Napa Valley winery manager Nikki Sands is full of Christmas cheer and anticipating an exciting family vacation to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico to bring in the New Year. Along with her husband Derek, his brother Simon, and Simon’s partner Marco they head for sun, surf, and sand expecting to enjoy some serious R & R. However, things turn dark rather rapidly when Nikki uncovers a dead body washed up on the shore. The victim, a woman who goes by the name Dream, was staying at the same hotel as Nikki, and seemed like a troubled soul. When someone who Nikki believes did not commit the crime is arrested, in typical Nikki Sands fashion she goes on the hunt for a killer. This time she not only receives a little help from Simon and Marco, but also—surprisingly—from her newlywed husband Derek. When a second body turns up though, Nikki & Co. begin to realize that they might be in way over their heads on this one, as it looks like a Mexican Cartel could have a hand in the murders. With car chases, masterful disguises, and a couple of Chihuahuas wearing ponchos and sombreros, Nikki will have to find who is behind the murders quick, or possibly find herself and her family six-feet under. This box set contains: A Killer Margarita Dog Gone Dog A Perfectly Purloined Pinot Cooking by the Book

Intent on unraveling the cold case of her parents’ mysterious demise, Jett's return is marked by a chilling discovery: the bodies of Mayor Peabody and his panicked lover hidden under her guest bed. With the help of her best friend, police detective Gwen Stuart, and Sophia DeLuca, her live-in dog nanny with mafia ties, Jett finds herself embroiled in a perilous investigation. Escalating violence—a bombed dive boat at her parents’ underwater crash site, a car explosion, and a thwarted attack by an armed intruder, all point to an adversary determined to keep lethal secrets buried. As they delve deeper, the trio confronts a conspiracy that threatens not only to silence them forever, but also to shatter the serene facade of Banyan Isle. Book 2 – Dropped Dead The serene life of apprentice private detective Jett Jorgensen is disrupted by a series of grim events on Banyan Isle, Florida.

Jett's situation is complicated by Mona Wang, a new associate harboring a lethal secret that threatens everyone involved. The situation spirals out of control with the kidnapping of Jett's dog nanny, prompting Jett to enlist the help of ex-SEALs. However, the danger hits closer to home when Jett herself is kidnapped, teetering on the brink of becoming the next victim in a chilling chain of events. Book 3 – Dead Ends Jett hosts a Mystery Fest at her Valhalla Castle, attracting mystery enthusiasts worldwide. The event quickly turns sinister when a British MP is found murdered, initiating a series of deadly events that plunge the gathering into chaos. Amidst the opulence, a séance led by renowned author Lady Amelia Ainsworth uncovers disturbing secrets, casting suspicion on the distinguished guests. As the body count rises, Jett, equipped with her keen intuition and a connection to the spirit world, is forced to navigate a complex maze of deceit to uncover the killer.
