest mass execution of witches on a single day in England, these trials are not widely known about. In August 1650, 15 women and one man were hanged as witches after a Scottish witchfinder found them guilty of consorting with the devil. This notorious man was hired by the Puritan authorities in response to a petition from the Newcastle townsfolk who wanted to be rid of their witches.


Widdershins is told through the eyes of Jane Chandler, a young woman accused of witchcraft, and John Sharpe, the witchfinder who condemns her to death. Jane Chandler is an apprentice healer. From childhood, she and her mother have used herbs to cure the sick. But Jane soon learns that her sheltered life in a small village is not safe from the troubles of the wider world. From his fathers beatings to his uncles raging sermons, John Sharpe is beset by bad fortune. Fighting through personal tragedy, he finds his purpose: to become a witchfinder and save innocents from the scourge of witchcraft.


Praise for Widdershins:


The Historical Novel Society said of Widdershins: Impeccably written, full of herbal lore and the clash of ignorance and prejudice against common sense, as well as the abounding beauty of nature, it made for a great read. There are plenty of books, both fact and fiction, available about the witch-trial era, but not only did I not know about such trials in Newcastle, I have not read a novel that so painstakingly and vividly evokes both the fear and joy of living at that time.


Trigger Warnings:


Domestic abuse, rape, torture, execution, child abuse, animal abuse, miscarriage, death in childbirth.

Author Bio:

Dr Helen Steadman


Dr Helen Steadman is a historical novelist. Her first novel, Widdershins and its sequel, Sunwise were inspired by the Newcastle witch trials. Her third novel, The Running Wolf was inspired by a group of Lutheran swordmakers who defected from Germany to England in 1687.

Despite the Newcastle witch trials being the largest mass execution of witches on a single day in England, they are not widely known about. Helen is particularly interested in revealing hidden histories and she is a thorough researcher who goes to great lengths in pursuit of historical accuracy. To get under the skin of the cunning women in Widdershins and Sunwise, Helen trained in herbalism and learned how to identify, grow and harvest plants and then made herbal medicines from bark, seeds, flowers and berries.

The Running Wolf is the story of a group of master swordmakers who left Solingen, Germany and moved to Shotley Bridge, England in 1687. As well as carrying out in-depth archive research and visiting forges in Solingen to bring her story to life, Helen also undertook blacksmith training, which culminated in making her own sword. During her archive research, Helen uncovered a lot of new material and she published her findings in the Northern History journal.

Helen is now working on her fourth novel.
